Arches

I think we may all actually live. Hooray!








In the meantime, we had a pretty fun time on Saturday morning. We took the kids to Arches National Park for the first time. I think it's one of the coolest places ever. I've been before, but it's just as amazing every time I see it.
Our first stop was the Windows Arch.
Once The Bug figured out he could climb on those rocks he was in heaven! We had to keep a close watch on him or he would've been up on top in no time.
The Bee is a little more cautious. Which is probably a good thing.

Next we went on a little hike to the Sandy Arch. We'd never stopped at this one before so it was quite a pleasant surprise for all of us. It was a relatively small arch, but surrounded by the most beautiful, soft sand you can imagine. All the kids loved it. And once again, The Bug would have been happy to keep on climbing!












The Babe was not feeling so good, but she kept snuggled up to me and slept all the way home. It took a few days, but I think she's back to her healthy little self now too. I hope!

Amazing landscape!
W would have joined the Bug in his adventurous climbing. I can understand why/how your Bug would have loved the freedom and adventure.
