A day trip to the Grand Canyon

We decided to spend the last few days of Christmas break at Marilyn and Jim's Arizona home,  I checked on-line for the weather and packed our bags.  Unfortunately, I checked the weather in the wrong city.  I packed for high 60's/low 70's.  Well, more like low 40s--we were all a little cold!  Good thing we could wash our one pair of jeans everyday!  On our first day, we headed up to the Grand Canyon because that was the only day that it was not going to snow up there.

 Kellen just can't handle bright light and he could not open his eyes for any picture.  I did get him to at least look up with his eyes closed for one shot.
 Stunning view!  It was well worth the trip-the kids were facinated.
 Skylar very intently listening to the lecture on how the Grand Canyon was formed.
 Brennen loved looking in the binoculars!
 Charlotta also listening to the lecture!  (Not sure she got the same out of it that Skylar did!)
 Spotted a reindeer on our way back to the car.
A great day!
