Havasupai Trip ... and Beckett's Big News

Sam and I just got back from a nice little vacation...he went to Havasupai, an Indian Reservation in the Grand Canyon...and I stayed behind with little man, Beckett (pumping all week would have been a disaster). I stayed in Yucaipa/San Bernardino to visit with my two little sisters and Sam's sisters that live out there. Here are some pictures from his trip (probably more interesting than mine!)

Look at those happy campers...from right to left...Sam, Don (Sam's Dad), Alec then Dalin (Sam's nephews), Evan (Sam's brother-in-law), Aaron (Sam's littlest brother), and David (Janiece's brother)...and of course, the picture taker was Sam's Mom (yes...she went as well...what a trooper!)
...Somewhere on the ten mile hike down the Grand Canyon...
Scenery pictures...so beautiful!


The boys...posing in front of Havasu Falls.
Here's Mooney Falls...the biggest waterfall, 200 ft.

The trek to get behind Havasu Falls to jump into it.

...And here's Sam trying to fly with his "eagle wings."

The huge tree branch that fell on Sam's parent's tent...good thing they weren't in it or they would have been seriously hurt!

Well, everyone's happy to be back home. Sam's especially happy that he doesn't have to eat squeeze cheese, crackers, granola bars, and rice anymore.

...And we can't forget to share Beckett's Big News...he's got two teeth. The first one popped in on June 16th, and then the second tooth popped in during our vacation on June 24th. All in all, he's been a good little sport through the whole teething process...so far... He's just gotta have SOMETHING in his mouth at all times.

Wow, those picture of the Grand Canyon are beautiful! And about Beckett's big news . . . my two older kids both broke teeth while we were on vacations. Worst timing EVER. Hopefully he was not in too much pain.
