MUD slinging in Prescott

Dad picked us up a new (2008) Toyota Sequoia. Same day, we drove it up to Prescott in the MUD and Rain! It was a crazy night trying to get the new car registered and insuranced, so that we could haul up a Razor Quad and play on it for a day. I was hesitant because of the rain and mud, but we had promised the boys that we would go....so we went. It. Was. Fun!

Aunt Flo and Uncle Richard were so sweet and hospitable. We were so happy to be in their warm and friendly home, even though we got up there pretty late at night. We got up and prepared for our crazy adventure. Lots of trash bags to keep them "dry" and towels for afterwards. Jared was super happy and in his element with the wheelies and fast driving. I drove in the safer vehicle with little Levi (who fell asleep!?).  After an hour and a half, with the boys soaked from head to toe with mud (and Austin in tears b/c he was so cold), we stopped.  It was a freezing strip down and into Aunt Flo's car to warm up. I was so grateful for a heater, blankets, beef jerky and 80's music to keep us happy and warm! She is so great about letting loose and having fun with us, despite the mess.  We power washed the Razor, drove back super fast (in the rain) to return it to Tempe in time, where Jared and I then hit the temple (still muddy!) A busy weekend.
