Yesterday we did our train trip to the Grand Canyon! It was a tight squeeze with everything going on, but I am so glad we did it. The kids really enjoyed the train ride, and the views were breathtaking. I think it was the perfect way for us to see it with the kids right now-they loved the train and the 3 hours at the rim was just right for us. I can't wait until the kids are old enough to hike down to the bottom and do a longer trip.
Ian was so excited about the snow! It's been quite awhile since we've seen any.
While we were on the train, we had a nearby repair place put our spare tire on. They only charged us $15 and it was ready to go when we got back. That was really great and we had much smoother driving from then on. The kids did very well today and we made it to Las Cruces.
One wrinkle in our plans is that we were informed today that tomorrow is a holiday for some people. Not for us, but for the people who need to help get our passports to us. So I'm not sure yet when we'll be able to leave or how that will work with getting to Illinois, but we'll make it happen.
