Our Second "Honeymoon"



HA! Andrew is so funny. This morning we woke up and he suggested we go on a "2nd honeymoon". Cute- huh?? I think he forgot we had a child for a second because he wanted to go the Grand Canyon (4 hour drive) and stay over night in a hotel. That did sound all fine and dandy until we thought of how it would be with Jaxon. Then we both decided it didn't sound fun anymore. Sad! We love Jax, he's just not the kind of guy you wanna go on a last minute spur of the moment long drive with. So, then we thought...hmmm...maybe Bryce Canyon? That's 2 hours and 46 minutes away. No, still not close enough if we factor in the Jax. So....we decided to go to "Red Cliffs". It's maybe 20 minutes away. Much more do-able. Someday I would love to see the Grand Canyon. Andrew gets major points for the thought though. So cute how he said "2nd honeymoon".





Andrew made his famous "Peach Cobbler" with a whoppin 3 ingredients. It's delish though. Jax & I played in the little stream. Jax wasn't a fan at first but I changed that quickly. No child of mine is afraid of water, dangit! Even if it is freeeezing. No, it wasn't that bad. We had fun. What a happy "2nd Honeymoon"!






















Jaxon got absolutely filthy. Eventually we had to strip him down to the diaper.




Jax is infatuated with stairs. He loves to go up and down. and up. and down. and up. and down.












Andrew took this, and I like it. See any resemblence??





This is why we didn't dare take a trip any further. Can you say nap time?

Looks like a fun "honeymoon"! Did you camp, or picnic? Yes, kids are just DIRTY little creatures, aren't they! My favorite picture of Lizzie is when we camped at Red Cliffs, and she sad in the dirt covering her entire body in it!

Boys and the dirt...I really like the pictures with you and Jaxon by the water. They are really pretty. And then the one of course of him crying with his diaper and shoes on...:)

Relax. Be nice. Whatever.
