Road Trip to Jerome and Sedona



Love Adobe architecture

I know I am so cute


We know we are so cute too!


My 3 Grand Dogs


Well, our road trip to Sedona. What can I say. It was just absolutely wonderful for me as I had been dreaming of a road trip with my two daughters and of course, my Grandaughter was a bonus!! We really had fun. Craziness as well. Fortunately Sedona is only a couple of hours or so from where Danielle was living. We stayed at a Hilton Resort. Beautiful swimming pools, restaurants and everything we needed right there. Sedona is this quaint town surrounded by red rock mountains and Adobe style buildings. Beautiful scenery with mountains all around, no matter where you look. We shopped, spent time at the pools and restaurants, went out to dinners, and treated ourselves to a Hummer Jeep Tour. It was really wonderful to be driven by a tour guide all over these mountains and to understand how they became these beautiful red rock mountains. Amya was so great on this tour. She did fall asleep after a while, which was perfect as I stayed in the jeep with her while the girls and the guide went for a hike, a little higher than I wanted to hike!! On the way home, we stopped for a couple of hours in this very small town (known as a ghost town), called Jerome. Then back to Phoenix we went. We were so happy with how well Amya did on this side trip. She is just an amazing little girl. It was hard to keep her in her stroller for too much shopping, but even at that, she did great and we all had a wonderful time.


Red, red, red

Rocks, rocks, rocks

OK, you can hike higher now.

Sunset over Sedona!

Sunny day in Sedona!

Let's go jeeping.

Old town Jerome

I think I will talk to "TUBBA!" My cousin can keep me entertained while we drive and drive and drive!

Old jail in Jerome
OK, so Amya loves to dance and loves to do rollovers and loves to jump
Dionne, as of 2010 has her in gymnastics and swimming. She is really good at both of these activities. She has a new thing now...she walks around all day singing away (must be like her Papa Rock)! I imagine, soon I will have her in singing lessons. Watch out, I am sure there will be a video of her singing, if there hasn't already been one!!
