Moab Getaway

For our Anniversary we headed out to Moab without the kids.  The 3.5 hour drive was so nice, we were able to have some adult conversations with no interruptions or worry about when the kids were going to get tired of their carseat.  We ate some yummy food, relaxed in the hot tub and had a day of hiking in the sun!
Corona Arch
They dug out the rocks for the train tracks, it was really neat.  Of course we had to jump on it.
 
 The sun was shining, it was a beautiful day and beautiful hikes.
 We grabbed some lunch and took it with us so we could get another hike in.  We went to the Negro Bill Trail and hiked to Morning Glory Natural Bridge.  There were a lot of river crossings like this, and Spencer made fun of me every time for using my arms as balance...hello, don't most people do that??!!
We ate at Pasta Jay's for our Italian Dinner.  It was YUMMY!!! We recommend the Gnocci in the Pesto Sauce.  That was a recommendation to us and we were glad to brave the Gnocci. [we had dumplings in Austriaand were scarred forever]  We also got a delish shake from the Diner around there as well.

The time went by quickly, and we thought of the kids a lot, but didn't miss them as much this year as last.  They were in good hands, and Allstar just adores his Grandma DaNell; he always prefers her over us anyway, and totally cried when we got home and she had to leave!

Looks like so much fun! We already miss all the outdoor activities within hours of our home. Definitely not as many options here. Haha Tell little Allstar happy birthday for us! I can't believe he is already 2!
