St. George Trip

We were able to head to St. George last weekend for a fun get-together with Micah's side of the family. Now that we have moved away we don't have many opportunities to have ALL of us together at the same time. We were only missing one of Micah's brothers, but everyone else was there.. It was totally worth the trip to just let our kids play with their cousins and feel like they were having a big sleepover. I think one of the things my kids miss most about not living in Utah is being with their cousins. It's a unique friendship that doesn't matter if they are different ages, or have different interests. They just love each other.

We spent part of Saturday afternoon at Pioneer Park which was beautiful. The kids loved being able to climb all over the beautiful red rocks. For some reason Aliza was being camera shy and would duck every time a camera was in sight.

I didn't even attempt to make it through this tight squeeze. Of course the kids had no hesitation in climbing all the way to the top.

This is Avery climbing with her Gramps. It's funny how being up high doesn't even phase these kids. They have no fear.

It was tricky, but we did try and squeeze in a quick photo of all the grandkids. Twelve grandkids in all with one on the way. It's very hard to get all of them to sit still long enough to take a picture, but we got it. The weekend flew by way too fast so hopefully we will see everyone again sometime soon.

Oh, I think I've been there before. You don't really forget that squeeze through place. I don't think I went through it either! Scary. I like being the picture person. :)
