Vacation Within A Vacation!!

So, here I am in Prescott Valley, Arizona! I came to visit an old friend and his family. The drive is about two hours away from where my father and grandmother live, but it is deferentially worth the drive!

I came down to Prescott from Flagstaff on Friday afternoon. I was greeted with the warmest welcome I've received in maybe forever! Well, other than my fathers dogs! Haha. Open arms, hearts and kind voices enveloped me as soon as I crossed the threshold. It was a bonus to see that my friend (Nick's) uncle, aunt and two little (well, not so little anymore) nieces had just come back from vacation. Last time I had seen Nick, or any of family was around 2007! So, his nieces looked so strange to me!! I can't believe how grown up they are now. It seems a little insane. Before their drive back home, they had to stop and pick up the multitude of critters that Nick and his family had been watching. You name it, they had it! Lizards. rats, doggies and birds- Needless to say they must have a very full home.


Nick's family is my second family (I wish they were my first, haha.) They have always treated me with nothing but love and respect! 

I will tell the rest of my tale once I am back in Flagstaff tomorrow. I had to stay an extra night here due to a monsoon. A curse and a blessing at the same time. It was my father's birthday today and I was sad to miss it. But, he worked all day so it's not like I would have been able to see him much.

Goodnight, Good Morning, and Good Afternoon World! 

Peace and Love,

Ashley
