This year for fall break we made 3 stops so I thought I would make them 3 different posts as well. Stop #1, Moab, UT. Several months ago Jeff signed up to run a half marathon and we had a great weekend spending time with family in a beautiful setting.
A little family picture with Landscape Arch behind us.
Kaden sporting his rock star pose for everyone.
Miss Avrey showing off her smile with a little dirt mixed in.
Jeff's grandparents from Idaho made the trip as well. They had never been to Arches before, and we were fortunate enough to have them in our car for the day. Needless to say we talked and laughed a lot as we drove through the park.
Jeff and Kaden sitting under Window arch. Kaden was pouting because Jeff wouldn't let him get too close to edge up there. Just love that stage where kids think they know it all!
Jeff finished the course in just under 2 hours. He said it was hard to keep an eye on the road with all of the scenery around. It was a perfect day for a race with no wind and a blue sky. A few hundred yards from the finish line, Jeff's brothers Nic and Derek were waiting with Trey who ran across the finish line with him. Trey was pretty excited to run part of the race with his dad.
Originally, Jeff thought he'd be running the race by himself, but was thrilled when his aunt Sharon decided to run it too.
The finish line was at a ranch about 15 miles up the Colorado River from Moab. What an amazing accomplishment and a wonderful weekend!

Way to go Jeff! That is awesome. I don't think I'll ever be up for running a half, that's crazy. I love that Trey got to run across the finish line with him. And so jealous of your fall break. We get nothing over here!
Way to go Jeff! That is awesome!
