Sedona, Arizona

Because Christmas landed on a Sunday this year, Peter had Monday off! So, we decided to take a road trip to Sedona.

One of the few active things we can still do together, and something that still feels great to me, is hiking. So we picked a place that wasn’t too cold and had lots and lots of hiking. We did 4 different hikes together over the two days in Sedona and the most challenging hike we found was Bear Mountain. A 2,000 foot climb in 2.5 miles. Because of the little girl who has made her home in my growing belly, I am much slower these days. Peter is very patient but until he can carry her in a backpack, we are stuck at my slow heart-pumping pace. I am hoping that once our girl gets out of my belly and onto Peter’s back, it might finally be the thing to slow him down. Maybe I will get the chance to keep up with his hypersonic hiking pace? My legs are getting stronger so time will tell!
