Grand Canyon






I'm a little late getting these pictures of our trip to the Grand Canyon on here. It was really hard for me to choose which ones were my favorites. When we first decided to go to Arizona for Keith's graduation, I knew right away that we would have to go to the Grand Canyon. I couldn't be three hours away and not get to see it. Well, the drive was definitely worth it. It was absolutely unbelievable. Words cannot describe it. Neither can any picture, but I had to share them anyway! We all had a great time, but we only had a day to see it and that wasn't enough. I would love to go back and go hiking or take the helicopter tour(I'll start saving for that part now). Chloe could only tolerate so much, and by the end of the day, she was asleep in the car. Keith and I would take turns going to look with the boys. I'm sad that not everyone will get a chance to see the Grand Canyon. Of course we all know that it's big, but seriously it was beyond anything I could imagine. We got to see a California Condor too. They are very endangered birds that are trying to make a come back. They have a nine foot wing span!! The last picture is life size. Pretty crazy!

Glad you like the picture Lance. What makes it even funnier to me is that it isn't entirely posed. Keith told Avery to act like the condor was getting him, and that's what he did.
