Our St. George trip was planned because my Grandpas was getting married, but we decided to all go down early to enjoy some fun together. We drove down and met my family at a park in St. George and had a picnic lunch and then had an easter egg hunt. The kids did great, but there was also fun for the big kids. My family got these great eggs filled when confetti. We had a grand time breaking the eggs on each other, I even got my dad right on the top of the head! We also figured out they would break great when hit with the boys baseball bats.
Our next stop was a great hike just outside of St. George off the Leeds exit, called Red Cliffs. The hike was about a mile, and so beautiful with multiple waterfalls and amazing little canyon. It was perfect for the kids and they loved every minute of it. Eliza was the one who suprised me, she walked almost the entire way. She had her walking stick and just kept going, not wanting to be held by anyone. On the way back down, when she was getting tired, she would just sit and play with dirt or rocks until she was ready to go again. Nicole was amazing and hiked the whole way with Isabelle on her back, who was really happy the whole time.
We headed back into St. George and let the kids play at the river water park. Eliza has no fear of anything and was running around having a great time, but keeping Mike and I busy trying to keep track of her. We then went and had a yummy mexican dinner, where all the kids were going wild, so I'm sure that restaurant was glad when we left. My boss let us use his condo to stay in St. George, which was so wonderful. It was a huge place and the kids got their own bedrooms, and actually slept really well!
