Moab

This year we decided to take a little trip to Moab for some rest and family fun.  This is our first time taking a couple day trip with Just our kids and us.  We had a fantastic time!

Our first night we ate at the Moab Diner--I highly recommend it.  

 While there, a group of bikers came into the diner.  Sophie pointed and loudly shouted, "Look Mom, monsters!"  Justin and I sheepishly tried to get her to stop, but she just kept pointing and shouting.  Luckily, the bikers were good-natured about the whole thing.  I really was worried we'd end up in a biker brawl!

 Katie zonked!  Beds always look more comfortable when babies are sleeping in them.  This bed was really comfortable though...

 Justin hid my birthday cards in the glove box, so I could open them on my birthday.  Sophie's card was tucked in among mine, so she got to open hers too.  She loved this card from my Grandma Sullivan.  She carried it around all day.

 On our way out of town, Sophie shouted, "Mater!" over and over again.  We could not figure out what she was talking about until we saw this little beauty in a parking lot.  We had to visit him each time we passed from then on.

 We snagged a Chinese tourist to snap a family photo.

 We decided to hike to delicate arch, but the hike was harder now that we have kids.  We were still moving along pretty well until Sophie tripped and had blood pouring from her mouth and chin.  A little visit to the car for the first aid kit fixed her right up, and we drove a little ways and looked at delicate arch from a distance.

 Sophie was obsessed with picking up sticks.  We made her put them all back before we left though....

 Katie was totally chill with having this bed all to herself.

This trip was definitely a fantastic one!  We also played at a really cool park with hundreds of xylophones, and we went bowling, but those photos are on my other camera which is currently MIA.  I'll have to add them when it surfaces.
