Adventure on the Light Rail....

So while in AZ this Christmas, Dad decided that we should all ride the new light rail to Phoenix to meet him for lunch. It was the last free day and even though we knew it would be SUPER fun with 2 kids, we decided to do it to appease dad and maybe Cooper would get a kick out of it. So we get on, Cooper is excited, it isn't too crowded and it goes pretty fast, so we were all pleasantly surprised...for 5 min. That's when all the people start piling on and I get claustrophobic and and keep falling into people everytime we take off again. THEN a guy with a wheel chair crowds his way in. We all squish together some more. That's when he pulls out a stick with a shrunken alligator head on it, complete with sharp teeth. It has some kind of animal tails hanging off the bottom and of course dear Cooper thinks it is awesome so he is tugging on the tails. Georgia is practically hoovering over the guy trying to get the stick so she ends up on the receiving end of dead alligator kisses. The guy is laughing, my mom is freaking out that the sharp teeth are poking her and I am like trying not to throw up all over the guy's lap and I can tell Cooper 50 times to dont touch the furry things but they are dangling in his face so...ICK! So much fun. Then we got to eat yummy food with everyone and dad took Cooper out like he always does so everyone can get a chance to eat before the manager demands we leave and take the crazy kid home.

Notice Drew wrestling with Cooper in the back ground. People keep telling me he is going to be a really good teenager. I hope I survive to see it.
