Sedona

Tyler and I just got home from a pretty cold trip up to Sedona for Spring Break.  It was beautiful up there, but pretty chilly compared to down here in Phoenix.  While we were up there we had the heater on the whole time.  We also were wearing jackets and sweatshirts when we went out.  Then we drove back here, and it is 80 degrees today!!  It's crazy that it is already getting this hot!

While we were up there we were able to enjoy some of the beautiful parts of Sedona.  We went back to Savanah's for dinner on Sunday night, and had another delicious meal.  This is where we went the first time we went up there, for our 1 year anniversary as well.  The food and service was outstanding again, and we would recommend the place to any one! It's a little pricey, but delicious!

Monday we decided to try and go hiking.  Tyler took me to a spot he went in high school.  The hike was supposed to be three miles long.  While we were driving up to the hiking spot, we were met by some snow though.

I had to jump out of the car, run across the freeway to take this picture!  I was so excited!


Tyler was having fun taking pictures of the snow, mountains, and river!


Our only picture from the trip of us together!

We found where we were going to go hiking, and set off.  We were a little nervous because we had no cash with us, and you were supposed to pay $10 to just park and hike.  I'm a little glad we didn't know, and you'll find out why.  We started off on the hike, with our lunch in our backpack because we had planned on eating on the trail.  The hike starts in the dirt, and then all of a sudden we are in the SNOW!! There is snow all over the place, and you are walking through the snow trying to find the trail.  Eventually we made it to a creek, and we knew we weren't going across.  It was way too cold, and who knew where the trail was on the other side.  A family came up behind us, and the dad was determined to figure out how to get across the creek.  We didn't wait long enough to watch him fall in, but while we were walking down the trail, we heard a yelp and figured he fell in!!


Monday night we went to watch the sunset up at the airport.  There were a lot more people than I expected.  I don't know why I didn't expect that many people to be there.  It was really chilly as the sun started going down though, so we didn't wait until it went all the way down.  It was really pretty though, and fun to see the city from up high!
Up at the airport watching the sunset, 6:20 at night.

Tuesday we just relaxed, and played a lot of games.  We were very excited to be on vacation, and enjoyed ourselves.  Now we are back at home, and getting ready for school to begin again on Monday.  Can't wait for two more weeks, when we are on vacation again for Easter!
