St. George Trip

My mom had a business trip in St. George, and we tagged along! I was a little nervous for the drive down with the kids, but they did FANTASTIC! I was so happy. We got there on Tuesday night around 9pm and got settled in and went to bed.

The next day we got up and had breakfast and then headed down to the pool. Eme was of course in HEAVEN! Her daddy has so much fun with her I am such a proud wife watching him with her. She LOVES her daddy and the way he plays with her. He throws her around like a rag doll and she loves every minute of it. Being in the pool, it was no different. She was going in circles, up and down, side to side, you name it, she did it!

Later that afternoon, Brady and my dad snuck away to get in a round of golf, and I took the kids to the room to lay them down for a nap. We went to Chilis for lunch and then back to the room. My mom got done with her meetings around 5 and we went to Walmart to find a swimming suit since I forgot to pack mine. Instead of a swimsuit (they were too expensive) we picked up some chicken and french bread for dinner. Ate dinner in the room, and took it easy for the rest of the night.

The next morning we woke up and went to breakfast, Brady and my dad got in ANOTHER round of golf (while I watched the kids again) and my mom went to meetings. My dad stayed in the room while Brady and I and the kids went and visited a cute friend of mine, Holly, that I hadn't seen since right after high school. She had twins about 5 months ago and I was dying to meet them, and see their mommy! Holly is soooo darling and her kids reflect their mommy. We got caught up on the last ten years, then it was off to dinner with the fam. We went to this yummy place called Anasazi where you basically cook your own meat on a lava rock. I had the garlic rice and carrots with mine. Later that night my parents took the kids, and Brady and I got in a nice stroll to have some "us" time.

(This is how Eme looked by the time we got home! She was awake from Cedar City to Salt Lake, and this is how she felt about it!!)

Friday morning my mom was in meetings till noon, and then we checked out and went home. I am so glad we came home on Friday because we still had the weekend to recover from "vacation". Why is "vacation" so much more work then just being home???

Thanks mom and dad for letting us tagg along to St. George, it was a nice get away!
