A long awaited break

Well I had my first Phoenix excursion this weekend. Nora's Grandparents are in town and we went to the Grand Canyon and Sedona. It was a much needed break for me. I have been studying for my exams and working a lot. I have passed another exam and am waiting on two exam results. So that is 2 passes 2 unknown and 5 test to take. I am hoping to take the next test at the end of next month. Oh yeah I also turned 31 last month! I am getting old but still feel like a little kid. Nora would agree with the kid part :)



Well now to the good stuff. I have posted a slide show of the pictures of the Grand Canyon. I will post another slide show after this one. There were a few cool things that we saw other than this big hole in the ground. On our drive through the canyon we saw a cougar crossing the road in front of us. I pictured it eating the people that annoyed me for the rest of the day as well as making cougar noises to annoy Abbey. I do not really like being out in the public. I think I get this from my mother! We also saw a coyote along the road as well. I did not expect wild animals to be so close to where people are camping.

Well it is starting to get colder here now and we should be able to do more outdoors now. So hopefully the blog will get more updates. I will bring all the pictures of the Grand Canyon when we come home for Christmas. Look for the Sedona pictures shortly.
