Spring Break in AZ

We had so much fun going to Snowflake, AZ to visit the Johnson's (they moved back there about 6 months ago). The kids really missed their friends and I was intrigued to see this "Zion" or "Utopia" that I had heard so much about.

We pulled up after a 12 hour drive (the kids did great) to a beautiful house with a white picket fence. The city...err town...or even village has only about 5000 people. As I was trying to find the house in the dark the WIDE streets didn't help much. I couldn't see across to the other side to see what the street names were because of how wide the streets are! I guess they were big planners when they layed out the city :)

The little town was great. The best part about it was seeing our friends again. Below are some of the pictures we got along the way. Unfortunately I didn't get everything in the pictures but I am sure we will never forget our trip.

Levi and Ezra taking a bath. (This happened a lot because we had so much fun playing)
Cameo and I took all the kids on a hike that was a lot of fun. You wouldn't think about snow so much in AZ but in a couple of places we saw some of the white stuff. The ground was still a little muddy from all the snow melting and these are Jonah's and Turner's feet after sloshing around in the mud.

MUD MONSTERS! Tony and Granger.

Cora is going for a new look.

Jonah and Turner being mud monsters too!

Levi and Ezra got along pretty well. They definitely had a lot of fun.

The kids found a "slide" and had to try it out.

Weee!

Nothing like roasting marshmellow's at the end of a long day hiking.

We went to the Petrified National Forest. This was a really cool place. I had never really seen any petrified wood. The kids had fun and learned a lot.

It was super windy at the National Forest.

Tony, Turner, and Jonah are taking the pledge to be Junior Rangers. They got a cool badge and pin.

On the last day we just had some fun at the park. Levi loves slides.

Cheese!

Thanks for having us Johnson Fam! It was an awesome trip and can't wait until we get to hang out with you again. And yes...Snowflake is a little utopia. I think it is more the company than the actual town :) We had a blast!
