Grand Canyon

But first - a leftover shot from Disney :)

The Grand Canyon was a great (grand?) day! The boys loved it - mostly. They still think that Yellowstone is better, the sulfar and tar pits are apparently WAAAAAAAAYYYYYY cool! I showed Matt and the boys the trailsm we hiked, and even pointed out Phantom Ranch to them - they weren't impressed with the hike -they wanted to run down and back up that afternoon. For those who don't know - it's a 9.8 mile hike....steep.... and the day we were there it was 102 at P.R. - and DRY.




Kerttu and Gerlie - our friends from Estonia. Kerttu was our AuPair for 18 months - and stayed in the U.S. an additional 18 months. She met Stephanie - but left when she was just 2 months old. It's been great having her back, and we are enjoying getting to know Gerlie as well - although I think the combo of jet-lag, a busy family, and Disneyland overwhelmed her the first few days.





We are in Las Cruces, NM tonight - it's beautiful, but HOT! Good thing they have a nice pool!
