St. George fun!

I have an idea, let's take a week in February and head to St. George. Why not? Our kids are not in school and there is a snow storm coming in...and that's pretty much how it happened. We decided to leave on Monday, and we were on the road that afternoon, we stayed until Saturday and had a great, relaxing getaway. Let me start by saying the weather was cold. It was hard to get outside as much as I hoped, but we managed to find plenty to keep us occupied. We went to the dinosaur tracks museum (I would not recommend this "attraction" to many), went to the park, played tennis, hiked, went to a children's museum, went swimming at the local pool, shopped at the outlets, drove to Vegas and saw some friends and had a cold day at a huge park, shopped the Vegas outlets, and watched a bunch of morning cartoons-That is how Lincoln really knew we were on vacation. On our way home, Lincoln kept asking to go back to the condo, he liked the vacation as much as we did!

 This is the only dinosaur and or bones you will see in the whole building. Lincoln kept asking where the dinosaurs were. I probably shouldn't have told him we were going to a dinosaur museum, when it was only dinosaur footprints we saw. That was harder to explain.

 The children's museum was a huge hit!

Lincoln was the pilot and wouldn't give up his captains chair to the other kids.

We finally distracted him with the chance to be a mechanic.

Oliver had more fun than it looks like. He hit his head as this shot was taken.

 Oh yes, and we went hiking. Dixie Rock was a perfect destination for our little family.

 Lincoln really wanted to climb higher and higher on this wall. I'm excited to get him hooked up to a rope and harness this summer.

 Home again, home again. Apples are always a good treat.

 Lincoln wanted to turn on the light over the sink. He took matters into his own hands and pulled this chair from the other side of the kitchen, climbed up, and turned the light on.

Traveling with Lincoln in the suitcase made for a quiet drive down south.

This kid gets around quickly now. It's hard to remember to keep all of the bathroom doors closed. And he's only taken two small tumbles down the stairs.

Hard to see, but he got a cheerio plugged in his nose. He had no idea it was there.

Time to make some cookies for Lincoln's nursery leader. He's going to miss her! Oliver just wants to see what's going on...

Thanks for the boost Dad!

Look what I can do. He's going to get good quick!
