mateo pulled out the hiking book and asked to go so we went for it. we hiked fay canyon trail in sedona. it was the perfect hike for us. not too short, not too long,
hearts on the trail,
a lookout at the end of the canyon where you could climb up above the treetops and look back at how far you'd come,
places to rest and look out and stand exactly like your papi or sleep on his back,
a side hike to a natural hidden arch of red rock,
cuddling little ones,
and snack times with beautiful views.
we were impressed by mateo hiking the 3-ish miles all by himself, and happy ruby got a nap in the fresh air - one of my favorite things for them. we loved sedona so much that we decided to spend a weekend there in a few weeks to celebrate my 30th birthday! it is only 30 minutes away but each time we visit for the day we wish we had more time to explore.
How fun, and what beautiful views! I know Ryan misses having good hiking around here... state parks just aren't the same in TN as they were in WI and aren't *real* hikes. Short enough for little ones to walk along on their own, though, which is fun for all.
