Happy 4th of July! We celebrated the 4th at the Surprise Stadium where the Royals have their Spring training. Unfortunately, we didn't get to watch the fireworks at the stadium because of lightening storms that were going on around the area. On Saturday, we decided to take our first road trip and headed 2 hours north to Flagstaff. We started out at 8 in the morning when it was already 92 degrees in Surprise and drove past fields of cactus up into the mountains where the temperature gradually decreased and we started driving into tall aspen and pine trees. We walked around the town of Flagstaff and watched an Indian dance and then headed up to the Snow Bowl in hopes to ride the ski lift up to the top of the mountain. Once we got to the top though, it was raining & hailing and a very chilly 59 degrees so, we didn't get to ride to the top. Bryce was the only one of us who was prepared for the cold weather. We just couldn't believe that 2 hours could make such a big difference in temperature & landscape.
