a "GRAND" weekend

Kyle & I went to the Grand Canyon over the weekend, this was both of our first times ever seeing it. What an amazing sight, now I understand why the call it one of the wonders of the world! I will never forget the feeling I felt seeing the Grand Canyon for the very first time. It literally took my breath away! Our weekend started off on Friday morning, the 5 1/2 hour car ride wasn't bad at all (no traffic!). Once we got to Williams and checked into our hotel we headed to Flagstaff to look for Arizona Cardinal stuff for Kyle, we also had a really nice dinner in Flagstaff. Saturday morning we woke up bright and early, had breakfast, and headed for the train depot where we took a 2 hour and 15 minute train ride to the south rim of the Grand Canyon. We had 3 hours to spend at the Canyon before we had to catch our train back to Williams. Kyle and I walked for the entire 3 hours, we didn't want to miss a thing! and although our feet were killing us we were so glad we did it. Once we got back to Williams we had another great dinner, walked around looking at the the Christmas decorations and then went back to our hotel. We headed home first thing Sunday morning, hit a lot of wind and rain, but got home at a decent hour so we could rest from our wonderful weekend together!

Here are some of the pictures from our weekend...
