Wow! It's so.... GRAND!

Sorry, this was supposed to post the first week of February, and apparently I didn't press publish!! So here it is, the 1st week of April! Not too bad, right????!?! LOL!


Mr. Love of my Life took off a couple days this past week, so the way it fell he ended up with a full week off! I definitely didn't want to stay home for those 8 days- & all of you that know me, know I can't stand sitting still! (Apparently it is a trait I have so fortunately passed on to Miss Mayhem... Errr maybe not so fortunately, ha!)

As soon as I knew his days off were approved I had the wheels in motion for us to hit the road to somewhere! We ended up going to Williams, AZ. He has never been to the Grand Canyon before, and has been wanting to go see it. So off we went! 


We ended up staying at the Grand Canyon Railway Hotel & then taking the train to the canyon and back. All three of us had a fun time and enjoyed ourselves. Mayhem got a bag of rocks and a stuffed mule from a couple different gift shops we went thru (another thing about me, I love gift shops! I will go wherever as long as there is a gift shop to browse in after!).

She had an awesome time and loved seeing the "big hole!" Her #1 disappointment: No one fell in... Uhh hello child! We didn't want anyone to fall in!

After our 2 nights at the GCRH, we headed onto Kingman, and then to Oatman, AZ. I had googled activities for us... Oatman looked like an adventure, so off we went! Well it is a tiny, old mining town, that has wild burros roaming around Main Street (Also known as Route 66!), I will just say they get a bit aggressive if they see anything in your hands! We let Daddy do the burro feeding, while Mayhem and I sat back to watch.

So here are some photos for you to enjoy of our trip!



25* was pretty chilly for us California girls! Brrr!!
