Since Alexander is a 4th grader this year he has a National Parks Pass. We decided to take advantage of that and visit the Grand Canyon. Sunday afternoon we drove the family down to Parks, AZ. We stayed the night in a cozy little house in the woods. After dinner we had a fun time playing in the woods.
Alex jumped into some mud and Rich was nice enough to thoroughly clean them out. It was so cozy with the fire going. We had our Come Follow Me lesson, played games, watched a little movie and rested up for our big day at the Grand Canyon.
We woke up early and drove the rest of the way to the Grand Canyon. Right as we drove into the park we saw some Elk!
We decided to hike the South Rim. The views were just amazing!
We packed in a lunch and enjoyed the scenery while we ate.
We found this cool tree to climb along the trail.
And adorable tiny pinecones.
We had such a great day experiencing the the Grand Canyon together as a family. We hope that we can make it back again someday!
