THE GRAND CANYON WITH THE COLEMANS

In July Jenny and the kids stayed with us for a couple days on their way home to Texas from there summer vacation in Idaho. We went to the Grand Canyon (less than 2 hours away) and had a great time. Unfortunately Trenity had to work that day and couldn't come with us but we live close enough to take him later.

I wish I could put all the pictures on here but there's too many. We saw ancient Indian ruins, the kids all earned there Junior Ranger Badges, and we saw the Canyon from every angle (even at Sunset!)


The Watchtower at Desert Point. We had fun climbing up to get our first view of the Canyon from the top!





Goofing around after our picnic lunch.

Getting sworn in as Junior Rangers. They had to complete lots of fun educational activities about the Canyon's geology, wildlife, and history throughout the day to earn these. They had a blast and learned stuff too!



Sunset!

Canyon at the Grand Canyon!!! And both Canyons are just as AWESOME!!!
