Moab

Our trip to Moab was fun and short. On the way down we stopped in Price, Utah to visit the Dinosaur museum. When Hailey saw one of the skulls she said "Somebody lost there head" She was a little concerned!! I tried to explain that it didn't need it anymore!!! Kids say funny things. They especially enjoyed digging in the dirt to discover fossils.
After the museum we headed to Moab...................
The drive was beautiful!! Once we found our campsite, it was time to get to work and unload. We made dutch oven meatloaf and played some baseball with the kids. It was stinking HOT!! The wind started to pick up, and man did it blow. I thought we were going to all blow away!! It never stopped!! The kids slept like rocks, but Jer and I didn't get any sleep at all.
The next morning we were up bright and early, NOT by choice! Couldn't ignore Logan's screaming with him so close. Jer made us a yummy breakfast. I do love camping food! Then we were off to Arches National Park. The views were amazing!! I took lots of pictures, too many to ever post!! We didn't do any hiking, the kids weren't in any mood. With all the driving, they were done!! We headed back to have lunch and pack up camp. Jer decided his back couldn't handle another night of no sleep!! After we packed up we headed to the nearby lake. The girls bothered Jer since we got to Moab to go fishing. We couldn't let the Princess and Dora poles go unused!!. They love when Jer takes them fishing. Hope Logan loves fishing as much as the girls do. We were heading away from the Lake and it started to rain. We were so glad that we were on our way home!! It is always nice to be back in your own bed!!
So it was quick, but we still had fun!!
