St. George

Last Weekend we took a quick trip to St. George. I had SEP conferences last week and Kelly was still out of town working with his Dad. My mom was the saving grace and picked the boys up from school on Wednesday and kept them over night. Then Thursday they got up and went to St. George. Kelly got home Thursday evening. Friday I took work off (a great break after SEP's) , we stopped at the doctor for Kelly's six week check up on his wrist. He got approval to go back to normal activity (including riding four wheelers, which he can't wait to do, maybe tomorrow!). Then it was off to St. George. We met up with my family for lunch at an old fashioned type soda shop were we had soups and bread sticks. Then we took the kids checked into our hotel and went swimming. That night we went to Touchan to see the musical "Big River" it was well done and I think the kids enjoyed what they saw before they fell asleep. Kelly liked it, it was just colorful enough for him. While we were at the play the weather took a turn for the cold. Friday had been a beautiful day but the wind started that night and brought in cold storm. Saturday we spent the morning shopping for warmer clothes (at least warmer clothes for me). Then we took the boys to Fiesta Fun. We enjoyed a few trips around the go-cart track

and some mini- golf. The wind helped or hurt a few swings on the golf course but we still had fun!

That night we went to dinner with everyone at Ruby River and then Mom, Dad, Chelsea, Cameron, and I went to see "Les Miserable" Despite the fact that it was raining until about two minutes before the play started and it was a chilly 42 degree's the play was great! We drank lot's of hot chocolate and piled under blankets. Thanks Kelly who went and bought me thermals and remembered to bring me a hat, gloves, and hand warmers. I would have been miserable with out them. He knows how to take care of me! The weekend was a fun little get away!

It was a fun weekend! Thanks for being so nice to Autumn and River ~ they like hanging out with your boys and playing with Kelly! I'm glad we got to spend some time together!

We had so much fun too and really enjoyed the time with the boys. I think it's easier to enjoy the plays when it's 100 degrees though as opposed to 42 degrees. Remember how much fun we had and we will do it again next year.
