One of the fun things we did in Arizona was visit the Sunset Crater National Monument up in Northern Arizona (north of Flagstaff). It was a few hours to get there and back and Grandpa didn't come because he had a doctor's appointment. While we were there, Annmarie became a junior ranger. She walked right up to the ranger to ask a question about the volcano and learned about the junior ranger program, so he gave her the paper to fill out while we were at the volcano and she did it and then she was sworn in as a junior ranger when she turned it all in at the end. She is not shy, that girl.
The kids and I all thought it was cool to walk through the lava fields of the crater and hike around on the volcano. Now they can tell their friends and teachers that they have actually been on a volcano.
Travis, Eliza, and Jonah also learned how to do back dives into Grandpa and Grandma's pool. Unfortunately, I did not seem to get a picture of Travis doing it. But it was impressive how quickly they all figured it out.
