Madera Canyon in August

I love Madera Canyon. especially when the creek is flowing! If you're ever in the Tucson area, I'd recommend you take the time to go. The weather is cooler, the scenery is beautiful. We went up the day after Kylie's baptism, while family was still in town. Nick and Tiffany came, with Jayson, along with Grandpa and Roma, and my wonderful in-laws.

We found a bush that was covered in ladybugs! I had never seen anything like that before, it was quite amazing! and here's just one picture of the lovely creek.



















I really liked this picture of Grandpa and Roma. and here is, probably our most recent, the family!

Kylie

OK, So apparently I've been really behind here... in July, our oldest turned 8, and was baptized! Here she is with her dad.









Jared, Kylie and myself. My mom made that dress for Kylie, and it's still her favorite dress.

And then some of the cousins that came for her special day. I especially love how Claire is attacking Kylie and Kitty with love and hugs!
