Vacation in St. George

Getting ready to swim in the hotel pool!

Taylor had a 3 1/2 day vacation so we decided to visit St. George for the Fourth of July and my birthday. We left on Thursday afternoon and stayed until Sunday.

We swam in the hotel pool the minute we got there on Thursday and every day we were there. Carter and Serena both have life jackets and can swim around. Aleeya had an inner tube that she sits inside and enjoyed floating around.

We saw "Footloose" at the Tuachan. It was awesome! Carter and Aleeya sat through the whole thing with me. Serena had to be taken out by Taylor during the first half, she didn't want to sit.

We saw the show on the 4th so afterwards they played "Proud to be an American" and did a great fireworks display. Aleeya didn't even cry with the loud noises. Serena got her blanket and laid on the ground, she was not a fan.

We visited the St. George temple grounds and visitors center and then played at a park that had fountains to run through. We also got a pay-per-view movie at the hotel and watched "Monsters vs. Aliens."

It was a fun and relaxing vacation and I enjoyed the time to talk with Taylor during the drive to and from. The kids napped or watched DVD's for most of the drive. We stopped in Lehi on the way home and ended up going over to Uncle John and Aunt Dorothy's house. It was nice to see family and give the kids a chance to stretch!
