Our little Vacation!

We went down Friday night so that the kids would sleep so when we woke up we were at Grandma H house. We didn't get to see Grandma a lot because she was at a conference so we don't have a lot of pictures!
We went up Snow Canyon! This is something that we have always done, every time we go down! IT was so nice to be outside in the warm weather! WE enjoyed it a lot!
Look at the blue sky with the red rock!

Dave and Sarah!
Sarah loved the hike. She loved being held and seeing everything around her!

We enjoyed the little hike, we saw little lizards and birds and all the scenery!
These nice people on the trail took a picture for us! picture above in the collage we too ourselves, it was really fun to pet into place. To bad Sarah kind of hiding.
Jonathan enjoyed getting down and running around in the rocks, while we were on our hike Jonathan learned how to say birdie and rock!
After our morning hike we went over to Red Robin for lunch. This was the first thing that Jonathan went too when we got there! We enjoyed lunch with some of Dave's old High school friends and families! We enjoyed talking and Dave especially loved his luuch!
Afterwards we went over to Brian's and played the beloved Wii! Dave would love one of these at our house (maybe when we have a more disposable income~whenever that might be) We enjoyed playing tennis, boxing, and Mario cart!
The kids enjoyed the toy closet that was right in the front room, it was so nice! I definitely would love one of these!
Sweet Sarah
That night we were able to spend sometime with Grandma! This was the first time that Jonathan has really bonded with Grandma it was great! On the way home Jonathan had a hard time leaving because he just kept crying for Grandma! We went to dinner; Jonathan and Sarah shared a kids meal and Jonathan was in heaven because it came with a ice cream sunday! It was nice to talk with Grandma and see what she has been up to, and to see how happy she is at this time in her life made Dave and I very happy!

One of the main reasons for going to St George was to support Brian and Amber on there big day with Mayelyn; we are birthday buddies! It was nice to be there for the blessing. That morning we went to church with Grandma, and Jonathan did great in nursery! It was nice for Dave and I to go to Sunday school and Relief and Priesthood since we don't get the opportunity with our calling. WE just went to sacrament in the afternoon, but Jonathan didn't understand why we weren't going to nursery. He of course had a fit, but I had to explain to him why and then he was fine. Jonathan did great at the blessing, he was sitting by one of Brian's cute nieces and Jonathan was in Heaven he even gave her a big kiss on the lips. Jonathan has no problems showing his affection, although the little girl wasn't to sure about the kiss! After we had a big barbecue at Brian, we enjoyed visiting with his family.

Coming back to Grandma's; Jonathan was out. So we decided to pack up and go. On the way out Jonathan finally woke up, and that is when he didn't understand where Grandma was!
Sarah enjoyed visiting with and being held by Grandma! It was nice to get away for a while!
