Grand Wedding and Grand Canyon

Grandpa Albert decided to get hitched and we wouldn’t miss it! Augi was super excited because she had never been to a wedding. Emmett was excited about the swimming pool but informed me that he “hates ceremonies.” Grandma Mimi was excited to get out of the house to try out her bionic hip. Christian wanted to see the Grand Canyon.

We hopped in the car early Saturday, drove 360+ miles south, swam at the hotel, attended the wedding, went to sleep, woke up early, went for a swim, drove 185 miles to the Grand Canyon, then drove 420 miles home. We arrived late Sunday night. Nothing like driving 1000 miles in 36 hours! W00-woo!

Who would’ve guessed that the favorite stop would be a fuel stop in a weird little Mormon Polygamist town?

This was my first time at the Grand Canyon. The trip was short and sweet…and well worth it!

That's a road trip I can respect. Lots of miles and lots of exhaustion! I haven't seen the Grand Canyon yet, so we'll have to add that to our list. Looks like fun, and it's so fun to see pics of you guys. I don't recognize the ride - is that new or is it Grandma's?
