While we were in St. George we decided to drive 2 1/2 hrs. to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. I had never been there and have always wanted to go. As we were driving and getting closer, you could see the drop offs out the car window and my heart literally sank. I was scared before I even got out of the car. You could say I was the Mommy Nazi that day. I was so freaked out that I kept yelling at my kids if they even veered off the middle of the path. There were only a couple of places that had railing so it was very scary to have kids there. My dad even brought a rope to tie to the kids if needed. Carson was close to getting tied to the rope. Baylee would scream from the stroller if Warren got her too close to the edge. The pictures just don’t do it justice. This place is the coolest place that I have ever been. I loved the majestic beauty of the canyon, it was breathtaking. At one point I walked as close to the edge as I could bare and my legs were shaking so bad I couldn’t snap the picture. If you have never been I totally recommend getting there.
The rocks on the bottom of this picture is what lined the path. So basically that is the only thing keeping you from going over the edge. SCARY!!
Thanks to my dad and Jana for the awesome trip to St. George and all the fun little excursions that we went on. It was fun for the kids to hang out with their grandparents! We ended the day with a drive to Lake Powell and then back home, what a day. We were in the car for about 6-7 hrs that day but it was so worth it! What a beautiful world we live in!

I loved the pics erin! I've always wanted to go there. It looks beautiful!
It's been a long time since I have been there - I had just found out I was pregnant with Gena when I was there last! It is a very awesome place to be, but can be scary with kiddos.
