Thanksgiving at Arizona!!

Like every year, we went to Arizona for Thanksgiving. I love it there! I love how warm it is! We left Wednesday morning around 7 and arrived at 5 in Chandler which is about 30 minutes out of Phoenix.

First stop.. Grandpa and Grandma Mabry's house! I love visiting them! They are such great people! They are my dad's grandparents. It was nice seeing them especially since Grandpa has been struggling. I love them to death and was so happy to see them!

Now onto where we're staying.. Nannie and Grandpa's house! (my mom's parents) Sorry no picture of them.. i couldn't find one. I love staying at their house though! Its so fun with all the horses and all the family that comes over!

I finally got to see my cousin, baby Andie! Cutest baby ever!

Thursday was an awesome day! We got to eat Thanksgiving dinner! My favorite meal of the whole year! The food is always delicious!

Friday was a lot of fun! We had lots of left overs and did the traditional shooting event! My uncles have all kinds of guns that we take out to the desert and shoot targets with tannerite and make things explode! Lets meet some people from this event..

Meet my cousin Haylee..
..The official bomb maker.

Meet Earl off of the T.V. show "My Name Is Earl"..
..Nah Jk! Sure looks like him though huh? This is Kendal, my aunt's brother.

Meet my studdly brother Bryson..
He just thinks he's a stud since he's shooting clay pigeons with a big gun.

Meet my mom!!.. She's the best! what else can I say?

Meet my cousin Alyssa..
I really wish I had her curly hair.. She is shooting what i call the "Terrorist Gun" because i always see terrorist with it and i forgot the real name. I think its P-90 or something??

Meet my cousin Brayden..He thinks he's really cool holding the 50 caliber. It also looks like his leg got amputated because of the bush that's in the way.. ha ha

Here's some random pictures from shooting.. Welcome to the gun show!!

What can I say? I love my mom!

My uncle Brian prepping me before I shoot his gun. No idea what it was called but it was fun!

Would you like to see what this gun (AKA terrorist gun) can do?

exactly that! That is a t.v. if you cannot tell..

This is THEE 50 caliber! This gun was huge and my favorite! I was so scared to shoot it because i hate it when guns kick and judging my the size of this gun, I was guessing it'd have a pretty good kick. But I finally got the courage and there was no such kick at all! But there was a lot of pressure that came out after I shot it. It came back and blew my hair straight back. My uncle shot it and when the pressure came back it blew his hat off. Pretty powerful thing..

The desert wasteland with a tiny bomb going off. I didn't get any pictures of the big bombs going off.. Sorry!

Saturday was filled with family activities. In the afternoon we went and saw my dad's brother Norman and his family You're always guaranteed to laugh when you go over there.


After that it was time to go back to Grandpa and Nannies house for family pictures.. you gotta love em! It went by really fast which was good!

That was the trip to Arizona and I can't wait to go back to the warm weather!
