Labor Day 2009

One of Dustin's dental school friends has a great-grandpa who acquired some property in the White Mountains of Arizona (near Greer, AZ) sometime in the 60's. Lucky for us, the family has maintained the property beautifully and the friend invited us and some other dental school buddies to spend the weekend there. Despite rain and thunder and lightning, we spent a relaxing weekend in the mountains with temperatures nearly 30 degrees cooler than in Mesa--what a welcome reprieve! The kids and the dog loved the wide open spaces, Dustin and I loved the quiet. Thanks Buehler's and all who came for a great weekend!


Somewhere, Over the Rainbow

This red swing was made from a truck axel and set at a tilt so that the person on the other side is facing the opposite direction. It turns around and around and is super fun!










The pond was fun--Savannah decided to throw her jacket in to "clean" it while everyone was fishing. No fishing pics unfortunately, but four were caught!

This is the "cabin" we stayed in. It is bigger than our house with totally retro decor. I loved it! The windows on the north side were huge and looked out over the meadow you see in front. The lightning was beautiful from there.
