St. George / Spring Break
We had a week of vacation this year during the kids spring break!
We went to St. George on Monday and didn’t come home until Sunday! It was a ton of fun!
An hour and a half into the trip we picked up the Falabella kids and let their parents get towed back and figure out what to do with a broken van! 2nd road trip (already) that we’ve had a FULL 12 passenger van 🙂 On Monday we got to stay at the new Condo! We ate McDonald’s and watched the NCAA basketball championship game.
TUESDAY – we swam and then swam some more!! My kids were so excited. They loved the pool. I had fun swimming with them and trying to help them learn how to swim.
WEDNESDAY we went on a hike to the Lava Tubes. We found some neat caves. The hike wasn’t too far but we did not come prepared… I honestly came prepared to be 8 months pregnant and sit around by the pool BUT… the cousins had some fun things planned so we had to go check them out. I’m glad we did. We ended our hikes a little earlier than most but the kids did pretty well.
THURSDAY – we hiked again! Millie loved the cold water and thought she was big enough to walk!! All of our kids jumped in the cold water.
FRIDAY – my favorite day, we went down to the river and let the kids play and dig and explore. The older people played water baseball all day and the pregnant lady sat on the beach, counting kids and enjoying the weather.
SATURDAY – last day of vacation! Play ground, pool, and BBQ. Packer learned to survive in the deep end of the pool. I’m not convinced that he was fully swimming but he was doing really well. Cali is close also. Ray and Rose learned to trust their life jackets and we just had fun.
SUNDAY – after church we headed for home. All of the kids chilled out with their tablets. I slept.
The Spring Break St. George trip is always one of our favorites. We love being with family and we love all of the ‘summer time activities’ when it’s still spring.
