boy, was it grand

(1) Grand Canyon, AZ
(2) Montezuma Castle, Flagstaff, AZ, with my bro

I'm baaaack! Whew, that was a crazy few weeks I just had there. It's nice to be back at school, getting back into the groove of things. Funny thing is, I'm only back for 2 weeks until xmas break starts! Geez.

The Grand Canyon was an incredible sight. We hopped on a shuttle bus that took us all along the South Rim, stopping at various viewpoints along the way. It wasn't too crowded, since we went on Thanksgiving Day, which made it even that much more scenic. I found out that my aunt and uncle actually rafted the Colorado River, and now the wait list for that trip is 10 years long! Boy would it be worth it, though.

My favorite part of the trip was actually just driving through Arizona, admiring all the red rocks of Flagstaff and Sedona (picture 1). So vibrant, soooo INCREDIBLE.

Mom cooked us a Thanksgiving feast, too. On the menu: turkey, mashed potato/cauliflower, butternut squash, green beans, and asparagus. We're into the veggies. :) Thanks, Mom!

I hope you all had a safe and fun Thanksgiving. Happy Holidays! I bet you're all gearing up for Christmas already...I sure am!

Peace and Love,







P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ALEX!!! He's the big 2-1 now! I hope all your birthday wishes come true. ;)

  2. Thanks for posting pictures of your trip to the Grand Canyon. I've lived my entire life in Southern California (up until two months ago) and I've never seen the Grand Canyon. My husband and I had planned on visiting last summer (2008), but then something came up. we never made it. Hopefully soon!

    Again, thanks for posting your pictures!
