AZ hike

Here's a few pictures from the hike that Todd, Jeremy, and I took one afternoon while in AZ. I think the name of the mountain was Thunderbird Mountain, but not sure...is that right, Mom or John??? Anyway, at the beginning there was a split with a sign that said H1 one way and H3 the other. Novice hikers that we were, we had no idea what it meant so we took H3- and figured out towards the end that it meant 3 mile hike or 1 mile hike. Duh. But it was still fun, although a bit longer than we were expecting.
Here are a couple pictures from the top when we finally got there.










It was really fun to see all the cacti along the way. Such different landscaping than we're used to here in Iowa!

Deuce Vogel

Coming to our house in August of 2009! In case I need to spell it out for you, we're gonna have another baby! So far, so good. Jackson is excited to have a sibling, but he doesn't like it when Mommy throws up. We'll keep you posted with baby updates whenever we can!
