Arizona Trip

I had a wonderful time with Meagan the past two weekends. The last weekend in September we drove to our friends the Flaggs who live in Las Vegas, Nevada. After spending the evening a part of the next morning, we headed on down to Phoenix. We stopped at Hoover Dam to take picture of the new bridge - it is insanely high!! I tried to get a closeup with the camera so we could see the workers. It is so large that even with my new zoom lens you can barely see the workers - but it gives a great persective on the height. I told Meagan this was like seeing the Brooklyn Bridge be built!
Once across the border into Arizona we had a slight detour in Wickenburg and ended up going back up to Flagstaff and then on to Phoenix/Mesa area. We got to stay with Angie and her family for a few night and it was alot of fun. The kids were so much fun to be around and Riley got up close and personal with Meagan on our first night there ;)!
Saturday Meagan helped her uncle Brian with his booth at the home show and then we went to a Diamondbacks game with Angie and Justin - THEY WON! That made it worth the trip even though they were out of the playoffs. (We made sure to eats lots of GOOD Mexican food while we were there.
Sunday morning we had breakfast with Tom and Jody and then we headed up to Happy Jack to see G&G Sorensen and Jeff's family, we even got to ride the new Razor - and fortunately, we stayed in one piece. It was so nice to be up in the mountains and around a campfire. Meagan particularly liked being able to shower and get cozy with grandma and watch a movie (her kind of camping).
Monday morning it was off to Utah again. She wasn't feeling to well and fortunately grandma had some motion-sickness pills for her to take. They really helped. It was such fun for me to spend some time alone with my girl. We took the 89A route through Vermillion Cliffs and got out and walked around at the Navajo Bridge National Park. What a beautiful piece of country! We made it home to our boys and tried to rest up a bit for the next weekend.
