Cross Country Road Trip- Days 5, 6 & 7

I hope you are enjoying our
road trip vacation.
It's been so much fun seeing and taking in all
of God's beautiful landscapes.
We are now on to 
Days 5, 6 & 7 of our road trip, but if you missed
Days 1 & 2
 or Days 3 & 4

We left the Pioneer Woman and got back on the road to head to 
TEXAS!
But first we made a quick stop in Oklahoma City for the hubby to visit
It's a show that he watches so we stopped in for a quick peek!

We arrived in Texas!

We spent one night in Amarillo, TX.
Got up the next morning and surprised the girls by stopping at
Gene had gone the night before to purchase spray paints so we were
ready to leave our mark.


How cool is this?!
Bailey loved it.


I did too!

See our names...


Such a cool place... be sure to check it out if you ever get the chance!


It was back on the road to head to the Grand Canyon!
We went through New Mexico.


And finally... ARIZONA!
The scenery on our road trip was amazing!
So many beautiful sights to see!


We quickly checked into our hotel and headed straight
for the Grand Canyon.
The first stop we got to we could hardly wait to get out and look.
It did not disappoint!


It's beautiful everywhere you look!


Where we stopped there was a sidewalk and we began to walk
and saw this Elk.  We couldn't believe how close we were able
to get.


This was definitely the hubby's favorite part.
Check out the horns on this one!


Lots of beautiful pics to cherish our trip!



Someone was nice enough to take a family pic for us!


My girls are beautiful, but so is God's scenery in the background!


The next morning we got up and stopped at a little gift shop to 
pick up a few souvenirs. 
Hubby looking like Daniel Boone.


Here we are waiting for the shuttle bus.
I was worried about the weather or mostly the heat, but temps were in the mid 80's while we were there.  Very chilly in the mornings and evenings and comfortable during the day.  The week before temps were very hot.



On the shuttle bus.


Yes...we used the selfie stick again...


and again!!!!


Bailey got a Polaroid camera for Easter that she used to take
pics with.
Love this pic of her taking a pic!


More beautiful spots in the Grand Canyon.


Praying she remembers this trip forever!
We made some wonderful memories.


I know this one will remember our trip if nothing other than the laughs
we had in the truck about so many crazy things!


We visited the Watch Tower.


Great view!


Loved this little spot and the sign below...


 The next morning Gene & I got up very early...like 4:30 to see the 
sun rise over the Grand Canyon.


So glad Gene wanted to do this because it was breath taking.


 Many tourists just like us gathered to watch, video and take pics of this
moment.


We rode around afterwards to take in as much as we could before we got back on the road...


We loved spotting the Elk.


The Grand Canyon is beyond beautiful!

Thanks for stopping by.
Come back to see where this road trip take us next!

Have a blessed weekend!
Keep up with me on INSTAGRAM.

XOXO,
APRIL
