Labor Day Weekend

So I finally uploaded pictures from our trip to Flagstaff over the Labor Day weekend. We decided to escape the heat and head up North (along with everyone else in the state!) So we battled the traffic but it was worth it when we felt the cool breeze and smelled that fresh "just after the rain mountain air!" We had a great time visiting with family and spending some time together as a family. Saturday we packed a lunch and went up on the Peaks for a picnic and a little hike. Madison was loving it! She liked hiking but insisted on doing it on her own and after every few steps would stop and clap for herself, and of course we would all have to clap too. For obvious reasons, we didn't make it very far, but it was still fun! We're wanting to head up again soon to see the leaves change so hopefully that will happen. It is this time of year (late summer and fall) that I miss living in the mountians, but its nice to go back and visit once in awhile!

Your hair is so long! Holy cow! You make me totally miss Flagstaff. I haven't been back there in almost 5 years. I wish I had family still there to visit. Flagstaff is the best!
