Moab

We have been trying to get to Moab for a while this spring, but the wet, wet, wet, cold weather has been preventing us.  So, we finally got there at the beginning of this week.  Here are the few shots I manged to come away with.  We also did some biking.  Hadden did his first official single track mountain trail.  He loved it and we (the parents) remembered how fun it is!  Calla rode on one of those bikes that hooks to an adult seat post.  She was a real trooper and didn’t fall off once, even in the rocky spots, which were very bumpy for her!

Windy is definitely an understatment!  There were spots where the wind was actually moving Calla!  Hadden, who doesn’t like sunglasses, had sand washed out of his eyes after this hike.

Bend in the Colorado River.  Off to the left is the actual Point.

We were literally being blown over at this point!

The next day we did some hiking in Arches.  Here is The Organ.  Hadden thought that was fun, since he loves the piano and wants to learn to play the organ some day.

Fun updates! Do Chris's parents have a house in Arizona? That is great that Hadden has done so well at his new school! I'm very happy for him (and you)!

We hit Moab in May and LOVED it. Haven't gotten around to posting about it yet, but we did Double O as well. FUN!
