SEDONA

During Spring Break we went with 4 other couples to Sedona for a little vacation with no kids. Notice the smile on my face as I sit and actually eat my lunch while enjoying the beautiful canyon instead of the alternative: running around trying to get little people fed first, worrying about someone falling in to the river, making sure sunblock is applied and trying to talk the boys out of throwing rocks at each other.
We all stayed together in a big house and went hiking (lots to choose from in Sedona), swimming, played tennis, yoga (that was just the girls), games, and out to eat.
The Haymores, Hardings, Whites, us and the Crowthers all checking out some really cool Indian ruins.
Tania talked me in to trying to feel young and stupid again and we jumped off a cliff at Grasshopper Point.
I was scared, but I was a big girl and went for it!
The water was freezing and I had water up my nose for two days, but of course it was a blast and I really did feel young and STUPID once again.
Matt and I feeling the "VORTEX" and loving spending time together.
We were told that the Indian men would sit around in the Kiva and weave baskets while the women did all the real work...
We thought that was pretty funny!! Good thing times have changed.
On our way home we caught a session at the Mesa Temple which was a wonderful ending to a wonderful trip. A huge thank you to Paul and Trisha (who is prego to boot) for watching our 4 kids. The kids were so excited for us to leave so they could play with Brig and Raegan. You guys are the BEST and we so appreciate your willingness to help us out. THANK YOU!!!
