and the Grand Canyon. But I didn't put that in the title because Tonto Natural Bridge is so
much less boring. You know what I mean? Anyways. So we went to the Grand Canyon for the 5th time. And, for some reason, it looked the same as all the other times.
Tonto Natural Bridge...

It's so beautiful, it beats Grand Canyon any day. This was our second time there, but I don't think I could
ever get tired of it. It's just--well, you kind of just have to be there because it's hard to explain how beautiful it is...unless you see some really good pictures. Which mine aren't so you'll have to find the really good ones somewhere else :P
Also, we were in Phoenix (again!) this past weekend for the
AFHE Homeschool Convention. It was two long days of lots of people, noise, and
stuff. Probably the part I enjoyed most was hearing
Ken Ham. Or maybe it was walking the exhibit hall (btw, that's where the
stuff came from). No, I think it
was Ken Ham. He has a way of talking that makes you want to pay attention the whole way through--like you don't want to let your mind wander.
Oh, and by the way...I'll try to start putting a link at the end of my post so you can see more pictures, because I'm taking so much more now, that I'm just putting most of them on my Picasa Web Albums. For example, and to begin a "good habit" (maybe), here are some more pictures from our family visiting:

Tara, you take SUCH good pictures! I can tell that it is a hobby of yours. And, it's actually a very creative art.
*wow* - those photos are amazing!!! You are quite the photographer, Tara. :D And I totally know what you mean abt the convention and Ken Ham - it's quite the brain workout, haha!
Once again, I just LOVE those photos. Great job

Hey Tara,
So I know I've already commented on this post...but as you haven't added a new one yet, I thought I'd comment again! haha
Anyway, I want to let you know that I'm probably gonna be having a birthday party on Sept. 17th, and you and your family are invited! We'll get the details together lately (my family has a GREAT plan that'll hopefully work with yours...), but I just wanted to let you know so hopefully you guys can come. :)
ok..I meant that to say we'll get the details together "later". Ugh, typo. sry.
So yeah, let me know if that date will work for you guys! I really hope it does...because that would be a ton of fun! :D
I've been to the Grand Canyon a lot, and I'm with you - sure it's very very beautiful and amazing....but it really isn't that much different each time you go! haha next time when someone suggests going to the Grand Canyon, you should suggest touring....idk Sedona downtown or something. I *love* Sedona...how abt you?
-Tia
Hey well thanks for the invite! I hope it works!!
Actually I haven't been in Sedona, but it's sounds interesting, from what I've heard! (I know, lived in AZ for 5 years and haven't been in Sedona...go ahead and scold me)
Oh girl, I'm not going to scold you! But sometime when you guys are near us we should get together and tour Sedona. that would be fun!
you could also go on the sky ride at snowbowl. been on that? *so* much fun!
haha I didn't think you would! :P
Yeah that would be lots of fun!
