We took off to Moab this year right after school got out for the kids. What better way to celebrate the end of another school year than visiting a national park named after your own family? Seriously though, we love Arches! It is one of the coolest places I've ever been. You see the most amazing things there. This year we were able to go with some of our best friends, the Nye's and the DeGroot's. We have such a good time with these families. Our kids are great friends and we get along very well. We all took trailers down and stayed in an awesome campground!
At night, we would bring out the TV and the kids would curl up for movie night while the adults played great games like "Fact or Crap". If you haven't played that one, it's a lot of fun.
Tate and his friend Kelton are about six months apart. They had a good time together. Here they are throwing rocks into a puddle left from a rainstorm the previous night.
Here we are near the "Three Gossips". That's the name of the rock formation to the left of Allen. It really looks like three ladies talking to each other.
We finally were able to line up all the kids in order of age. We have a 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2, and a 0 year old between us all. The only thing missing was a one-year old.
All the adults! Hannah took this picture for us and did a great job.
We love the Sand Dune Arch. It's one of our favorite places in the park. You can find the most amazing sand there. We spent hours playing in the cool, soft sand.
Allen and I at the top of Delicate Arch.
The little people in this picture really is our little family. I'm so proud of the kids for hiking all the way to Delicate Arch. It's not an easy hike, and they were awesome! What an amazing sight it is!
Having some fun in the pool at our campground. We'd jump in the pool everyday after we were done hiking and it felt heavenly. This vacation was so great! I would totally recommend it for those of you looking for a CHEAP, family-friendly vacation!
