The last day of school was on Friday, May 29. We left straight from school and went with Shelly, Grandma Linda and Nathan on our big camping vacation. We started at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. We arrived Friday evening and stayed there until Monday. The weather was rainy each afternoon, but it didn't hamper any of our plans. We just put on our jackets and rain coats and still had fun. Who would have thought that we would be wearing our coats at the Grand Canyon in June? I didn't pack many warm clothes because we were going to the Grand Canyon and it was suppose to be warm, right?
We camped in the campground in the park. It was really nice and there was a big place for the kids to play. We went to ranger and evening programs about the California Condors, bats, stars and of course the kids did the Jr. Ranger program. We love to learn about nature and enjoy the ranger programs. We hiked several of the trails that were on the rim and overlooks. It was really pretty. We didn't think that we were quite up to the 15 + mile trails that dropped down in the canyon, but we did enjoy the beautiful views from above.

That looks like such a fun vacation!! I love that you guys are so outdoorsy and you are teaching your kids to love the outdoors too. I've always wanted to see the Grand Canyon, so I will have to plan a trip like that!!
