Jacob Arrives in Phoenix

We picked up Jacob from the Phoenix Mesa Airport yesterday. He was excited to be where it is warm. We have a big week planned. Tomorrow we will be in California playing at the Imperial Sand Dunes.




We took Jacob to Uncle Les and Aunt Yvonne's for supper. It was the first time to meet his cousins Abby and Evan.










After supper we drove up to South Mountain, which is believe or not, south of Phoenix.




You can see the city lights for miles and miles.
