Springy Break

Thank goodness for Dad and Mom's place in St. George. Without it we would probably never vacation! So of course that is where we spent out spring break. The weather was FABULOUS and even though Jason still had to work most of the days on his computer we still had a GREAT time.




We especially love going to St. George now that Darren lives there. He has organized an open mic poetry reading once a week at a cafe in town. Since we were in town Graham and I decided to drop by and check it out.
I love hearing Darren read his poetry and Graham loved helping set up and take down the microphone and speakers. They also had these yummy cupcakes there. We had six cupcakes and since we wanted to try them all we cut them into fourths. We kept taste testing the cupcakes until there were only 2 quarter pieces left (for Graham and Jonah). OOPS! Jason and I had just consumed 3 cupcakes each in our attempt to just "taste" each one.


We played quite a bit of basketball at a nearby park and Graham was excited because he got a new ball since his other one poppped.

The weather was super nice on Friday and we had a picnic at the park and played around. The splash pad water was on so Jonah gave it a try but was pretty cold after. He and Darren tried laying on the cement to see if he could get warmed up.


On our last day we went to the water fountain to take some pictures. Beck only wanted his bottle and then the battery on our camera died so this was all we got. It was soooooo nice to get away and soooooo nice to come home!

I love St. George - glad you got to enjoy it - and we have also enjoyed the use of my parent's place down there:)

I don't know what we would do without that place either. Looks like a good time.
