St. Georgia

The weekend after memorial day we had a wild hair to head south and visit St. George (other wise known as St Georgia at our house). We left Thursday and came back Monday. It was hot hot hot, but we didn't care because we spend most of the time in the water. We spent the day at Snow canyon hiking and playing on the petrified sand dunes, spent another day at Sand Hollow Reservoir playing in the water and with the sand and getting fried by the sun, and the third day we spent at the hotel pool and going to a movie "How to Train your Dragon" and visiting the Temple and Brigham Young Home. We swam every day and besides eating that is all the kids even cared about. They thought we didn't even have fun if we didn't swim. It was funny, I remember being just like that when I was a kid. What a beautiful place that Shane and I haven't visited for about 8 years. It has grown so much and is really loaded with fun things to do!

If you look close you see us in the bottom!

Sand Hollow Reservoir

Burying Braxton in the sand. Dakota wore those floaties the whole time even though the water was about 6 inches deep where they stayed.

We visited a really cool dinosaur place where they are digging for dinosaur tracks.

Snow Canyon, up in a hollow of the rocks.

Can you believe he is that strong?

All three boys hiked the whole time, Cam wouldn't even get in the pack, I just carried it for fun :)

The ride home was TORTURE! I can't even believe how annoying three boys can be for 5 straight hours. I am telling you I felt like a caged rat that couldn't escape the noise, arguing, and screaming. No one slept at all, they were too hyper. It was crazy and we were glad to say it was over and very glad to say it was only 5 hours and not a trip to California! Even when we got home they were hyper, so it was off to bed early for some much needed peace and quiet!
