Summer Bucket List: Flagstaff {Day 3}

Miraculously, I was able to keep the surprise of the Pedersen girls coming to Arizona a TOTAL secret from my girls!  I planned on meeting up with them in Williams once they got into town which was supposed to be around lunch time.  At first, we thought we would meet at the Deer Farm or Bearizona, but since they hadn't eaten yet, we decided to meet up in Williams for lunch first.

We had never really explored that town, despite doing the Polar Express there twice, so it was fun to walk around for a little bit while we waited on them to get there.  Williams is on Route 66, so there were tons of kitschy little shops to explore!

We met the crew at a pizza place right on the main strip in Williams, and got our table a few minutes before they got there.  Of course, Olivia IMMEDIATELY questioned why there were 8 places set at the table!  You can't get anything past her, I swear!  Anyway, she was TOTALLY surprised when Kendall walked in and the first thing she said was, "So THAT'S why there are 8 spots here!"

After a big, long lunch.  We loaded all of the girls into our car and had Doug drive solo to Bearizona so we could save a few bucks on admission!  ;)  When we parked, we walked around, watched the bird show, and then took the bus ride!  It was so pretty and so much fun!  I loved looking at the confused looks on all the faces of the passersby as they tried to figure out what was going on with these four blondes all dressed in overall shorts!  Ha

After Bearizona, we went in to Flagstaff and walked around a bit.  It was SO crowded and most of the restaurants had a long wait, so we ended up getting Chick-Fil-A and Chipotle for dinner.  The day went by so quickly, but I'm SO thankful we were able to get together.  I can't wait for our next adventure!
