St. George is awesome. Enough Said. We had a lot of fun there with my parents over the holiday. We also celebrated my Dad's birthday while we were there. The girls went to the Dollar Store and got to pick out things that reminded them of Grandpa. They picked a backscratcher, Cheetos, a puzzle, a mind game, binoculars and Hot Tamales. They were so excited to give him his presents while we ate dinner at Pizza Factory.
We also enjoyed some leisurely pool time. The girls' favorite thing to do is ride the plasma cars around the pool. Their toes were all cut and bloody by the end of each day, but they didn't care...they rode on!
The girls LOVE when I sew them things. I actually like doing it for them because they really do appreciate it and think it's special. As a mom, those are the moments that mean the most. Anyway, they've been asking me to make them a dress, so I took the easy, fast route and made them some patriotic skirts while we were there. They love them....so now we're all happy :)
We went to the Visitor's Center on Sunday afternoon and went on the little tour. The missionary told the girls' to touch the Statue of Christ and I thought this was a sweet little picture. Then we took some others just for fun.
The girls painted bird houses one night.
We roasted Marshmallows!
And played in the playroom.
And threw rocks....because Daddy is getting nice and good at throwing heavy things as a competitor in this weekends Highland Games! (Don't worry, there will be a post on that).
And on our way out, we stopped at Sandhallow for a little boating adventure.
Although we weren't in town to visit the graves of our loved oned that have passed away, we definitely think about our Grandparents, and Bryce and Robert all the time. Oh man....even typing their names makes me emotional. We miss these guys....we miss them so much. They were exceptional, extraordinary, full of life and full of love and they'll NEVER EVER be forgotten.
