My folks came in through town and stayed with us for the last two days. We went out to breakfast in Black Canyon, Nahtan had heard about an Omish breakfast joint that was to die for, and then we drove up to Rock Springs, just north of Anthem and got some fresh peaches and home made jams from their little farmers market.
After making all the food for the picnic, we loaded up a stupid amount of gear, amazingly enough we used every single thing we brought, and headed to the park. We were all hungry, so we ate first thing.
We were there about 4 hours and had a great time. We fished, fed the ducks, played Frisbee, and took some naps. No one caught a fish but Frisbee was a blast. Katherine insisted upon inspecting the quality of the Frisbee before allowing us to play. She approved and we were off. My Dad played as well but due to camera malfunction I didn't get any pictures of him.
That night we BBQ'd and then my folks babysat so Nathan and I could go out for a bit after dinner. We went and got some ice-cream and then headed to a local bar for a few drinks and a few games of pool. We had a great time and were home by 9:30 - Perfect.
My parents left this morning and are on their way to Colorado to pick up their Motor Home. It's been at my Aunt and Uncle's house for awhile so they are retrieving it and bringing it down for the winter. We're trying to coordinate their return trip so maybe we can meet them at Lynx Lake and camp for a day or two.

those were some pretty awesome frisbee action shots. haha! Now that the weather has cooled off, I'm hoping to spend a lot more time at the park. By the way- how on earth did you get Kate to fall asleep outside like that?! She's just amazing I guess. Or not as stubborn as Asher... :) Are they still selling peaches? How far up north is it?
