Yes, we visited one of the 7 natural wonders of the world and one of the 7 natural wonders of Georgia this month, and the month is not even half over!
First, the Grand Canyon trip. It was part of a Wellness Challenge at CFA (2010 Mooooooove Challenge, to be specific). It was an amazing opportunity, subsidized by Tony's work and ridiculously well organized. We didn't have to think about a thing. From transportation to meals, it was all covered. We stayed at the Hilton Sedona Spa and Golf Resort. Sedona was so beautiful, and the resort was very nice. Unfortunately, the weather was so bad in the Grand Canyon that our hike was canceled. There was flash flooding and dangerous lightening, not to mention the constant rain. So it was disappointing to have trained for and looked forward to hiking the Grand Canyon after all this planning, and then to have it canceled the day of the hike, on the way to the GC. We were able to visit the GC anyway, and walk around the rim. The clouds opened up for a few brief minutes for a photo opp, but I feel like there was so much we didn't see. We'll just have to go back again when the kids are old enough for a hike!
The kids stayed with Mimi and Granddad and they were super-grandparents, taking them to school on Monday and then taking two days off from work to entertain our littles. I think both kids had a great time, and Raegan said she wanted to do it again soon.
Before the trip, we went to Sarah's 2-year birthday party in the neighborhood. Always a good party at Sarah's house, and this year was a tailgate theme. Go Dawgs and War Eagle!
If you're still reading, you must really like us. Last Saturday, we went to the Pumpkin Festival at Stone Mountain. The weather was perfect and we had fun doing fall activities and riding the train.
