Red Rock Canyon





Here are some pictures of Ryder and I hiking on the Children's Discovery Trail at Red Rock Canyon. We collected various items from nature and LOVED every minute of it. PLEASE come back soon!

Shark reef and water park!





Over the weekend we got to do lots of different things. Some of my favorites were visiting the water park by mommy's work and going to the Shark Reef. I want Ryder to come back every weekend!

Hanging out with Ryder





Here are some great photos of my time with Ryder! I am so lucky to have Aunt Dre and Steph to watch me!

Beauty





Here are a few beautiful pictures of our trip... ENJOY!

Beaver Falls and the adventure






Here are some pictures that our friend Pam took down at Beaver Falls. (I fell crossing the river about 3 miles into it! My camera was in my pocket, hence ending the picture taking!) We went swimming in the different ponds and waterfalls. Jamie and I even dove in an underwater cave! It was AMAZING!

Mooney Falls







On Saturday we woke up and started to plan our day. There was talk of going to Beaver falls, so we decided to join in. In order to get to Beaver falls you need to first hike down Mooney falls. As you can see the ladder down is slightly scary, but we all did it. The waterfalls and hike was worth ever second of it. The day was BEAUTIFUL! Jamie got so thirsty by the end of the hike, he just had to take a drink!!

CAMPING





We had a great time around the campfire. We enjoyed our instant coffee and freeze dried meals! At night we played cards and chatted with new friends. It was a great time!!

Havasupi Village & Campground






The lower pictures are from when we first walked into the village. After 9 miles we enjoyed ice cream and soda on the grass! When we got the courage to finish the last two miles, we were quickly motivated by the AMAZING waterfalls!!! The water color is so beautiful because of the lime in the water.

On Our Way...





Here are some pictures along the trail as we hiked down to the campground. All 11 miles were beautiful!

Grand Canyon Hike: Going Down








Last weekend mommy and daddy went to hike the Grand Canyon. I was SUPER DUPER lucky because Aunt Dre, Ryder and Steph came out to play and watch me!! Mommy wanted to show everyone pictures of her trip too. Here they are!!
(This is us at the top getting ready to hike in. The rest of the pictures show the first mile and it's large elevation drop. It wasn't as bad as it looked - promise!)
