March was a fun busy month. We got to take a semi big family trip. At least it was a big trip for us. We haven’t done a lot of travel and haven’t stayed at a hotel since before Courtney was born (5 years ago), so this was a big deal for our girls. Over spring break we 
went to Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon for a couple of days. We hadn’t been back to Flagstaff since 2005 when we moved away from there. It was neat to see our old stomping grounds and see how much the NAU campus and Flagstaff had changed.
When Jeremy was in Australia serving a mission he would tell people that he was from Arizona and they would ask him about the Grand Canyon. Sad to say he would have to tell them he had never been to see it. Now, if he ever gets to go back he can tell them all about it. Pictures do not do it justice. It is such an amazing site. It 
was fun to share it with my family. I had been once before but that was several years ago. I remembered it just being so vast that you almost thought it didn’t look real. The kids were a little nervous about getting too close but that didn’t hurt my feelings at all.
What a long fun day! The girls were excited to get back to the hotel a relax for a while. They loved just being about to get under the covers and watch some TV. We don’t have cable so it was fun for them. 
Another highlight of our trip was getting to hang out with CG and Gramps a little bit on the way back. We got to stop at the ranch where Gramps boards his horses and see his newest edition “Snicker’s Doodle.”
We also got to ride Gramps’ green machine. The kids had a blast because 
they even got to take turns driving. (Don’t worry there was an adult in the vehicle at all times.)
After that we enjoyed a wonderful picnic lunch provided by Gramps. Then there was a quick pose in the stage coach there on site. The girls had a blast. Thanks Gramps! 
On another note in March, guess who turned 11! Kelsi is growing up 
way too fast. Actually they all are. I can’t hardly believe how the years are flying and my little girls are quickly growing in to young women. 
I am proud of the wonderful person she is and love seeing her learn and grow in so many ways. What a blessing all of our daughters truly are.
On a fun side note I thought I would throw this picture of Courtney in for fun.
