Moab canyoneering

We set out to Moab for a weekend of canyoneering.  We had a hotel with a pool, and used it to bribe the kids into hikes/canyons. It was Amelie's first time rapelling, and I was a little terrified, but she was not and did great. 

Rapelling off Morning Glory arch into Negro Bill Canyon

We had many onlookers below... I was sure someone was going to yell at me for my reckless parenting, but they applauded instead. We even ran into a family from Marshdale there!

Logan's imaginary dinosaur.  Mom and dad made him a homemade mask the night before, and it was so terrible I found him in bed crying that morning at the thought of having to wear it. We went with his trusty Toothless hat instead.

Amelie's note to the Switch Witch. In exchange for her candy, she would like a toy longneck that roars. Good luck, Switch Witch!
