St. George Vacation

Every year over my birthday, we go on a family vacation to St. George. Since the babies were going to be so small, we weren't going to go this year. Then my sister, Stacie, invited us, and we couldn't refuse. They were taking Kelby down to register at Dixie. We absolutely LOVE it down there and would move in a heartbeat if the job market was better. It was also wonderful that Stacie got us $29 hotel rooms at the Hampton. Yahoo for employee discounts!We had a lot of fun at the hotel pool. We even took the babies down to relax in the shade, on the lounge chairs while we swam.
One day we went to our favorite lunch spot, Judds General Store and then went over to the Town Square Park. They have made a little river and a fountain for kids to play in.
Lucas loved playing in the water.
Out of all the times we have been there, we have never gone to Snow Canyon. Mike and Stacie suggested it and we jumped at the chance. It is beautiful! We went on a small hike. Ron and Mike carried the babies in the front carriers. I didn't trust my footing to carry a baby. The babies loved it! Emrie was even sad to get out. We had so much fun. The only bummer was that it was SO windy that day. Next time we go, we hope that it is not windy and we will let Lucas play in the red sand.
We went to a lot of yummy restaurants. We tried Smash Burger and it was delicious! I am glad there is one in Salt Lake, so I can feed my cravings for it.
We went to Mongolian BBQ. Lucas thought it was tasty. We also hit Panama Grill, Nielson's Frozen Custard, Bear Paw Cafe, Krave Frozen Yogurt, Brick Oven Pizza & Pasta and my new favorite, ParrotHead Island Broiler. YUMMY!

What a wonderful and relaxing vacation. I am so excited that Kelby is going to Dixie. That gives us an excuse to go down again before June 2011. :)
