MoaB!

Last thursday we left for a 4-wheelers dream vacation to MoAb! Every year the Smith family (Codys step mom Cathys Clan)goes on a 4-wheeling trip there and this year we FINALLY were able to go with! It was alot of fun! The kids had a BLaST.. Even Gage did SOO well. I was so worried because he wasn't feeling good and Thursday night ended up terrible with him coughing and throwing up all night, but our little trooper did fantastic. He hung in there, slept while 4-wheeling and would wake up when the engines stopped so happy and content. Props to my sweet little Gager boy. Alyssa did so good on the little four wheeler, she was taking it around some knarly stuff! Thanks to Tanner for following her and getting her out of some hairy situations. :) I wished I had my camera there seeing her go through some of it. Good drivin Lou! She was driven out come saturday she stayed and hung out swimming with some of her favorite girl cousins.. Wish I would have gotten pictures of them! ThaNk YoU so SO much Rick and Cathy for taking us with and for ALL you do! ThAnK YoU for helping out with the kids so much that we could make it possible! Thank you Christine, Tanner, Conner, Chelsea, Sam and Tyler and everyone else who helped out with them as well! We love you guys! The Boys saw this Boulder just BeGGiNg to be thrown off the side of the mountain. So in attempt to change the world and the way the 'CriCk' Flows they pushed part of it off. To see the Video click HERE.. it was entertaining! I had a hard time picking out favorite pictures so there's a variety. The scenery was BeAuTiFuL of course. These rides were day long adventures! fridays was probably a 20 mile Ride, and Saturdays maybe 10 or 15.. although it took just as long with all the Jeeps, Bikes and other 4 wheelers we saw along the way.

Looks like a BLAST...I"m totally jealous.

I too loved the picture of Weston taking a leak. Classic!!

My other favorite is the one of you and Cody riding the 4 wheeler with Gage straped to the front. {What on earth?!?!} ;)

Looks like so much fun. 4 wheeling trips are the funnest I think. We go to the desert or the dunes though where we don't really have to worry about getting stuck in any rivers! :)
It's always nice to get away for a while though!

Hey i tought Weston how to pee... :) And that four wheeler slightly resembles mine. :( I wish we could have gone. but I don't think we could fit six people on the four wheeler. I love that trip. And sweet ride Lys. I love you guys. I'm glad you guys finally got to experience the moab trip. Looks like Tanner sunk it again. :) Typical...
