Our Venture Into The Grandest Canyon





We woke up to quite the view. 

















Going down the canyon was all good fun. 





We found a very unfazed mule deer. 
































Hiking back up I almost died was a little more challenging. 








More unfazed wildlife. 









And last but not least a very large mule deer. 
Dad may or may not been drooling at this point.

We had an amazing trip to The Grand Canyon. It was the perfect way to end our thanksgiving week with The Calhouns'! 

I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving! Now back to reality {sigh}. 
Thanks for reading!

Let The Summer Begin (almost)

We decided we needed to get out of the valley for a few days {with summer quickly approaching and tempts reaching the 90's}, so we packed up and went to Payson for the weekend. I highly recommend going to see the Natural Bridge, pictures do not do it justice.  And I'm pretty dang impressed with Andy for hiking all day with this baby pack. It is seriously not as easy as it looks. I've got to start training...  Raja clearly had the time of her life. {per usual} We are so excited that little man is big enough to ride in the baby pack! And I'm excited Andy is able to haul the baby pack.  Raja is just excited about dirt and water {mud}.  Happy Monday, everyone. Thanks for reading :) 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. It's 2017!

We spent Christmas in Colorado with the Bucks and Phillips!  Christmas Eve dinner at The Broadmoor  Dylan, Lexie, and Tate joined us for New Years.  It was pretty tough not going home for Christmas but we had a great time with family and friends.  2016 will always hold some wonderful, challenging, and surprising memories. We are looking forward to the new year and what God has in-store for us in 2017.  For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.  Isaiah 9:6 

Keep It Simple

Yes, we are still here, alive and well in Arizona- with an all new blog page! Life is going pretty great. Andy is almost in the clinic and I am finishing up my last few weeks of work! May is going to be a big life changer for us and we are so excited for it. We're getting into the routine of the parent life, I'd say pretty well. The last 2 weeks we have gotten at least 7 hours of sleep a night! So kind of feeling like a boss right now; compliments to the baby boy- thanks for that. I've been debating a lot lately on where to go with this blog... I originally started it to keep up with our adventures in Arizona. I must say, I do enjoy going back and reading old posts and remembering all the fun times {and difficult times} we have had. However, I have decided I do not want my baby's entire life posted on blogger world for all of man kind to see- so I am going to keep the blog for memories, adventures, and thoughts but I am keeping the baby pictures to a min...
