Fall Break

We spent fall break in St. George with all my family. We had a great time as always and enjoyed the warmer weather we had escaped to, as it was very cold at home. My camera wasn't very cooperative and so I didn't take many pictures this time.

How we spent the 4 days:

*The guys golfed 2 days in a row...that equaled about 10+ hours. I don't get it, but they loved it and probably would have played a third day if it weren't for the astronomical green fees during peak season!

*We visited the Wildlife Museum which the kids LOVED. We went right before they closed so we only had about 30 minutes to rush through the whole thing.

*We went swimming. No pictures, but we had a blast. It's always the favorite thing to do when we go down there.

*The girls all went to see Annie at Tuacahn. It was FANTASTIC. Halle loved it and sang along to all the songs.

*The girls also got a few hours of shopping in. Hit the outlet mall and found some great deals.

*We took the kids to the park.



*We played many games. Halle and Lauren did this nonstop. Halle loves having another girl around to play with. Her and Lauren get along great.
*The kids spent the majority of the time outside on the swings, digging in the sand, or riding bikes and scooters.


*Mostly we just hung out and enjoyed doing nothing. The kids entertained each other which makes for a very low key trip.
Aidan and Colby were inseparable.

Avery got lots of Grandma time.

Me and my sister. A little too close for a no makeup picture!

We enjoyed watching conference together. We left just after the morning session on Sunday and were able to listen on the radio for the second session as we drove home. The kids even all fell asleep so I was able to listen without interruption for half of it. I loved it and always end up wanting more when its over. It was a great way to end the weekend getaway.
