St George

Last week I looked up the forecast for Memorial Day weekend and once again, it was cold. So, when I looked up the weather in St. George, I couldn't stop my little fingers from booking a hotel with a pool and a bed where it was going to be sunny and warm. I'm not too familiar with St. George but Jared loves it so he showed me the sights...

some "sand dunes" (the "dunes" turned out to be more of a sandy plateau)




The Volcano cave tube things.






Jared saw a sign that said "Ostrich eggs for sale" and when we stopped he couldn't hold back from buying a $15.00 Ostrich egg. His excuse was "it's like the equivalent to 20 regular eggs." I don't know the last time I bought a dozen eggs for $7.00 and thought it was a good deal but at least we have a huge egg in our fridge that we don't know how to eat.






I think Annie looks a lot like Jackson did when he was this age.


Ahhhh, fun it the sun. We actually happened to go down the same time as our friends the Stoddards and we were able to meet up with them and splash around in their pool. The short trip was a perfect little getaway!
