Arizona Adventures

So we decided to get out of the city and hike, hoping to find some source of running water. It took us an hour to drive to the Tonto National Forest where we found a stream for Scout to splash around in. It was a nice break to get out into the mountains, but Arizona mountains are a little different than those of Utah. Every bush/tree/shrub has thorns that are very unforgiving. Scout is still not used to that. Also, the other day, we were walking to the park when we passed a patch of grass where a naked man was standing on his roof chucking oranges into the field. Out of shock we quickly turned and hurried to the park, but I couldn't resist to go back the next day and get pictures of all the oranges that were scattered all over the field.





Merry Christmas







Christmas
break was a blast back home in Utah. We enjoyed every
minute of it, especially all the time we got to spend with family. It was our first Christmas married which also added to the excitement. During the break we got to play games, go tubing at
Soldier Hollow, go hiking to Horsetail Falls,
and introduce Scout to the entire family. We couldn't have asked for a better break.
