Spring Break in Moab

We left the snow and headed South for the remainder of the kids Spring Break. We took the raft and it was warm enough to float the river. The kids loved being on the raft and even came home with sunburns. Brians boys introduced us to some sand sledding. The kids took snow sleds and raced down the sand. They loved the ride down, just not the sand up their noses, in their ears and in their mouths! Our Spring Break began more like Christmas Break but ended nice and warm. The sun was wonderful! Hatalee said she and River fought over who got to sit in back- I don't know why they didn't want to sit up front.
Nathan had to take a turn, but didn't go quite as fast as the kids.













We stopped at this little beach and ate lunch- and drank in as much sun as we could!

Wait, what? No stupid human tricks? Maybe it takes all 4 Murdock brothers to have enough testosterone to crack wrists, backbones, ankles and arms. Looks like a fun trip. Glad you found some sun!

That looks like so much fun. I haven't been to Moab since my boys were probably 1 & 2? Time to go again. Where do you guys like to stay?

That first picture is classic. I love it. Next time take me... Can you believe I am related to you and I've NEVER been to Moab??
