Moab!!

Pete and I went camping in Moab, UT with another couple who are our good friends. We had such a blast!! The red rock in Moab is just amazing. I think that red rock plateaus are quickly becoming my favorite type of nature, like you see in Moab, New Mexico, places like that. Our campsite was fun, very close quarters though. We did get to know our neighbors pretty well!

This is Scott and Cindy Hampshire, the friends that we went with, eating the pancakes we make the first morning we were there


The first place we went was to "Balanced Rock" which was really cool! Also the weather was just beautiful which made the trip even better


Haha here is me being a complete nerd :)


Next we hiked to "Delicate Arch", the hike was slick rock like I'm sitting on almost the entire way there


We made it!!




Next we went to "Dead Horse Point" which just took my breath away. Pictures just don't do it justice!



We even got to see some petroglyphs!


Pete at the "Dead Horse Point" gift shop, hahaha


The next day we hiked up to "Landscape Arch" and "Double O Arch" which was my favorite hike because we had to climb all over rocks and next to cliffs, haha I kind of felt like an explorer. It was so much fun!!


The girls!


And the boys!



We found a mini-cave along the hike so of course we had to climb into it :)


Victory!!


This trip was so amazing! We had a complete blast and I can't wait to go again. I never cease to be amazed by the beautiful world God created. I officially LOVE Moab!
