Mary-Mitchell takes Tucson

I wanted to post a few pictures from our visit with John's sister Mary-Mitchell. We haven't seen her since the summer we moved to Tucson, so it was wonderful having her here. And, MM brought her great friend Heather, who we've been lucky enough to know for several years. We ate lots of Mexican food, visited the Desert Museum, and took a road trip to the Grand Canyon. All four of us (plus Winston) drove up there and went to bed early, planning on waking up nice and early to watch the sun rise over the Grand Canyon. As residents of Tucson, we're accustomed to not relying on the weather forecast, so we were surprised to wake up to several inches of snow. After waiting a few hours for visibility to improve, we finally did make it to see the amazing view. And, Clark Griswold-style, we got back in the car and drove back. We did stop in Sedona, which is absolutely beautiful, for some lunch, coffee, fudge, and sunshine. It was great to see MM, and we can't wait to see her again!!

Yes, John wore shorts. Raise your hand if you're surprised. Anyone? Anyone?
