the wilds

This mild, mild winter.
I have nothing much to say about it, except that we hope, with our fingers crossed, that we will be able to still enjoy the wilds of the forests this summer.

The GC

We love having visitors.
Not only do we love seeing friends and family, but we love sharing our small corner of the world.
An excuse to visit the Grand Canyon. Yes, please.

Are these two too cute? Happy travels on the remainder of your cross-country trip!

and once the snow melts...

The snow has long ago melted away and we find ourselves out and about in the unseasonably warm winter air. This particular trip took us to some old caves and a site littered with pottery. 

The afternoon wrapped up with a local brew and the boys' favorite pastime these days. Cards. Uno or war, whatever set of cards we have on hand will keep these two entertained. It's a change in dynamics for us, all four of us able to play a real game together. 

winter...for a moment

We had winter a few weeks ago. And it lasted exactly one hot moment.
The new sleds made their debut and we milked every second of it.
✓hot cocoa
✓sledding
✓roaring fire
✓snowball fight
✓winter cold

Another year older

Mr. Bejos celebrated a birthday last week nearly a month ago (I know, I know), and it was a fun one. Sedona in the sunshine (trail testing a couple of sweet bikes), fondue and cake with friends, and another afternoon in the Sedona desert. It was a long weekend filled with points of interest for everyone, including the birthday boy.
