real men wear pink and a new superhero

May 20th, 2009

So we have a new superhero in the family.

Its supergirl. Sporting her cape and saving her brothers from future disasters.

.

Don’t get too close.. she does not have full control over those powers just yet and she may cry at any moment.

We spent the past week in Amarillo. While we there touring the big city, we decided to visit Palo Duro Canyon, which by the way, is the second largest canyon in the US and a short drive from Amarillo. So for mothers day we headed out for a day of hiking and Geocaching in the park.

Did you know that read men wear PINK! That is right and you heard it here first. When we arrived in
in Amarillo, it seems that I forgot that Amarillo is 250 miles north of Midland and it is in a different climate zone and …… I forgot to check the weather! It was cold. Or rather at least cool enough I needed a jacket. Well, at the beginning of May, in any town, it is quite difficult to find jackets of any type for any one and sometimes you just have to wear what you can find. So the boys got pink!

With stars and flowers!

Jeff is rarely cold.  Sometimes I think he is like a cold blooded lizard and just adapts to his environment.

Palo Duro Canyon.

Hiking around and checking out some birds.

They just could not get enough it. The boys probably would have hiked  and climbed all day!

Future naturalist right here!

And then we stumbled upon this giant piece of art work. Don’t ask me any questions about it because it was much too cold for me to even get out of the car.

Overall, we really enjoyed Amarillo and the Canyon was simply beautiful. Looking forward to going back again in the future.
