Pink is the new Jeep

So while my Uncle Miles was visiting we (Grandma Linda, Uncle Miles, Savanna bug and Daddy) decided to take a jaunt to Sedona for the day to enjoy the cooler weather and experience a bit of adventure.


Savanna loved having Grandma Linda as a back seat 
companion because she got all of the attention 
and gum that a Grandma could give. 


We went to Aunt Nona's favorite 
Sedonian Mexican restaurant in her honor.


Who wouldn't want to climb on a giant bronze pig?


Miles and Vanna-boo posing before 
we set sail on a three hour Pink Jeep tour.


The tour even included a complimentary car seat 
for the little one. Notice the really cute sunglasses 
that we bought that morning for Vanna...
she has since lost them.


Vanna and I sat in the very back, which made it 
very bumpy and surprisingly more fun.
Vanna kept a steady "Ummm....Ummm...
Ummmmmmmm" for about five minutes 
while the bumpy ride made her voice go up and down.
She thought it was pretty amusing.



A view of the beautiful scenery.


A view of the not so beautiful and 
very rocky road that we drove on. 


Miles and I enjoying the comforts of a first class Pink Jeep Tour.


This was only half way up the mountain. 


The end of our tour...we made it all back safely. 
Savanna was anxious to get the candy she was promised 
for being amazing on the tour,


but first we stopped in a couple of shops so Savanna could try 
on random hats that were dyed in authentic red dirt from Sedona. 


We kept finding these random pig statues. Miles hopped right up 
on the ledge to join Savanna in this cute pic...he is such a stud!


We tried to get Savanna to believe that 
this was a real person, but she was way too 
smart to pay any attention to our misguidance.


At last the candy she had been waiting for...
a clown decorated gumball with edible frosting.


Yum...doesn't it look delicious?...I would 
have much preferred the amazing tasting 
fudge that they also sold at the candy store, 
but the fudge did not have the brilliant colors 
that the gumballs had. It was like bugs to a light...
she couldn't look away from these little gumball goodies. 


This poor butterfly was the next to go.

On the way home we stopped for dinner at the Red Planet Diner, a whimsical little place with an Area 51/Roswell/UFO motif. It had little toy aliens hanging from the ceiling and a center ceiling piece that looked like the bottom of a UFO...very classy place. Wish I would have documented it, then again the government might not want you to know about it.
