St. George-- Spring Break!!!


I have a million more pictures and stories... But a quick version from my phone Picts; 

The Wednesday before Spring Break week... We were all getting so antsy and the babies were so cute just standing looking out the window.


On Thursday a huge storm came... And we went South!! On the drive we stopped and stretched our legs!



This girl is so dang cute!


After driving through every kind of weather possible- we finally made it! My sweet grandpa swooped Hannah the moment we pulled up to show her all his pretty flowers and the neighbors dog. I so love him!


On Friday we went to Gunlock Reservoir and went kayaking! My mom got 2 kid kayaks and the kids did awesome!


On Friday night I couldn't believe how much laundry we already had!


On Saturday we got to my cousin, Mckenzie's, baptism. She is 12, and my grandpa baptized her. My favorite part was right after she got baptized my grandpa just looked through the glass at all of the little kids looking at him. It was so prescious!

That night the babies had a blast turning my grandparents tv tables upside down to become a stage!


On Sunday we got to go to her great confirmation and spend time with more family. So wonderful!

On Monday, Trevor took the boys fishing in the morning while I packed and babies napped. My Uncle Brett was so sweet and spent so much quality time playing with the boys. Here he's writing Zach's name on the window with his toe!!!



One of the things I did right for the road trip itself... Was to make large quantities of gluten free trail mix. Then I bought mini paper cups to pass it back to each of the kids! It worked great!


You can always tell it's the drive home because everyone's so worn out!


It was the best surprise ever that there was a Costa Vida in Filmore! It sounds silly, but never having the option to get food somewhere besides your trunk, gets exhausting! We don't ever have the option of even getting a hotdog at the gas station or some fries to ride us all over.... We were so excited to not eat peanut butter tortillas for another meal!


I think this was my best trip to see my family since I've been married! It's always so great to be around all of those that have loved and supported you your whole life! I am one lucky girl!
