Moab

Before Steve and I had kids we would go to Moab in May with a big group of friends and camp for the weekend....it was a blast.  We have wanted to go back for years now that we have kids, but never got it together.  Well, we did this year and it was amazing.  We rented a pop up camper and headed west with about 40+ friends, and friends of friends!  It was an amazing group....some new, and some old.  Lots of kids this year and that was a first.  We camped at our usual spot near Dead Horse Canyon....Lost Canyon is amazing as you can see.  However, we are on an "island in the sky" and being near a 600ft cliff was a bit nerve wracking with so many kids.  The kids did so well, never wandered away....so this is a trip we plan to continue with Emmy and Wyatt!

We hiked Delicate Arch which is probably one of the most photographed arches in the US!  Its on the Utah license plate.  Emerson did this hike!  On her own two feet!  That is a big accomplishment for her.....she is usually complaining after 50ft.  We promised her ice-cream and she did it!  We are so proud of her, she didn't complain much.  Wyatt rode in the pack on Steve's back and never made a peep.  The hike took us a bit longer with Emmy....I think about 3 hours start to finish, but it was worth every minute. Such a great memory for Steve and I.
