3300 miles later we had:
- Spent nights in Denver, Moab, Durango and Colby KS
- Visited 3 national parks
- Drove over crazy mountain passes
- Celebrated Jim's 40 Birthday!
We did more than just that but those are some of the highlights. Madeleine's favorite parts: Arches National Park, having slick rock as a playground and enjoying a root beer float the Moab Brewery. Hadley's favorite part: playing candy crush on my phone. I hoping she got more out of the trip than just that :) Tommy's favorite part may have been seeing the Durango train or maybe the monster truck at the Durango Fiesta Days parade. Jim's favorite part was probably the mountain biking. My favorite... hard to pick one but probably Arches National Park and going for my first mountain bike ride in about 7 years. It was a more of hike a bike than riding but still fun and amazing scenery.
Now for the first round of pics...

| I love this pic because it looks like Madeleine is leading a race up to view the Delicate Arch |
 |
| Viewpoint of Delicate Arch... hard to see in the picture |

| Hadley was not happy walking up to the viewpoint |

 |
| Madeleine was ready to keep on climbing |
 |
| Madeleine really enjoyed climbing on everything she could |
 |
| At Canyonlands National Park or Candylands National Park as Hadley says |
 |
| I was hoping for maybe a Christmas card pic but Tommy was not cooperating with looking at the camera |
 |
| Hadley wanted to pose with the canyon in the background |
