We just took a quick trip to St. George and had a nice relaxing getaway. Josh and I had a few days off of work so we packed the kids up on Tuesday night and headed down for a few days. Our friend Kilee got it worked out to stay in her mom's vacation house down there so we had a great place to stay while we were there. Here are the highlights of our trip.
We took a walk around the temple and visitor's center. It's been a while since I've spent time at that temple and it was really nice to have the day to be there.
Josh taught the girls all about the flowers there called Snap Dragons.
They were very interested that the flowers open up likes dragons' mouths. 
Then we made a quick stop at Brigham Young's house. I have never been and it was interesting to see. We didn't last long with the 3 crazy kiddos, but the part we saw was pretty cool.
I love this cool wrap around porch.
It wasn't quite warm enough to swim at the outdoor pool but we did find this cool indoor pool close to where we were staying. The kids all had a blast swimming and the girls were crazy sliding down the indoor slide. 
We had plenty of movies and relaxing time. The girls love movie nights because it usually includes popcorn and treats. 
We also went out to eat a few times - of course Olive Garden was one of our stops. 
The last day we took a hike and had a fun time exploring in the red dirt and rocks.
The kids loved being outside and getting dirty. It was a beautiful day too - perfect weather for a hike. 
Overall we had a great trip and relaxing few days. Thanks to Josh for taking a few days off to spend with us and to Kilee's mom for letting us crash in her beautiful home! Can't wait to go back!
