flat iron-superstition wilderness

Jessica, Rachel and I like to hike.  We sometimes are able to hike together.  This hike took us on the Flat Iron Trail in the Superstitions.  It was a tough, but fun hike.  We didn't make it to the top, ran out of time, but had too much fun playing in these mountains. October 2014

goofy day-goofy girls

Isabel sure loves going to our neighborhood school, Edison Elementary, because she no longer has to wear a uniform, and she can participate in dress up days.  This was some sort of 'crazy day'  and this was as crazy as we could come up with. Fall 2014 6th grade 

These girls sure are cute.  I find too many of these pictures on my phone. They love to ham it up for the camera. Fall 2014 6th grade and 8th grade

Sofia's 13th!!

Sofia turned 13 on September 14, 2014.  She is an amazing girl.  She is happy to help, loves to play the piano, loves babysitting, is involved at school in student council, ran on the cross country team, is in 8th grade at Kino Junior High, is Beehive class president, a great sister and super daughter.  We sure love her tons!

2014 Warrior cross-country

Jacob ran cross country for Westwood this year.  He had early morning practices at the high school as well as meets on most Saturdays throughout the fall.  A lot of hard work and running in the desert heat made him tough! Freshman year, 2014-15

Fall Festival 2014

Isabel's pretty selfie on the drive up to Pinetop

watching the classic car parade

Pre-race.  We all ran/walked the 2 mile fun run around Woodland Lake.

Jacob came in first in his age division. Stud.

Jacob and Kaitlin and Marc and Carson went to the classic car show.  He found a truck he likes.  I agree.

Watching the fall festival parade.  Tons of candy and fun.

On the way home from the fun run.

We all made it to Pinetop for the Fall Festival weekend this year.  It is the first time we've all been able to come up for the festival.  We had fun watching the classic car parade, the fall festival parade, running in the 2 miles fun run, and going to the car show.  Good times.

Trail to Eagle

Jacob receiving his merit badges he earned.  These are the last ones he needs to earn his eagle.  He completed his eagle project last summer.  Yay!  

Sept 2014

Jenny!

First Wessel family selfie. 

Kaitlin, Gaby, and I drove up to Pinetop on Sunday, Sept 8, 2014 to surprise Jenny for her 40th birthday.  Was fun to be there just the 6 of us again with no kids or spouses.  Visited, ate dinner, and opened presents.  It was a great day.  Drove back that afternoon.
