    The Crack

    No Comments

    Our family wanted to go to the crack since we hadn’t been in a while. THE KIDS LOVED IT. It was one of our favorite things that we did in St. George. All of the kids ran right through the Crack (Benji squeezed through a few parts) Ben and I made it through as well. The kids were laughing at my claustrophobia. I was fine as long as I was the only one in The Crack. Pioneer Park is really a great place to explore!

    St. George!

    No Comments

    On Wednesday we headed down to St. George for the rest of the week. Ready for SPRING BREAK! We drove straight to Freddys to start our trip with Custard!

    From there we checked in at the condo and got our swim suits on and swam until 8:30pm!

    The next day we went to the new park with the cousins. It was VERY crowded but lots of fun things for the kids to try.

    We rode the little train at the park and then came home ate lunch and swam the rest of the day! We ate with the cousins in their condo and then had a big game of volleyball. I took most of the kids to the play ground and then to our place for snacks and Moana.

    On Friday we wanted to go play in the river and recreate our river baseball game BUT the water was really high this year and not kid friendly. We then tried to go to a park with a splash pad but it was under construction. We tried another park and the splash pad was not working but we stayed anyway. We played a big game of Wiffle ball – kids verse adults. Jamie’s mom and Amandas brother were there to help us. Adults won by 1 point!

    That afternoon the kids got their swimming in and then we took pizza to the park and played our yearly adults vs kids soccer game. The Hancocks came to hang out also. The kids won by 1 point! So we went to Nielsen’s Custard…  and Udine tickled everyone.

       

    On Saturday – we played with the Hancocks and cousins. We swam again for HOURS. Then teenagers went to the movie and we went to THE CRACK to explore.

    After the crack, we all met up at Freddy’s for dinner. We enjoyed our meal and then Millie fell and split her chin open. We thought she needed stitches but the nurse and I decided that she didn’t. Michelle and Udine helped with our kids while we figured that all out and the day was over.

    On Sunday – we packed up, went to church, and then drove home on the overly packed I-15.

    Another St George in the books. We were all a little sun burnt and very tired from staying up late every night! Our kids are still little fish and LOVED it.

    Trafalga

    No Comments

    We had a free spring break day so… We had a lazy morning and I was just seeing where the day would take us. The kids eventually remembered that I had talked about Trafalga and we headed out at noon. We stayed for 4 hours and had a good time. The Roller Coaster was working for the first time ever for us! Millie road it but Ray wouldn’t. The miniature golf was under construction but we played anyway. My kids are too little for Laser Tag or too nervous to do it without an adult. Bumper boats and Go Carts weren’t working. But we did the Frog Hopper, Pirate Ship, Airplanes and Roller Coaster LOTS. Rock Climbing was also out of order! We had some money left on a card to play the mini bowling and Laser Game. Tiago was too nervous to do anything but he enjoyed  just being out and about. And it was a little chilly for the outside golf course but Ray did it anyway.
