Flagstaff & Sedona Trip

We stayed friday night in Flagstaff because it got pretty late when we were done with our evening campout. Saturday we drove the scenic route through Sedona and stopped on the side of the road to play around the creek a bit. The kids had fun throwing rocks in the water and collecting sticks. We were headed to Prescott for a pumpkin festival our friends told us about. Here is Alyssa and Corbin riding some ponys at the festival. That was the one thing they wanted to do for sure. Corbin loved it, Alyssa was excited until the pony started to walk and then she got nervous, but we told her to stay on until the ride was over. Got to get your moneys worth right!

Some of you might recognize this place. Its a really good deli in Sedona just past Slide Rock.
Yummy Yummy!!

Last weekend we drove up to Flagstaff to go hiking in a place called Locket Meadows with our friends the Johnsons. The last time we were all there was 4 years ago when I was pregnant with Alyssa. Now we have 3 kids and they have two and 1 on the way, so it was fun to go there with the kids and re-live some fun memories. When we got there it was very cold and windy. I had brought some warmer clothes for the night time, but it didn't cut it. we were wearing blankets and all the layers we had it was so windy. The kids helped gather some firewood and we started a fire to keep warm at the camp grounds while we cooked up some hot dogs for dinner.

Brad and Ava keeping each other warm. Luckily our friends had a couple extra sweatshirts and a beanie for Ava. She was quite warm with her daddy.

The trees had started changing colors, it is so pretty up there. The kids wanted to keep walking up the road to keep warm.
