Grand Canyon

Grand Canyon ... Here is the amazing Grand Canyon ...I think that this is the South Rim area...I will admit I was lost and we were just lucky to find a place that was fenced but still get 1000000 dirty looks for taking our kids here!!  We went to the first area that was fenced pretty good but each time you went further down the path the less fencing there was .... And don't mind the smudges on the pictures as one of our kids got ahold of it and we didn't realize it!!  




Cooper was in this picture behind Ryan even though right off to the left there is a gap where there is no fencing we noticed after he tried to run away from us in that direction .....We are more than ever thankful we survived this trip and saw this amazing site God created and met our goal that none of our kids were injured!!!!!

Chloe and her twin

This is Random - This was Chloe's last play date with her best friend Lily in Arizona.  These girls were amazing together and just loved each other.  We have been home for 2 months and Chloe still asks to play with Lily off and on as they really just loved each other!!  We miss you Lily and your family!!!!

Bedrock City - Who doesn't love the Flintstones???????

Ryan really wanted to see the Grand Canyon before we moved from Arizona  Me, I could care less about a really deep hole but I will admit it was a fun, long, day trip!  This is the first part as we drove through a town called Bedrock City.  First thing you think of when you hear Bedrock has to be FLINTSTONES!!  I know most of you will appreciate this as we grew up on this show but our kids had no idea who the Flintstones were but they LOVED this run down, cheap place for them to run and be free from the van!!  This is a must stop about 30 minutes south of the Grand Canyon!!!!








That is Reese on the left and Chloe on the right ...It was windy can you tell??





So after all this fun I am not really sure the kids enjoyed the Grand Canyon because as far as they were concerned they could call this the Grand Canyon and would have been completely satisfied!!
Since I am so behind this really happened in April 2011.
