 I personally think we should be on the front of the Grand Canyon Brochure. I mean we got all the kids smiling and looking at the camera! When does that EVER happen!?

 Snapchatting! 

 I love adventuring with him

 Do you see them!? About 10 elk crossed the road on our way back from the Grand Canyon 

There are no words to describe the beauty of the Grand Canyon.  It was a major bucket list item for myself and I finally got to check it off the list. We went to the south rim because the north rim closes for the winter months. We only had a few hours to explore so we walked about 2.5 miles along the rim and took in every angle we could of it's beauty. My mom was freaking out the every time Fabian and I went close to the edge of the canyon's rim, but it was too exciting not to look down and see just how massive it is...although I would not recommend looking down if anyone has a fear of heights (like my dad). From the rim's edge you could see people that looked about the size of ants, hiking the canyon below, so of course now I am looking into planning a trip to hike the Grand Canyon. Like I said earlier, we only had a few hours to explore but I could have spent days exploring and taking in the beauty of God's amazing Earth.

Fun fact: I am OBSESSED with mac & cheese 

Well...I would say I am doing a pretty good job at failing at this whole blog thing. I had big plans to write a couple of posts in October because it was such a fun month, but life got busy. Oh well I guess! So since we are pretty much already one third of the way through November (I can't even handle it) I figured it was time for a quick life update. October was filled with a trip to Disneyland, a Mumford and Sons concert (which was AMAZING!), candy, and so many fun family outings. 

So far November has been a bit more calm, I am just getting things ready for the holiday's and Fabian's birthday on the 19th (there will be a blog post coming about that). I spent my weekend in Orange county and Fabian and I had a much needed date night. We ate at his favorite restaurant (Lucille's) and then he kicked my butt at mini golf. On Sunday We took a trip to Rancho Cucamonga to walk around Victoria Gardens, have lunch at The Melt (get the Mac Daddy if you ever go there!) and of course we had to stroll through Bass Pro Shops. All of the Christmas decor is up and Christmas music was playing, and even though it was sunny and 80 degrees outside, it made me get a little excited for the next couple of months.

I am so grateful to have weekends like this, when things aren't planned and they just happen. 

There's much more to come and I can't wait to share! 

Love,
