Mommy's Joshua Tree pics

Aunt Sarah Van Chocstraw took some awesome photos in JT that I wanted to share:


































We took a tour of ye olde ranch where we learned about ranch life in the desert. PS the tour was given by Ranger JOSHUA




























We also visited a fake Western town used as a movie set back in the day. Lucy was arrested for cuteness and then busted out of jail and ran/walked slowly with help outta there!







































































Hiking photos: everyone took turns carrying The Chicken on their back and she fell asleep every time...






































The beautiful cholla cactus garden, the downside being that if you touch one the ENTIRE section of the plant DETACHES and ITS NEEDLES GO INTO YOUR SKIN.







Two common sights in our backyard:

1) Chicken napping in the hammock

2) Uncle Chris sipping a beer in the hottub

Lastly, our lovely house..

am loving the pictures, but I think mommy did something weird with the subtitles. Unless dad is trying to sabotage : ) ?

really, it's more bathtub than hot tub but it was glorious nonetheless.
