Our December Trip North

The weekend before Christmas we went north to Flagstaff for the weekend.  It was perfect because there was snow on the ground, and it even snowed a bit on the Sunday we were there, but the roads were fine the whole time.  We got there on Friday afternoon.  On Saturday we went to the Grand Canyon which is a little over an hour from Flagstaff.  It was beautiful with all of the snow, but windy and cold.

This is a campground right down the road from the entrance to the National Park that we have always thought was funny.
 
We woke up Sunday morning to a fresh layer of snow.  This is Shayne's first experience scraping a windshield.  Later we went sledding.

Great sledding hill by NAU (Northern Arizona University)  Shayne and Maya are the ones in pink and grey about to go down the starting ramp

Their first time sledding was definitely a hit :)
