Trip to Arizona

We really had a great time visiting Arizona, and I'm so glad we got to go before Lesley and Chad moved back. They have a better camera, so they took most of the pictures. I'll post some when Lesley gets them to me. On Wednesday we went to the Grand Canyon, which is awesome no matter how many times you've been there. On Thursday we just hung out around Prescott and went on a little "hike" (we took a blind/handicapped walking trail, which was great for sleeping Bonnie to ride in her stroller); Kellen really loved climbing on the big rocks. On Friday we went to Sedona and Jerome. Lesley has more details of that trip on her blog. Overall, we just had a great time, made more great by the fact that it was nice to be in 70 degree weather!

Aunt Lesley and Kellen at the Grand Canyon. Pictures were a little hard to get because we kept having to convince our little daredevil that it would be a bad idea to jump off the edge.

A stuffed bear in Sedona. This was about as close as Kellen wanted to get. His shirt is a gift from Lesley and says "Future Camper -- Blue Haven." Only a few more years and he'll be there! What will I do for 2 weeks in the summer without kids?

everyone should be proud of erin. she made it through an entire trip with the kids, and didn't even complain very much. if it had been just me with the kids, you'd have heard about it. oh, how you would have heard about it.

I am proud of Erin...but to Kellen and Bonnie's credit, they acted really good, especially considering all the driving and small confined space they had to stay in. We had so much fun! Erin, as soon as we get our computer here and I can get internet at our new house I'll send you those pictures or burn a CD.

Some quotes from Kellen in that pictures of the two of us:
Kellen: "That's a big rock."
Me: "Yes Kellen, that is a big rock."
Kellen: "But we can't jump." (telling me this, like I am really wanting to jump)

Kellen: "My canyon can't fly." (whatever that means)
