We were excited to go on our Spring Break trip. We decided to go to St. George. We resevered a condo for 1 week. The only thing I was not looking forward to was the drive to St. George. We decided to break it up and drive to Nikki's on Friday night then head to St. George Saturday morning. The kids actually did so good! The drive wasn't that bad at all! The condo was so nice. It had to 2 rooms so it makes it so comfortable for 7 people. We did so much swimming, hiking, relaxing, and hanging out with our family and friends. Jason and Gini moved there last year so we were excited to be able to see their nice new house and just to see them all. We had such a great time the whole week.
Madelyn loved the kiddie pool. She stayed in for hours. She is funny because she is not daring like our other 2 girls. She just holds onto the sides of the pool and walks around.
Jagger didn't like the pool, because it was too cold. He did like the hot tub, becasue he is used to ours at home. He looks so cute in his swimming suit.
We went to the St. George temple Sunday eveing. It is such a beautiful temple. My kids lovedbeing around the temple. Madelyn wanted to go in the temple so she could see Jesus.
The swimming pool at the condo. The girls really think this was the pool on High School Musical!
Mallory has decided she wants to get married in the St. George temple so she can walk down the steep steps in her wedding dress.
Madelyn picked the flowers. When I told her not to pick the flowers, she told me they are for Jesus.
Jake was talking to his brother on the phone most of the time we were at the temple.
I love how Jake is still on the phone, but just put it down for the one picture! Ha!
We went to church with Jason and Gini's family.
Madelyn really wanted to ride the donkey.
Jake and Jason roped several times the week we were there.
Jake, Jace and Jason went golfing together too.
The Wray family also came to St. George. They invited us over for lunch and we love hanging out with them.
St. George is a beautiful temple, so bright white!
Madelyn is such a diva.
Jace loved hiking. We took the whole day and went to different places to walk and hike. The kids all loved the red rock.
Mckenna climbed up high onto the rock.
Jake carved on the rock, "Jake + Megan". Jace carved, "Erickson's rule."
This was a really cool spot that pioneers had carved in the rock. You had to hike straight up this steep red rock. Jace, Mallory and Jake were the only ones that made it that high.
After hiking we went Dickeys, which is our kids favorite restraunt. They like the pickles and free ice cream.
We drove home on my birthday. 8 hours in the car with 5 kids is not the way to spend your birthday:) When we arrived home, Marie, Meggan and Mom had decorated our house with cute chair covers and all kinds of presents. I had just got done working out in the picture so I look a little scarey and sweaty.
