Monday morning Jessica and I headed to her gym and did a killer but workout (which just stopped hurting yesterday) then headed to her apt to pack up and head down to St. George and the marvelous weather!
Our first stop was the candy store, of course! Then it was off to the splash park across the street.
We found some super fun carousels
which the kids thought was pretty fantastic.
Then we ate a picnic outside and they played in the water while we sunned our legs and enjoyed the shining sun.
Then we took a tour of Brigham Young's winter home which was actually quite fascinating. And then it was off to Jessica's favorite place in St. George.
"Swig"
This place was packed and absolutely amazing. They specialize in fun drinks--Mormon style. Jessica's favorite is a "dirty dr pepper" (dr pepper with coconut), or a "caribbean wave" (mango and strawberry in sprite), my mom got a mango diet mtn dew (which tasted like you were at the beach--it was so delicious and I even hate mtn dew).
The kids got some shaved ice and were in heaven. We ate it outside while we soaked up the sun. Afterwards we headed to the hotel. The kids thought that was one of the best parts too. We hardly ever sleep in hotels so two nights was a little bit of heaven for them.
We swam for at least 2 hours in the outdoor pool and totally wiped the kids out. They were quite happy though...see!
Showered and ready for bed. What a fun day we had!!
