Moab Spring Break: Dead Horse State Park

Spring Break arrived and we were packed and ready to head to Moab, UT. Bryan would stay a couple days more because he needed to do field work, but he would meet us for the weekend. My sister, Audrey, recently moved for a new job from Joshua Tree, CA. We've been visiting her on spring break for years so it was nice that she moved a few hours closer to home. We've had some great adventures with her. Sarah, Violet, and Ocean would also come up and meet us for a couple of days during the week. I was also happy that mom joined us on this trip. This was going to be a fun and memorable vacation.
Moab was crawling with people this weekend due to the Jeep Jamboree, spring break, and a no-fee weekend for national parks. We avoided going downtown.
Our first day there, Audrey had to work. So mom, the kids, and I went to one of my favorite places ~ Dead Horse Point:



Solar Evaporation Ponds:






It was in the 60's; what a beautiful day.
Ava is at the age where she *sighs* or *rolls her eyes* when I ask her to do things.
lol I knew this day would come. How long will it last?







Goose-neck of the Colorado River and tiny roads that resemble scars....





Panorama with my iphone (insert a dramatic tune)......




It's a magical place.






Silly Hamikiddies ;) 


It was great to be on an adventure with Grandma!




We enjoyed a little picnic while we were there.....


Isaac with his eyes inside out. Haha
Always the comedian...... he tried to sneak up on a raven :)


We had a little (Chip & Dale) audience who wanted to share our food. Obviously had taken many hand-outs before....



We ended the day driving down the river. It was beautiful. One day on the trip already under our belt.
