This morning I woke up to this:
Gotta love an April snowstorm
And earlier this month, we were enjoying 90’s in Phoenix.

I think we should have extended our trip. Yikes!
I hope your spring is nicer than ours here in Wisconsin. Please come back soon Spring!
This is what my mom and I looked like:
Amazement mixed with fear, excitement and joy: Mama O. and her own Mom
Upon first glance of the Grand Canyon, my heart leaped right up in my throat.
The canyon is so immense.
We were up so high.
We were glad there were railings! Look how far away from the railings we first stood.
Even my first pictures were taken farther away from the edge, or I can’t remember if my kids took these pictures.
Grand Canyon – view from the South Rim.
Can you see the river at the bottom of the canyon? This is the oldest part of the canyon.
No railings at this part of the South Rim!
My eight year old daughter took this picture below. I love the view of the tree’s shadow. It’s incredible seeing the Grand Canyon through another photographer’s points of view.

It’s impossible to take a bad picture there!
Seeing the Grand Canyon is a powerful, moving, and spiritual experience. How blessed are we to have such wonders in our world!
More pictures and stories from our adventures to come.
