We arrived home from Santa Fe to be surprised by cooler weather in Tempe. Instead of the 100+ days while we were away, the temp dipped into the 60's, 70's, & low 80's! We took advantage of the beautiful weather by getting outside as much as possible!
Here are some pics from the weekend
We rode our bikes to the zoo (10 miles) on Saturday morning. It was sprinkling, but didn't bother us. Got to try out the rain shield on the chariot. Jacob got to see all his favorite animals: giraffes, zebras, flamingos, orangutans, lemurs (new favorite), & elephants!

An amazing photo of the mama orangutan nursing her 2 1/2 year old!
On Sunday we met up with the Calhouns. The dad is one of Daddy's colleagues from work. They have 4 girls (10, 8, 6, & 4)! Jacob absolutely loves playing with them & trying to do everything they do. We went on a hike at Pinnacle Peak up in Scottsdale, & Jacob walked / ran the whole time. We had a minor scare when a hive of bees swarmed us (ran away to safety thankfully with no one being stung). Definitely do not want to experience that again! And Jacob fell down while trying to run after the girls & scraped up his knees & shin, but it didn't stop him. He was mostly upset that he was getting further behind the girls by falling.
Then we went to a park to play in the splash pad & sand area. It had a really cool fountain that wet the sand periodically. Jacob & the girls had a great time! Then it was time for some pizza. By the end of the day Jacob was exhausted (no nap), so after a quick bath he fell asleep in minutes!
