Ghost Town

KC and Jordan got married on a Friday, and since we traveled all the way to Arizona we decided to spend the day Saturday exploring and spending more time with family.
Saturday we were hoping to find a farmers market to get some freshly picked oranges, but we were unsuccessful. Instead, we went to a world wide market store where they had all these crazy snacks and knick-knacks. Mom, Dad, Jud, Grandma and Grandpa had to go back home on Saturday so we said our goodbyes after we bought our treats.

Kim had a friend that lives in Arizona so we went with them to a shopping mall to meet up with them. While they caught up, Kaleb and I roamed around at the different stores and tried to figure something to do later in the day. 

After much googling, thank goodness for smart phones, we found a GHOST TOWN! What!? How cool right?! It was just a short drive away, it was a perfect plan!


We definitely had to take a picture next to this awesome cacti! It was HUGE!!


All of the buildings were so old, but extremely awesome! It defintely felt like we were back in the Wild Wild West!


When we arrived, they were just finishing up with their skit. We knew that we would be able to watch it again later. I think they do it 2-3 times a day.


Of course, can't leave out the picture of the awesome rock formation! Obviously it does not give it justice!


All the props were super awesome to look around and see.


I told Tyler I needed a picture of him. He's having the time of his life!! Hopefully.....


I told them to pose, I take what I can get.


Aren't they the cutest little family!!


The only thing that would make this picture better is if Kaleb was in a top hat!


They even had the cutest little train that you could take around the mines.


Yes, that is a cactus needle in his shirt.....


We thought it was the coolest thing.... your fortune told by Pappy! What?!


Everyone meet Pappy!


I loved this little church? There was even a wedding that went on while we were there. I probably wouldn't get married here.... but the pictures would be super cool!


I kept telling Kim and Tyler I wanted to take a picture of them, she said she didn't want to get Landon out of the stroller. I told her she could just take one with Tyler. She didn't want to take a family photo without Landon! I love how much she loves her baby!


I may have gotten a little ridiculous with taking photos....


So I made Kim take a ridiculous one too.


Look at that handsome guy!


The bee wanted to try some of our Prickly Pear Lemonade. The lemonade was definetly an odd taste but at least refreshing.


We had a perfect view of the second showing. The only thing that I remember was the acting was spot on. They definitely took it super serious and was quite hilarious to watch!


That house though! I would live there, maybe with a few updates though... like indoor plumbing.


We had to be extra careful around the dinamite!


Kaleb and Tyler were the only brave ones to go into the cemetary.


I thought the outhouse was the cutest thing! (side note, why I think an outhouse is cute.... I do not know) I just had to take a picture with it.... except I about had to use the outhouse after I opened the door. The dang dummy scared the crap out of me!!!


But I still went back for my picture.


I have no idea what Tyler is doing in this picture.... but I couldn't leave it out.


Goldfield Ghost Town is the name, and we had such a blast! Thanks Kim and Tyler for coming with us!
