It was hot! Karis played in the inflatable pool while Makena was entertained by drinking from a water bottle.
After dinner from the grill, the girls got special treats from Nana.
After church on Sunday, I found Karis, fully clothed, in the pool. I asked her what happened and she said, "Nana got me wet!" Busted!
Makena was either going through a growth spurt or the hot Arizona heat got to her. She slept 13 to 15 hours at night (she typically sleeps 11 to 12 hours) and that was even with a 4-hour nap.
Grandma and Karis played golf in the backyard -- one of the many little toys Grandma bought for the girls.
Karis took a break from golf to play with Nana's phone.

One of Karis' favorite things to do was to take Riley for a walk and give her treats.
Karis did great on the seven hour car ride to and from Surprise. A couple of electronic toys, the iPod, snacks and an hour nap kept her content.
Makena on the other hand was a different story. She doesn't like "long" (more than 20 minutes) car rides, plus she's cutting in several new teeth. She slept only 20 minutes on the way there (at the very end) and about 40 mins on the way back. The rest of time, she whimpered and cried on and off.
On the way back, Karis said she had to go pee-pee. We were in the middle of the desert with no exit in sight, so we pulled over on the side of the highway and took out the portable potty. Derek and I were frustrated because she didn't have to go, yet she insisted that she did. We wanted to get her back in the car, not only because it was dangerous to be on the side of the freeway, but because we wanted to hurry up and get back home. But, little Miss Karis was oblivious to it all and she took her time as she enjoyed the scenery. Ahh, to be a kid again...
