Phoenix!!!! Nascar and Baseball!!!

A couple weekends ago Kara, MaCail and I decided to pack up and go to Phoenix for the weekend for a Nascar race and a baseball game. I was excited to go to another Nascar race (redneck I know!) and I had never seen a professional baseball game so I was excited for my first experience at that also :) We left Friday at about 3 and made a few stops on the way. We went up over Jacob's Lake. I've been to Phoenix, but never that way before so it was exciting for me to see places I've never been to.
Here I am in a rock that we found on the way. I'm not sure sure where we even were, but the rocks were cool so we decided to stop and take pictures.

Here we are at Lee's Ferry with the Colorado River behind us.


On Saturday before the race we stopped at the Mesa Temple and walked around. I loved the outside looks of this temple. It would have been neat to go in and do a session. Next time :) I'm thankful every time I go to a different temple that I am now able to go inside and I don't have to sit outside and wish.

Taking a few pictures in the trees outside the temple.

Nascar!

After the race. The race was great, very exciting at the end!

Outside the Diamondbacks stadium.

Kara and I sat right above the Pirates pitcher's bull pen, so we got to look down on some pretty hot baseball players!

At the end of the game. It was so hot! The Diamondbacks won the game 13 to 4 I think. The most excitement was when a ball came at us. Too bad we didn't bring out mitts! It ended up about 5 rows above us.

You are starting to be quite the traveler! It looks you had a blast. You've got the Nascar thing going on now. :) Good times!
