With Dan's job right now, it's next to impossible to try to even think of planning any type of vacation this summer. So, instead of being bummed out, we made a spontaneous, and short trip to moab to go camping and hiking! We left Thursday after Dan got home from work, arrived just in time to set up camp and roast marshmallows. Which is weird when it's 90 degrees outside. We woke up Friday morning (after a very LONG night) and went hiking all day, got back to our campground to find that our tent had blown over, so we made our tin foil dinners (which, after a day of granola bars was very TASTY!) packed up camp and drove home!
Yes... we were brave for taking the kids. :)
And yes... this is me actually blogging! :)
We had only enough time (and energy) to do one hike, and we decided to go for the famous Delicate Arch hike. Easton was a real trooper, and hiked MOST of the way himself!
These two were our campgroup mascots! I swear they were waiting for us to feed them...
This is a goofy picture of me, but it shows how "done" Nixon was with the whole hiking/camping thing by the end of our day.

That's totally what our camping trips are like! Last year we went over Memorial Day and it rained all night. I haven't been able to bring myself to do it again since, although I really do want to go to Moab. Maybe we'll stay in a hotel. :-)
