A made-up song paints a thousand words. Or, maybe it's a picture... either way, I give you both! I only went away for 12 days, but it seems like a lot more when you say the 8th to the 20th of July. It was full of random Arizona mining towns, Sendona slide rocks and sunsets, shopping, Mexican food, Zion hiking/climbing/repelling, Vegas lounging and everything in between. So, My friend and I decided to make up a song to summarize most of our adventures.

I love Zion... so Jealous. You got Cafe Rio and In-N-Out? I hate you.
Very fun! My husband would be drooling...no not over the cafe rio or the in-n-out. The hiking in the canyons and narrows. It's in his blood. Go take a shower, you stink
Is that second to last picture of you sitting on the edge of something! Blood pressure a rising! So good to see you! Love you!! I am glad I witnessed pretty much all of those shoe purchases. That's right, baby.
* correction Heidi... you were there for ALL of them. Outlets then blessed Last Chance ;)
Nice song. I tried to sing along, but your Michael Jackson kept throwing me off. 6 pairs of shoes? Lucky!!!
beautiful pictures!
Awesome picture! What kind of camera do you have? I want one.
um.. my SLR camera is a Canon EOS 20-D. but you can get a new version (which i might be getting since some lady DROPPED my bag with it from the overhead compartment onto the airplane floor. my <3 broke then...)
For the water pics I have the digital waterproof Olympus Stylus 1030sw. Waterproof, shockproof...for kids I'd recommend! :)
Looks like tons of fun. I love reading your blog.
