Hotel Lake is open!

Near the end of October, the Hotel Lake officially opened for the season.  Our first visitors were the Waters clan - they stopped through for a few days on their way home from Disneyland.  They were able to join us for our Mormon helping hands service day and our ward Trunk or Treat.  We had a great time!

Ready for some candy!
Berry the Butterfly
Spud the Punk Rocker
Our next guest was Ambie!  She has been serving a mission for 18 months and so we were all very excited to see her!  She came and celebrated Halloween with us.  
Pumpkin carving party
So glad to have the Lovells close by
Lou and Ambie - funny faces!
Spooky dinner - mouths and worms
Cute Dressed Up Girls - fancy lady, ballerina, Cinderella,
 Dorothy, Hermione,  and a  butterfly
Fisher's brother and his family came to visit with cute Wren.  We had  a nice relaxing visit - enjoying the beautiful weather at the playground, soccer games, and hiking.  Berry thought it was fun to have a little cousin to play with and particularly liked her baby doll!  This was their first time visiting us in Arizona and we hope they come back soon.

Hiking at Thunderbird - it was chilly!

 

Our final guests were Lainey's parents.  They came for a pre-Thanksgiving visit.  It was so fun to be able to spend time with them and T-man and Shar's family.  We enjoyed cooking and eating a Thanksgiving dinner together.

Very entertaining magic show!
