Arches Adventures

 

After a year and 2 vaccine shots we decided to leave the bunker and head down to Moab. We spent 2 days in Arches and enjoyed the awesome scenery with warm weather. We had trained for a few months of walks with the kids so they were ready to hike!

This time was extra fun because Grandpa and Grandma Musser came along! They gave Sarah and I a chance to hike Delicate Arch together which was a real treat. We also all got to hike the park avenue trail which requires some car shuttling.

Paul (aka Batman) was a trooper and did all the hikes too, at his own pace. He was excited for the stair steps and liked to count them out loud. He kept us inspired by singing 'Be what I Believe' many times. He ate the trail mix but only the M&M's and was very specific which colors.

 Half the people we passed commented on the princess in the carrier. Penny was a good sport and only complained when we buckled her in. She patted my back and said 'Da da' :) Then she usually passed out half way through the hike.

  

The girls were in the lead most of the time and were busy climbing up everything. There were lots of knee scrapes but nothing broken.
