When we decided on visiting Arizona for our one year anniversary trip, we were not especially jumping off the walls with excitement. It was a reasonable location (pricepoint wise) and we knew there would be plenty of opportunities for hiking and being active…and trying good food. I went in with an open mind, but I didn’t really know anything about Arizona.

So yea….we were NOT prepared to fall in love with Arizona. But we are. Hands down, one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been too. We drove to Sedona and the Grand Canyon while we were there, and ya’ll. VIEWS. Views on top of views. That place is just majestic. It honestly surpasses Colorado with its diverse beauty and mountains, canyons, wildlife, greenery. I just love it all.
