At the start of our hike, when they were all still smiling.
The boys had spring break this week so we were excited to get out of the cold and head to sunshine and warmth in good old St. George this week an visit with Grandparents and Maddi.
We packed our bags and informed Mema and Grandpa that their spare bedrooms would be occupied for a few days and off we went. The first day I was seriously questioning the decision as it was just as cold and windy as it was at home. We went to the baseball park to get some practice in for Jake but the wind was brutal. We then decided to drive around a bit and ended up at the Dixie on the mountain. By then the wind had calmed a bit and we hiked around for a while.
The kids hadn't seen Hunger Games yet so Kevin, Maddi and Thomas went to see that while Jacob and I saw the Lorax as Hunger Games was a bit too violent for a 10 year old. Then we went to one of our Favorite St. George places, The Pizza Factory for some yummy pizza and killer bread twists. The next day we got up and were going to drive to Zions but figured it was cheaper to go to Snow Canyon and the kids had never been there. It was the right decision. The crowds were smaller and you could drive everywhere you needed to go and there were some pretty fun hikes and things to see. The kids were mad at me because I made them go on a super long hike and the majority of it was in deep sand and really hard to hike in. At the end there was supposed to be a pool but it was actually a puddle. Maddi had the day off from class so she was able to come with us too.
We ate at Marv's, another one of our favorite places and then hit the hot tub after dark.
Wednesday we spent poolside and I came home with a killer sunburn but it felt SO good to be out in the sunshine! I have decided that I really don't like living in the snow and I need to move to somewhere warm and sunny.
We woke up Thursday morning and hit the trail for a run before heading back home.
We came home for baseball as Jacob had a big practice Thursday night and a scrimmage Saturday morning.
We woke up this morning to snow....YUCK! If I had known that we would get snow I would never have come home!!!
There is too much snow to even have a baseball game Saturday. Why did we come home????????
Sunshine, warmth, hiking, good food (Mema's pork, beef, roast stuff ha ha) a few days with Mema and Grandpa and a few days with Maddi. I wish spring break was longer!!!
