Well needed vacation

Oh the beautiful scenery of Moab, UT
This was the view of the Colorado River standing in our campsite. It was only about ankle deep and only about 10 degrees so it was perfect to swim in.....NOT! Londyn didnt seem to mind.



Corver fell asleep on Syd's shoulders walking back from the river. We must have worn him out!

This is the happy boy awake! He loved it, although he wanted to get down and crawl he enjoyed all the people.


Okay so we went on a "short" 7.5 mile hike! And yes, we took Londyn... call us crazy but we were told it was a 4 mile hike total. Turns out its almost 4 miles one way! So needless to say we (well Troy and Grey) had to carry her out the 3.7 miles because she fell asleep!

Getting ready for the hike!

This is the arch we hiked to! It was beautiful!

Cant beat the scenery!
Oh, the sandhill! It was a blast and Londyn was in heaven! She climbed up pretty far on her own and when I asked her how far she went her reply was "um...two pounds" ha ha I love those kind of answers.

She was not happy when she realized we were leaving and she never made it to the top!

Fun tie dye project! We all made our own shirts and I know you cant see this pic well but our little family had a lot of white showing on our shirts. I want to do mine over again, so if anyone is interested in a tie dye project let me know!
Thanks to Amy, Craig, Melanie and Cory for organizing this fun weekend. It was well needed and I am ready to go back!

Wow! What a large group of you in that last picture. Looks like a fun little vacation. Glad to see that Grey is back in town. Never fun to be apart from each other. The kids are growing like weeds. They both look so grown up. Hope all is well for your cute little family. Have a good week.

Looks like you guys had a blast on your trip to Moab!!! so glad! :) (And it was needed...you totally deserved it :) My favorite shots are of London going down the sand hill on her little bum, and then the one on the tailgate where she's sad that she didn't make it too the top...heehee...too precious!
