Moab brought such a welcome bit of sunshine and warmth! This winter just seems to drag on and on. Too many gray days, I just want some sunshine so I can go ride my bike!The mornings in Moab were a bit chilly but warmed up perfectly throughout the day. It was so fun for the kids to roam free with their cousins, catching lizards, playing in the sand, sitting in the hot tub and having one big slumber party! Malia often said when she was playing in the sand, " I love this, its so wonderful!" She was a trooper climbing about 3/4 of the way up to delicate arch all on her own. Carson couldn't wait to see the "Rock Rainbow" as he called it and was the first one up.
Heidi and Lance made fantastic breakfasts, and we had lots of fun on the Steelbender Trail. Wes is such a great driver, he is great at everything outdoorsy, which I have always loved about him. He makes everything look easy, and though I have no intentions of driving this stuff, he goes up it and might as well be yawning. The Ranger was also fun, if not funner. Its like a cadillac it's so smooth. We'd love to get a place in Moab and stock it with one of those.
Malia fell asleep on the trail and little Morgan held her head in place from all the jarring of the rocky ride. Then, sorrell got sleepy and he held her head also. He is the most compassionate child.
Linz and I went biking a bit, and I have really started to enjoy road riding. It still doesn't come close to mountain biking in terms of fun'ness, but I'll take riding a bike any day.
I am already looking forward to the next family trip to Moab, the kids loved it and we need to hit the big sand pit next time!
