I really feel like St. George can rejuvenate the soul. I love going there when I was a child and I love to go there today. I finally talked Jesse into getting away for the weekend. We just went for one night but it was worth it. I also assure him that we wouldn't spend more than $150.00 bucks for EVERYTHING!!! And I did it!!! We stayed at our cheap hotel, ate our free breakfast at the Hotel, made lunches, then ate out at night. Our entertainment was Snow Canyon State Park, (6 bucks, for the day!) it's our favorite place. It is so beautiful there, we love that we can hike and play in the sand dunes and the kids have a natural play ground that is endless. We took the kids on two hikes that Jesse and I were impressed that they did and they actually enjoyed it. We played in the sand, not at the beach, but in the Sand Dunes and the kids loved it just as much. I loved digging my feet in the soft red sand. We had fun burying the kids too! We hiked to a small slot canyon that was amazing and the kids didn't want to leave. Dylan wanted to know if we could pick up our house and our street and move to St. George. I think that he might have had the winter blues like his mama. Sophie was pointing out every few feet of a pretty rock, or a desert flower, or a little bird or other creatures that she saw. She was happy just to be outside. I loved letting the SUN beat on my face and Jesse loved just being in nature, he comes alive when he hikes. We had a great weekend, I admit that it was too short but we were rejuvenated and the kids, Happy! Pictures to follow!
