St.George









So instead of spending our 3 day weekend at home watching MORE TV we decided to pack up and head south where it was a little warmer.  We went and stayed at the Holiday Inn with an indoor/outdoor pool (it was heated) and we actually swam outside!  We then we and spent the day at Red Rock and went hiking.  Evan was a trooper, he didn't start whining until we were almost back.  Charlotte had a lot of fun, she thought she was so cool when we would let her get a head on the trail.  She also got to climb on a rope and go over where a small waterfall was.  Then it was on to shopping (for me), my husband, the great man he is took the kids to a park while I went to the outlets and shopped.  Then we took a short drive to Mesquite where we stayed at Matt's bosses condo (no charge).  And I'll tell you what that is really no fun with kids.  We took the kids to the arcade and then when it was time to find a place to eat, (we didn't want to eat at a casino) so we drove and drove and drove around, bar, bar, old Denny's, bar, finally we found a Pizza Hut place called "wing's street", it was well... a pizza hut.  Then our drive home.  It was a very fun weekend.

GREAT PICTURES! I have never been down south except on my way to Vegas it makes me want to go! Red Rock, where is that? Is that where all the pictures of the river were? Is that Matt hiking on the rock? I am jealous, it looks like you all had a lot of fun! The kids are getting so BIG!
