We went on a vacation.

 We went to Red Rocks in Las Vegas.  They were having flooding... what better to do then throw rocks?
 Or pose in front of a flooded street???
 Or maybe go hiking and get soaked in the rain?!!!
 Here we are in front of the tree at the Venetian... had to have a family photo op!
 Hoover Dam
 The Grand Canyon
 I love all the trees around there.  They have a lot of character.
 Georgea peeking over the canyon
 Elic's pose
 ....more trees.

Sunset over the canyon was beautiful!
