Audobahn and Tent Rocks

In the morning we drove to Tia Sophia’s where we ate deeeeelicious cheese enchiladas, huevos rancheros, blue corn pancakes and french toast for breakfast. Then we drove to the Randall Davies Audobahn Center and hiked a trail behind it to watch birds. We didn’t identify a single one, but we heard so many beautiful calls. Also, Lydia peed on the trail. I told her to pee off of it, but she saw a sign that said, “Stay on trail” and so before I could say a word she was squatting and letting it go right. on. the. trail. That’s my obedient girl. (She gets it from Abe.)

Then we drove to The Chocolate Maven for treats before heading to the Kasha- Katue Tent Rocks National Monument. The kids LOVED this hike. Like, it was their favorite hike they’ve ever done, ever. And Abe and I felt the same. Mary and I finished by literally running the last quarter mile back so she could make it to the potty, but that was blissful. I loved running with Mary and just feeling so happy to be with her. She is such a sweet, darling, kind-hearted child.

Most of our pictures haven’t uploaded yet, but here are some:

Lydia said this was the best hike she’d ever hiked. The kids LOVED it.

 

In the evening we went to a restaurant called Sweetwater and ate so much that we never need to eat again. (Just kidding. I ate the leftovers again when we were home.)
