Pine Part Deux

We took our 2nd annual trip to Pine with the Ghaemmaghamis over the weekend. We went up Friday after work and came home this morning. The drive is only 2 hours, so it's an easy getaway for us. Pine is such a cute town and it's so nice to get away from the city every once in a while.

Saturday morning we went for a hike at the Tonto Natural Bridge in Payson. While we were there we found out that there is only enough funding to keep it open for 1 more year. So sad, because this place was beautiful!

Amanda and I decided to brave the hike with the kids...

I'm SO mad there is a sun spot over KK's face!

The hike was so beautiful. There were waterfalls, ponds and of course the Natural Bridge!

The boys wanted to hike through the Natural Bridge but Amanda and I didn't feel comfortable climbing on rocks with the kids in tow, so we hiked back up to the parking lot and waited for the boys to come back.


In the meantime, the kids played on the back of our truck. Who knew it would be such a hit!

We also saw a pack of javelinas come through. Amanda counted 15 of them!

After the boys got back from their hike we told them it was their turn to carry the kids so we could hike to the waterfall.

Such Studs

Giving our backs a much needed break

So pretty!!

We tried to capture some family photos and were somewhat successful. Trying to get both toddlers AND dogs to cooperate is quite the challenge!

KK really loved playing with the doggies...

These kids can EAT!

Other than that we just had fun and played with our little munch.


We could NOT keep her from standing on the race track!

Here is a video of Ty and KK having a tea party!


It was a much needed relaxing weekend for us all! Thank you Amanda and Vafa!
