We Be Trippin

We've been in Arizona for a few days now, trying to keep up with Michael's nieces and nephew. It's been so nice to spend days in the playroom and sunshine instead of in cubicles.

We spent the night in Southern Utah to break up the drive (15 hrs!!). Moose loved that king size bed.

Here he is, in the lap of luxury/a cheap hotel, sticking his tongue out at the commoners.

We set off, full of a gross continental breakfast, only to sit on the highway for about an hour. Bummer. Moose and I got out and ran around in the sand for a while, which drove all the dogs in the cars absolutely bonkers. It was a little surprising that no one else got out of the car--maybe they weren't as thrilled as I was to be on vacation. I took this photo while people stared, just for you, blog reader.

Versa commerical?

Grand Canyon! Michael had never been here before. We were hunting around for someone to take our picture, which was actually quite difficult because 1) I'm overly shy when I need someone to take a picture 2) English wasn't the dominate language for 90% of the people there. We saw a basketball team and I awkardly asked, while Michael awkwardly tried to get Moose to hold still. Then the entire basketball team started giving the volunteer photographer advice. So, we're smiling while 12 highschool boys shout suggestions like "get out of the shade of the tree" and "you can't even see the dog from there". Well, they were right. You can barely see Moose's doofy smile and we are in the shade of the tree, but I still like the picture.

I loved it.







Hopefully we can visit the Grand Canyon sometime when we go more than 20 ft below the rim.


Hot air balloons outside of Pheonix. That made the last bit of our drive a little more interesting.


I'm so happy to be here. Thanksgiving dinner is tomorrow for us. Woot!
