A Family Adventure:: { Sedona }

I am a hermit.  I can stay indoor for days and remain sane.  If the brother of Jared were putting together a crew in this time and day, I would be a great candidate.  All I'll need is my baby and the hub {you know I can't live without them}, some books, a game or two, a kitchen would be nice too, and I can be on that boat for 344 days oh yeah.  But I kinda hate that about myself so I made a goal to go on more adventures and Memorial Day was a great day to start.

The original plan was to drive to Sedona Sunday night, stay over, explore all Monday, and drive home Monday night, but I cringed after finding out how much it was to Hotwire a hotel in Sedona so I convinced Jake to make it a day trip.  We packed all our anti-sun gear, toys and books for the baby, an audio book for mommy and daddy, a cooler filled with snacks and drinks for everyone and we were good to go!  Ethan was so pleasant and playful during the car ride, it made me extra glad that we didn't spend a fortune on a hotel room.  Sedona was beautiful; being there made all of us so happy.  I could feel the positive energy flowing into my body :)  On our way to our trail, we passed tons of million-square-foot homes and most of them are to die for.  There are lots of hikes to do in the area but we were able to do only one trial on Monday.  We can't wait to go back when it's a little cooler!  All we'll need is a baby hiking backpack...
