The Grand Canyon

Well a couple of weekends ago we went to a horse sale in Arizona and on our way home we stopped at the Grand Canyon it was a lot of fun! Shawn had never been there and I hadn't been there since I was 9 years old so it was cool to see. WE drove home Sun. and Jake started throwing up an hour before we got home but thankfully he never threw up in the car.....so monday he was still throwing up and I had a ton of laundry and then tues. Ave satrted throwing up so last week was to busy to post so this post is kind of large but enjoy!
Ave and her dad looking at the BIG canyon as ave would say




it's a little hard to get a good family picture








Ave LOVES to climb trees!












oh brotherly love







me and nicole!








This is at the horse sale he was a little thirsty!










it's a good thing there is always dirt at horse sales










and this is from the sledding trip over the holidays this is Ave with her uncle Tyler










we had a few sleds behind the truck














again Jake at the horse sale











and this is how we sled! NO hills?

Yeah, does the throwing up ever stop? Each one of my kids took their turn over the weekend. Love it!
Those Grand Canyon pictures are awesome. I don't think Denim has ever seen it either. What's up with these Blanding boys?

I love your cute family picture at the top!! I don't think I've ever been to the Grand Canyon. I'll have to go sometime. I think I'd appreciate it more now than when I was a kid.

Ah, I am stilled bummed that you were in AZ and I didn't see you! Looks like you had fun though! Sledding behind a truck looks better than hiking up a big hill!

You know what's crazy, I was born and raised here and have never seen the Grand Canyon either. I really should venture out, those pictures look amazing. Haven't seen you forver, now that I'm not in good ol' 7th ward. We should try to get together some time, I think it would be fun!
