Trip to Arches National Park/Moab

Kenneth had a trip down to Moab for a health screening, so we turned it into a quick family vacation. I hadn't been to Arches since I was a kid, and Kenneth had NEVER been to any of the national parks despite having lived here in Utah for 18 years. So one down, 4 more to go!

This Scooby Doo van was at a gas station on the turnoff to Moab.

Balanced Rock, with Vivian and Zane running towards it.

Kalel looking cool.

Vivian and Zane making sand angels.

Zane being awesome.

Natasha being beautiful.

Dad being a Dad.

ah, what a great couple!

8 yrs old Kalel

I could be a professional photographer, lol!

Ken at the top

Crazy hair...it was the wind!

Climbing rocks

Another great Natasha shot

going through narrow trails

I couldn't keep Vivian away from the sand!

This was my favorite spot, Sand Dune Arch, just like at the beach!

Sliding!

This was fun, instead of sledding, just slide down the sand hill.

Keilani wouldn't go "sledding"



Kalel sliding down on his butt, love that trail!

and Zane just ran straight down the hill!

Easter 2012

Ah look, Easter Bunny made a scavenger hunt!

the clues!

looking for clues

reading clues

Kalel's Easter basket

Vivian got earrings

Keilani got this necklace

Scripture reading cards, the scripture says, "For my soul delighteth in the scriptures and my heart pondereth them"

I wanted to get flowers and deliver  them to random people

so here they are with Easter messages, we left 3 of them on random car windshields to brighten someone's day, and the other three we gave to family.

The movie Hunger Games came out this week, so the girls had the characters in their mind...Glimmer being one of them.

Easter Eggs

That's a Tardis from Dr Who, the kids favorite tv show from the BBC

using the chalk they got in their baskets

you know I love this one!
