Our St George Vacay

We went to St George last weekend for my cousins baby blessing(side note: they also wrote a childrens book, check that out on their blog too!)....David was working so I went with the kids. They did good on the drive, mostly slept and thank goodness for treats and movies! :)
Sunday was the blessing. We went to Annies parents house before church and had a great little lunch. It was so hot there i couldn't believe it, but it was a nice break from the cold. The blessing was at 4:00 and with no nap for the kids you can imagine how they were in sacrament....well maybe you can't cause I couldnt believe it either. I think it was a combo of no nap, cousin Kate and Grandma, so Tyler felt he had to show off or something, but let me just tell you that it was not pleasant! After taking him out and coming back in a few times and after running half way up the stairs to the stage to catch Kate (although no one said they saw it) I was done...I took them both out and they played outside the rest of the time. Luckily Hailey was great and thanks to all the cousins for their help!! :) Oh yeah, i forgot to say that Brittney and Dan and Kate came up like at noon on Sunday so that was nice, we got to see them for a bit. Tyler got to play with Kate...he always sees her on the pictures and always asks about her, so it was nice that they actually got to play! Brittney has some pics on her blog of them after church at Rocios house. They are two silly kids! very cute though i have to add! Check them out here.
p.s. dont mind Tylers shirt, Sandy was nice to lend it to us, its a girls shirt, but when Kate was changing, he had to too :)

Monday was another 80 degree day, so we hit the park. The kids basically just swung in the swings...they go to another world when they are on them, its funny, yeah we pushed them for about an hour and then drove around so they could take some naps. The excitement of a new place wasnt the best place for naps, so we drove and headed to snow canyon and tuachan, which both are so beautiful!!!
going down the slide

Hailey wasnt too sure about the slide......
but she sure did love the swing :)

Tyler, as usual, was loving the swings
I like where his hair is blowing in the wind ;)


Monday night we went to go see Kev in action at Karate

Yes thats a girl, but they're the same belt
check out that kick....geez...
the end, no one got hurt and Kev won 5 to 2
(he got 3 points for the one to the head)

The next day was equally as warm so we went to the little water park thing they have off main street
the kids love this place
yes the water was a bit chilly at first, but you totally got used to it
Hailey checking out the "river"
Hailey and good ol' grandma as support and Tyler

we tried to get them to look, but they were way too excited for the water
Tylers little friend...he sent him down the river a few times :)
feet, feet, feet :)
wow-ing at something :)
and pointing to the planes that passed

splash, splash and

You're going to have to show us where that fun place is, I guess I don't now where it is! I don't think you got the kids sick, they probably just got it from actually being active and leaving the house a few times. It's just a little cold, hopefully it'll blow by quickly.
