Impromptu Trip to Prescott

While we were at the zoo on Thursday, we noticed some very dark clouds that looked like they might produce some snow. As we were walking to the car, Chris and I commented on how fun it would be to take a last-minute trip to the snow. As soon as we got home, I got online and started my research. And lucky for us, we found a great little apartment that just had a cancellation.

The Terrace (top-level apartment)

So... I spent the rest of the evening getting laundry done, and things packed so we could spend a few days in Prescott. We were excited!

When we arrived at the rental, we were pleased that it was even better than the pictures! It was the perfect size for the four of us (we even got to bring Chloe)! We got things settled and then were off to see our friends, Meghan and Kirk, who recently had twins!

Madelyn was especially excited to "meet the babies." She hasn't really been around babies yet, so we were also anxious to see her reaction to them once we got there.

I don't have too many pictures (can you believe it!) as we jumped right into catching up because it had been such a long while since we had seen Kirk and Meghan. I did have Chris snap a couple photos with his phone, so here's what we got:

I think we're holding Karlee here...

Madelyn was a bit leery at first of holding them. She wanted me to hold them and then she could just look. Meghan showed her how they would squeeze her finger, and she eventually opened up to the idea of trying that. It was sweet to watch Madelyn with them. She got to help feed them, and even "helped" with diaper changes. Well, she didn't really want to help with that, but she wanted to be around to give her input. ;)

It was a relaxed evening catching up with good friends! Hopefully we'll get to see them again before we leave!
