MOAB!!!
We love Moab! Sunshine is the reason why we torture ourselves all winter. We run and run (or pretend to run and run) all winter long so that we can be ready for the Moab race every spring. It gives us an excuse to pack up the chumps and head toward the sun. By mid-March we can always use a few more freckles. I realize that these pictures would be better in a slide show of some sort but that would require technical ability that I do not possess. Hope you know how to use your scroll bar!
Dead Horse Point:
WOW! Now that is an amazing view.
It is pretty windy at the top of Moab. Kati and I tried to look beautiful despite the trying conditions.
Arches National Park:
Gracie inpersonating "Mr. Incredible."
The whole group standing underneath Pine Tree Arch.
Running down the sandy hill.
Aeva figured out that the backpack can be much less work for her little legs.
Daddy can also serve as an alternative mode of transportation.
This is our tour guide. Her name is Grandma Rett.
The girls coming out of the sandwich cave (a made up name of course). They were trying to convince us that there is no such thing as a Sand Witch.
They made it to the top of a 3 foot boulder. Quite an accomplishment (especially if you are only 2 feet tall).
Race Day:
The girls get to play at the park while we run ourselves to death. Again, totally worth it!
Aeva, remembering what it feels like to go down the slide. Last summer she was too little to do it by herself.
Kati had her personal best. Good work!

Isn't Moab dirt the best? I love it! All that redness in your socks after hiking around Arches is enough to make me contemplate buying a set of 12 socks that are just red for the occasion.
Glad you had fun! Did you see Mikey's solar panels?
Hey, where are the pictures of you and Troy in the race? You should post a couple so everyone knows that you were truely a participant!!! As usual not my best side, could you put a picture of some movie star and pretend it is me? Great trip, lots of fun. I love my kids and I really love my grandkids........
Grandma Rett
That was a blast!! I can attest to the fact that none of the pictures of me and Tiff finishing the race are good. They are all blurry we were just running way too fast. They all look like a streak of white lighting blurring across the picture. Love the mOab pics of the family.....what a fun trip!! You forgot to mention that you guys stayed in the penthouse while the rest of us slept in the gallows.
Why is my tongue out?? It was a way fun trip!! Anyone else want another slice of Zax's pizza...
