A Weekend in Sedona

We just got back from a wonderful weekend in Sedona, Arizona with Nana and B-Pa. Emma has been studying Deserts in school, so this was the perfect opportunity to take a field trip and learn first hand about the geology, animals, and culture of the area.

On Saturday morning, we all went hiking in Red Rocks State Park. Here, we were surrounded by awesome views like this :

Both Emma and Ian were great hikers

and they put B-pa's Binoculars to good use


When Ian was told that he could not walk with the binoculars, he made his own:

"I see a cactus!"

Our family close to the end of the hike

On Sunday, we went on another adventure to get even closer to the rock formations.

We went off roading on the pink jeep tours.
Where we went up and down roads like this:

We also visited and old native american  cliff dwelling called Montezuma's Castle:



That evening, we went to watch the sunset wash the rocks in color

and got some great family photos, too:





On Monday, we explored Flagstaff before flying back home. Thank You Nana and B-pa for such a fun weekend!
