Moab!!

 

 The first part of October we headed to Moab for one last family trip for the year!

But I was lucky enough to meet our newest niece Ellie the day before we left!

She is so cute and tiny!! I just love being an aunt! Congrats Colin and Cori!

 We got to Moab the night before Lily's birthday so on her 6th birthday we hiked the biggest hike of our trip...Delicate! I was a bit worried because Lily isn't much of a hiker. But it is amazing what turning another year older and a bribe of a present at the top can do for you!

She didn't complain once the whole way to the top!! She kept reminding me that she was now 6 and she was so much tougher now!

Above is Macy in the backpack with Brandon and Tyson!

 Tyson tried to catch every lizard he found, but they were too quick, but he did catch this blurry frog!

 I spy a lizard!!

 Lily showing us she is 6 :) she liked all the trail markers!

 A cute old lady offered to take a pic of us, Lily told her it was her birthday so at the top of Delicate a cute group of old people sang "Happy Birthday" to her and she LOVED it!

We saw them later that day at another arch and they sang to her again!!

So cute!

 Her earned present at the top!

 Frozen jewelry!!

 Tyson was brave enough to hike over to the arch (Brandon barely let him go... !)

 Flexing our stuff at the small arch by delicate!

 Macy loved peeking into the starter arches!!

 Lily saving Tyson from falling off the cliff ;)

 The petroglyphs

 Her jewelry! At the bottom of delicate she got to open another present for not complaining on the way down...frozen board game!!

 The classic balanced rock pictures!

 Checking out the view!

 We have a bunch of climbers!

Little Macy was quite upset we didn't always let her hike as high as Tyson!

 Tyson returning the favor and saving Lily from the cliff!

 Moab selfie!

 Selfie with my Macy bug!

 The kids in the slots!

 We had Tyson take a pic of us being cool like the kids but when we saw all the pics he took this is what you got...you couldn't even tell what we were doing...

 So we did it again because we are cool like that!!

 Our favorite arch! (Next to Delicate)

 Sand dune arch!!

 Silly Macy!!

 We took the long way on this hike and the kids were pretty ticked! It was really pretty, but they were pretty done hiking!

We had the best time in Moab!

We will be doing this trip again!!

Where's Macy?!?
