Moab - Delicate Arch

Welcome to Utah, Cati!

The sign turned neon!

Beckett is ready to go to Moab!

The moon greets us on our way.
This picture does not do justice.
It was so much bigger in real life!

Cati, Cecily, Beckett, & Deserae
get ready to climb up the
mountain in Moab.

It was around 84 degrees.

But it was hot.

At last we found some shade!

Climb the rock stairs.

Pioneer children sang as they
walked & walked & walked & walked.....

More shade! Yay!!

Interesting geological sites along the way!

More shade! I didn't realize that
we had found so much shade!

Beckett loves Mom carrying him!

We spot our first arch!

It's a beauty!

Everywhere we looked there was something
interesting & fascinating to see!

We rounded the corner and beheld....

The Delicate Arch!
Cecily & Cati are in this picture somewhere!

It was waaaaay impressive!
Cecily & Cati are standing in the middle.

Magnificent!

There was wildlife waiting to eat our apple core!

Beckett playing opposite the arch.

This bird was what you would call a
BIG BIRD!

Deserae & Beckett feeling fulfilled

after our 'little' hike!

Gigi, Deserae & Beckett loving the outdoors!

Scenery on the opposite side of the Arch.

Gorgeous Red Rock!

Beckett taking Auntie Des for a walk!

It was not level here...
Beckett had a hard time walking.

Another arch. Beautiful!

Walking downward!

On our way we would see piles of rocks.
These were put there to show people the
way to the Delicate Arch.

On top of the rock pile we saw Mr Friendly Lizard!

One could get lost if not for the rock piles!

Umbrellas came in very handy to protect us from the sun.

Deserae, Cati, Cecily & Beckett walking some more.

The scenery was spectacular!

At last Beckett was so tired from all that
walking. He fell fast asleep!

We saw a little frog in the creek as we walked
over the bridge.

This man was a crazy man.
He took his family to live way out in
the middle of nowhere in the hot dessert
for 10 years! Click on the picture and
you'll be able to read it.

Here was his second house after his daughter
convinced him to build a more civilized home.

Beckett is back in his car seat and is
ready for more adventures!

Let's All Scream for Ice Cream!

Beckett Screams

You scream!

We all scream....


For Ice Cream!

We had to take Cati to Leatherby's!

She enjoyed it very much!

Combing my hair,

and getting ready

with my Great Big Smile

For Church!

Cati even helped

me with my hairdo!

Smiling all the while.

Ryan, Beckett, Cecily, & Cati.
Saying goodbye to Cati.

Back to Idaho!

The Cutest Grandkids!

Alexis & Her Big Dark Eyes!

I just love to sit and look really cute!

I love to smile silly!

Everyone clap with me!

I'm wide awake!

Mom Look!
I can play without looking
at the keys!

This is a great toy that I just found!

Max Getting the Beat!

Beckett tinkling the ivories!

Love the song that these
little fingers play!
