My aunt turned 60 so what better way to celebrate it than a trip to Arizona to visit me and my family. Makalya came out with her too so it was a great weekend of laughter and lots of chatter.
I picked them up at the airport and we went to downtown Chandler for lunch and drinks. We did a little shopping but they loved the atmosphere and the establishments I took them to.
The next day we went to for a hike on the hyrogliphic trail. This is generally one of the easier hikes so I thought it would be a good one for them and they will get to see the beauty of Arizona.
More than halfway Margie realized it was too much for her so she decided to stay on a rock while Makalya and I finished the hike. We felt bad leaving her but she insisted we go on without her. She wasn't lonely as she chatted with everyone that walked by her. I was surprised she didn't invite random people to dinner with us that night.
Later that day we went to the clubhouse while Max was taking his golf lesson and had drinks outside by the fire.
That night we had dinner and then drinks around the fire pit in our backyard.
On Saturday morning I took the ladies to Goat Yoga that was at a farm in south Gilbert. Max decided he wanted to come with because of the animals. This was not serious yoga, but something unique and fun. We had a riot doing it. The baby goats were adorable and there were also two alpaca and a donkey roaming the yoga area.
The goats were much heavier than anticipated and Max didn't really like them on his back due to their weight.
It was such a cool experience and I would definitely do it again when guests come to town.
Following goat yoga we went to the Chandler Farmer's Market and then it was time to go home and get ready for Margie's birthday celebration. We had fondue, a fire pit and some friends over to hangout. Unfortunately I did not take one picture the night of fondue. I was just having fun entertaining and chatting with everyone.
It was such a great trip for Margie and Makalya and I was so happy to see them here. I can't wait for them to come back again.
