St. George

Posted on Wednesday, April 9, 2014

This post is long overdue, but the pictures are so cute I had to share!  Basically, I am just proud of my self for blogging, this little blog is so neglected ,whoops!

During Jason's spring break we decided to join the crowds in sunny St. George for a one night get away.  We are really good at these one-night, mini road trips, it seems like that is the only kind of vacations we go on, fun and exhausting.

I love St. George. It is so amazingly different from northern Utah, I love the red rocks and the hot dry air.  My color blind husband may not agree with me about the red rocks though ;)

Let me break down our trip for you; wake up early and drive to St. George, eat lunch at a really good hippie cafe which you would never guess existed in St. George, check into the hotel, take Hudson to a Park to climb on the rocks and get dirty, take Hudson to the Children's museum, swim in hot tub, sleep, wake up, hike Johnson's Arch, stuff our selves on massive amounts of food at Black Bear Diner, drive a tired and cranky toddler home in time for dinner.

We are learning more and more as parents that vacations are no longer a time for us to relax, they are a time for us to think off everything we can to entertain our toddler, which is still pretty fun.

Here is Hudson on his very first hike, he loved it!  Unfortunately we forgot our baby carrier and he insisted on walking almost the whole way, it took us two hours to hike two miles, awesome.


He was so excited to wear those sunglasses!




He held that stick the whole mile back to the car, and stopped every ten steps to draw in the sand with it.
