Joshua Tree Sunday Afternoon

On July 7th we took a trip to Joshua Tree National Park. We live just a few miles from the Park but don't make it there that often.

Nora had a great time.

But, of course, she never wants to be too far away from her Mommy.

Todd got to take some pictures of the rocks.












He also got to take some pictures of cactus.

His loves to show off his Grand Cherokee.
Nora has really come alive and learned how to put sentences together over the last month. We hiked up this big rock/mountain which has a drop-off of well over 100 feet on each side. For safety we held her most of the way up (and down) and kept her on a baby leash. When we got to the top, she looked at the ledge, pointed to it, and yelled: "I want to sit right there." We didn't let her (causing an immediate "fit"), but she somehow has survived.
