Moab (March)

We had planned to go to Boston in March for David to go to a Teaching Convention and to visit my family, but due to the stomach flu making David miss class he couldn't miss to go to Boston.  We had to cancel our trip and work it around his class.  We were going to be getting home a day and a half before Kadence's hospital adventure and we were really looking forward to spending quality family time together.  Because of that we decided to go somewhere closer so we could still make memories.  We decided to go to Moab with Jeff, come home for his class, then leave in the morning for California. It wasn't what we were looking forward to, but it was still a lot of fun.  When we arrived we went to the "golden arch" for dinner. 
 We hiked to delicate arch as well.  (I have more pictures but they are on Davids computer)
 We were only there a two nights but the girls were exhausted from all the fun.

 We decided out of nowhere that we would take a sunset hummer tour.  It was a great choice!
 Both girls wanted to keep their hands up, but Shelby was beyond dedicated.  She kept them up clear until our first stop which was about 45 minutes in.



 Pictures never do justice, but it was absolutely gorgeous!  The tour guide took us up a huge hill backwards, made sure we went down a hill with our eyes closed (even his) and told us a lot of the educational facts that we had no clue about.






 It really was a spectacular end to our first day and I'm so glad we did it!
 We went to eat and Jay's Roman Orgy was on the menu....I didn't chance it.
 The next day was windy, but we managed to have a good time anyways.  We tried more local restaurants, went to Canyonlands and swam in the hotel pool.


I was hoping to have blogged it a while ago so that I could add more details, but getting it on here at all is at least something.  The girls had fun and so did the adults.  I am excited to go back again in a few years.
