Our First Walk Around the Rim

Posted by Coral on December 8, 2008

It was a cold day but a good day. To see the girls eyes as they came around the corner was priceless. They both kept mentioning, in P’s words “God is amazing with His creations, isn’t He.”

This was the sight they saw:

They also had gotten their Junior Ranger books (we place this in their Lap books ); and were hard at work with their first assignment, trying to find different kinds of rocks.

We were blessed by a man who offered to take a pic. of the whole family:

Father and Son (We love our hiker pack, and so does S . This Made it easy to go where we wanted without worrying if a stroller could go there too. I can’t tell you how much we have used this thing.):

More Mule Deer:

Hope you enjoyed our first walk as much as we did.

 

Having Fun Doing Laundry?

Posted by Coral on December 8, 2008

 Back to the Grand Canyon saga. Sorry it has  been so long between posts.

Well I forgot to tell you, on the day we arrived at the GC we had to do some laundry(interesting right, just wait). This worked out great because it was raining on and off and we couldn’t do much anyway. As you moms can imagine I was thrilled to be doing laundry on vacation (it is the curse that follows me everywhere).

This time however the Lord blessed me and gave me some awesome entertainment while hauling loads back and forth. Mule Deer, were there to greet me at the door! I had so much fun being so close to them; I snapped a lot of pics. Here are just a few:

 

God is so good, to give me a break from the same old same old. Plus it was a great experience for the girls. I love His creation and that I’m part of it!
