Mini Vacation

Jason had some training in St. George all of last week.  At the last minute I decided to pull the girls' out of school and go down with him for a couple days.  We had such a good time!!!  We were able to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa Robinson on the way down and the way back home.  While we were in St. George I ran into Janielle Anderson Ohlson who lives in St. George.  We went hiking the next day with her and her familiy.  It was so fun!  Thanks Janielle!!!!  Later that day I let the kids swim in the outside/heated pool.  I didn't get in but they sure had a good time.  After Jason got out of training we went bowling with Aunt Susan.  We love to spend time with her, the kids adore her!  We needed that mini vacation.  It's good for me to remember to have fun with the kids and not be "mommy" all the time!!!!!

Erick and LuLu holding hands, it was so cute!
Aubree at the entrance of some indian (?) cave that was way cool!


The kids loved this bridge.  Aubree was a little scared to cross it because it was over a ravine, but Alexa just ran across.  Erick was ok but had to hold on.

After Aubree would throw the ball she would back up with her hands like this watching to see how many pins she knocked over.

This was Alexa throwing the ball and then her reaction to her STRIKE!!~!!


Erick was hilarious.  He would lay down and watch the ball take FOREVER to get to the pins.  One time it hit the pins and started rolling back up the lane to us!!!  We were laughing so hard!
We love you Susan!!!!!!

I love going to St. George. I just took my kids last month for a few days. The "red mountain" as James calls it is my kid's favorite. Oh, and that's the old scout cave. Definitely a favorite place to see. Glad you were able to get away for a few days. :)

St. George is fun especially in the middle of winter. It looks like you did the St. George narrows, at least that's what we always called it. Your kids look great. We're glad things are going well for you. We won't hold a grudge that you didn't visit while you were in town! I guess we should visit you in Mapleton too huh?
