It's tradition: we go to Monticello every Memorial Day camping with Ry's family and we always have a good time. This year, Ryan was coerced by me to rent a trailer for the weekend because I don't enjoy camping in a tent while pregnant. So we did rent one and left Wednesday morning to go just our family to Goblin Valley then on down to Monticello to set up camp for the rest of the family to join us! We had some great times playing Hide n' Seek among the goblins, and even found some lizards! Then we found a new friend that morning as we left: a scorpion. It was only a small, silver dollar size scorpion, but still scared Ryan as he removed the wood from under the trailer hitch!!
We stopped on Thursday in Moab, then went on to Wilson Arch and took a minute to hike up to it! Fun!
It was pouring rain both Thursday and Friday; but by Saturday we had a nice overcast day with a lot of fun pools to ride the four wheelers through and for the dogs to swim in!! The cousins had so much fun playing with play-doh, coloring, and just plain having fun hiking around and adventuring together. We always visit Grandpa Day's grave in Monticello for Memorial Day, and I just love the fun time we all have together laughing around the campfire and playing together. We always say that we might need a different location- it always rains! But it always turns out great- we always have fun and the memories always make us laugh and smile!

What a great tradition - and it looks like so much fun! Your kiddies will always remember the "cousin" times...at least I do!
