Aunt B, Zoe, and Zachy Visit!

We were so excited to have Aunt B, Zoe, and Zachy come down from Utah to visit us for the second year in a row. Zoe flew down by herself on Monday (her first plane ride by herself, what a big girl). Then Bethie and Zachy joined her on Thursday and they stayed with Grandma and Grandpa for the night.

On Friday, we went to El Encanto Mexican Restaurant in Cave Creek, per Bethie's request. Last year we went there and she had the pollo fundido which is legendary. She only ate half of it and got a to-go box to take it home. But, unfortunately she left it by the duck pond when we left. She was so sad and had been thinking about that pollo fundido for a year (see, told you it was legendary).

Fast forward to this year and we all went to El Encanto again. We had the same Mariachi sing us the same song (for the third year in a row! He sang the same one to us when we went there with the Lecce Clan in 2011). It was great and the kids (and I) loved it.

Bethie got her pollo fundido, loved it again, and only ate half of it again. And guess what? SHE FORGOT IT ON THE TABLE AGAIN!!! But luckily she has an amazing sister who grabbed it and Savannah saved the day. Bethie was grateful and said she would eat it that night or tomorrow.

The next day we went to the Rockies opening Spring Training game. It was an awesome day and it was the Roberts' first time at the new Rockies amazing facility, Salt River Fields at Talking Stick. Grandpa and I were playing golf so we showed up a couple innings late but we had a really fun time. Plus the kiddos got to run the bases which they love.

Then we were all going to go out to eat but we decided to stay in and pick up Pork on a Fork BBQ which is near our house and super yummy. It worked out well as we all pigged out (haha get it?) and the kids got to let off some steam and not embarrass us since we weren't around others.

The next day we met Grandma and Grandpa at Daily Dose for breakfast. It is a good spot with non-standard fare but the kids still loved it.

After that, Bethie and the kids had to go to the airport and the trip was over. All in all, it was a great time and we will miss them until next time.

And guess what? SHE FORGOT TO EAT HER POLLO FUNDIDO AGAIN!!! Hahaha. It was hilarious. I equated it to Final Destination where the pollo fundido's final destination is the garbage, not her stomach, no matter what she tries to do about it. 

Or maybe it isn't the garbage...

Mmmmmwaaahahahahaha!!!!
