Rhett and Link and Buffalo Park

Thursday morning, March 10th, I got a call around 7:20 a.m. from Amy (my sister-in-law). She called to tell me that Rhett and Link (our family's favorite internetainers) were on their Mythical Beast Road Trip, where they would be greeting people. One of their scheduled stops just happened to be here in Flagstaff, at a local truck stop, that very morning at 8:00 a.m. Well the only truck stop I could think of is the one just five minutes down the road from us, right next to the Little America Hotel. Sure enough that was the one!

Just to give you a brief background about Rhett and Link, if you don't already know, they are hilarious! We discovered them over a year ago and we've been cracking up ever since. We love that they are so clean (no worries watching their videos with the kids) and hilarious at the same time. My twins love their "Backwards Pillow" video and beg to watch it over and over each day. If you haven't seen any of their videos I would highly recommend it. They have two You Tube channels. I would start off with their "Epic Rap Battle" video. It's one of my favorites!

Anyway, despite the fact that I was in the middle of the "morning rush", and had to get Abby to school around 8:30, and knew there was no way I was making it into the shower before leaving or even having time to put on a little makeup before heading out, I knew I couldn't pass up the opportunity. I knew my twins would love to see the "Pillow Guys". So after one attempt of driving to the truck stop (after dropping Abby off at school), thinking they were gone, driving home, calling Amy, having her talk me into driving back to the truck stop, we lucked out! It was after 9:00 a.m., and I was sure they would have been gone, but we caught them just as they were getting ready to pack up. They were so nice! Upon seeing them, Liam suddenly became extremely shy and would not come out from behind my back. Matthew was his normal self, shy as always. So it was all up to Justin. He, thankfully, was "Mister Friendly". It was a fun experience and I'm so glad Amy happened to be watching them that morning.

Liam would not look up! Such a funny kid!

This past Sunday was so beautiful we just had to get out. We discovered the Buffalo Park, not far from us, which has a two mile trail. It was so much fun to be out on a leisurely walk on such a beautiful day. We love Flagstaff! Here's some pics from our little outing.

P.S. I do have some videos to post but for some reason they wouldn't play once I had them downloaded. I'll have to figure out what's going on. Hopefully the next post.
