I took the kids to St. George for the week of spring break. Jeff was in Chile so he couldn't come but our neighbors the Parry's and the Knudsen's came with us. We had a blast! My brother and sister in law, Joel and Julie were also there. We went hiking with Joel and Julie's family in Snow Canyon one of the days. It was a really pretty place.
I am always amazed at how incredible the mountains down there look. The swirls in them look like God took a paintbrush and did some pretty creative artwork.
We hiked to the top of a couple different ridges. (I was stupidly wearing my usual...... flip flops)
There is an area where there are some pioneer names. You can hike up to them and you can also repel just beside the names.
They were all from around 1881 to 1919.
Then on another day we went hiking up Slot Canyon with my neighbors.
We swam and swam and swam!
The younger kids caught 7 lizards and kept them in the pool in the garage. They built a little home in the pool for them with rocks and dirt.
We went shopping at the mall and Shasta, Bella, Abby and Sarah all got their ears pierced. We ate out, played tons of fun games (adults included!) like sharks and minnows, whiffle ball, freeze tag and capture the flag. Jens and Brayden hung out at Dixie State a lot with Coach Brumfield. Brayden got offered a scholarship to play football while we were there so he was pretty excited. We BBQ'ed burgers and made carne asada and soaked up every ounce of sun that we could get!
