On Holiday (aka Vacation)

Last week we headed south to find some warm weather. We found it!! And had a great time in St. George!! We spent our days exploring nature trails, swimming, napping, swimming some more, and watching the Disney Channel. Here are a few highlights of our holiday (vacation) in St. George. . .
Here are Noah and Vance patiently waiting for the jack rabbit to come out of the bushes. He never did again. Dang it.
Notice the rabbit ears? Good job Van!
And an awesome action shot of Marlee jumping.
We ate out one evening at a local Mexican restaurant. Vance had the longest french fry anyone has ever seen!!Later the waitress brought out sombreros for us to wear. The kids LOVED it!! And yes, Vance is still working on that french fry.Marlee absolutely loves rice and beans (especially black beans). She was in heaven!
The city has a fun Main Street to walk down. It has bronze sculptures to enjoy along the way. And a little water/splash park at the end. Nice shades Noah!
And they were all a little freaked out at Brother Brigham. Especially Vance.
Elijah loved being out of his stroller.And he didn't seem to mind that the water was freezing cold.
Whew!! That was a lot of photos. I'm impressed if you are still reading this. But don't worry, if you did enjoy it, I have a few more pictures to add tomorrow. . .
