Spring Break 2014

It is that time of year again.  Time to ditch the winter slopes and head to the warm red hills of St. George.  We headed out the evening of April 3rd and we arrived late morning on April 4th.  We made our best time yet.  We were rocking the night driving.  We love the 80 mph speed limit in Utah and the kids love waking up in Utah. Sounds crazy but it works for us.  Kevin drove the majority of the way, but I spelled him once in the middle of the night. 

We didn't waste any time hitting the mountain bike trails once we got to the house.  Happy Birthday to me!  A fun trail ride with family in warm St. George.  B-days don't get much better than that if you ask me.  After the biking we went out to Craig and Chyleen's rental house and swam in their 80 degree pool.  We all went to Brick Oven for some delish pizza and I had to be wheeled out!  I love me some Brick Oven.  What a great Birthday!!!!

We got up again and did it all the next day!  Minus the driving.  Mountain biking included Amber and Jen this morning which was a fun twist.  We went on the Bear Claw Poppy trail and made it back in time to listen to General Conference.  Between sessions we went to Snow Canyon for a picnic and to let the kids play on the sand dunes.  Then it was more conference, more swimming at Craig and Chyleen's pool and then the boys headed off to the priesthood session.  We had birthday cake and ice-cream to celebrate all the B-days within a 2 week period.  Being able to spend time with Craig's family was an extra fun bonus to our St. George trip.
