More trip

When we started planning our trip to Arizona I told Bentley we were going to go on a trip.

He got really excited, started jumping up and down, and said "My friends go on trips too!" Yeah, that's right and now it is your turn. He had no idea the the scale of our trip was substantially smaller than his friends and he loved every minute of it.

In unlikely Stephens fashion, we broke the driving into 2 days each way. This kept us all sane and the boys did great in the car.On the way down we stopped to see the Grand Canyon. It was my first time seeing this wonder, and it was grand. The wind had been blowing like I only thought it did in Idaho the day before, so the air was hazy with dust.
Pictures to prove we were there. Pretty sure Lincoln won't remember a thing, and Bentley was more excited about the coloring book from the gift shop than the large hole, so the here's the documentation.

On the way home we stopped and saw another wonder of the world. The Las Vegas Strip. Chod had never seen the Bellagio fountains. We took a picture to document this too. It has been 7 years since I was in Vegas and I don't know if it has gotten worse, or if traveling with my husband and 2 sons made the difference. We saw the fountain show and quickly got out of town.

When Bentley recognized we were getting close to home he started crying, "I want more trip! No home!"

Guess it is better to leave them screaming for more rather than screaming to have it over with.
