Our friends the Coes moved away to San Diego a couple of years ago. Elliot and their son Wyatt had been best buds. I was thrilled when they asked to come visit for a long weekend!
Walter and Allison in all their glory. I got to bring them back for Friday and Saturday morning volleyball. It was a real walk down memory lane!
Wyatt and Elliot still share similar interests, but did a frustrating amount of reading next to each other instead of playing with each other.
We checked out the mine for some fun photo ops
The big event of their visit was Fiesta Sahuarita. The kids enjoyed some waterslides, faceprint, and collecting freebies from the tents.
Annie predictably picked the unicorn
I asked the lady if she could do a dump truck, which was not one of her presets. She nailed it and Isaac loved it.
The plan was for Allison and I to go on the zipline while the guys watched the kids and then trade places. Unfortunately, the line ended up being super slow, but all four adults ended up going. Allison is easy to be around, and I enjoyed our chats and catching up with her.
That night we came back to see the grand finale of Fiesta Sahuarita- a drone show! It was my first time seeing something like this. It was incredible! It has the same awe factor of fireworks but with less pollution. There were hundreds of drones with lights on them that flew around in pre-programmed formations. They made themselves into dancing cactuses and spelled out messages. We didn't want to fight for parking, so we parked at the Las Quintas church building and watched from there. It was not quite the intended angle, but it was cool because we were closer to the drones and could hear them buzzing over the music blaring at the park.
