Grandma's fall visit.

Grandma came for a visit toward the end of September. Her visit began with the tail end of Cassidy being sick and the start of Lincoln getting sick. Luckily, a few days off of school cured them both and none of the adults caught it - phew! Lincoln thoroughly benefited form having Grandma here while he was sick as she spent lots of time reading to him and watching superhero movies with him. Good times.

The temps were still pretty steamy during her visit, so we found an indoor activity to check out -- the Arizona Museum of Natural History in Mesa, AZ.

At the entrance to the museum.

Grandma, Matt, Lincoln, and Cassidy discovering dinosaur fossils.

Lincoln looked most forward to seeing dinosaur skeletons. 
Cassidy's foot is a bit smaller than this dinosaur's foot!

Cool dino skeleton.

Even cooler cactus (in my opinion). 

Grandma, Lincoln, and Matt panning for gold. They did not hit the jackpot.

Cassidy using an old-fashioned telephone.
My parents have one just like this in their basement and it still works. So neat.

After an indoor activity, we were able to get Grandma to enjoy an outdoor activity. She joined the kids in the pool, which they absolutely loved.
