St. George Family Vacation

We had such a fun vacation! This is the backyard of the house we rented in St. George. The landscaping is amazing, complete with a pool, waterfall, hot tub, fire pit, swing set, playhouse, and plenty of room for a wiffle ball game. We were there for a family reunion on Ryan's side of the family...and also to celebrate his grandparents 60th wedding anniversary!
Ashby is our little dare devil. She loved to jump off the rocks to Mommy or Daddy. She even got up the nerve to jump off from the waterfall to Mom with no floaties on.

Dalton would move himself all around the pool in this little float tube. We were all pretty amazed. He loved swimming in the water.The kids had so much fun swimming everyday. Ashby learned "to swim with nothing on" as she would say. Meaning: with no floating devices. She was pretty excited about her new accomplishment.

The last day of our trip we roasted marshmallows for s'mores over the fire pit. The kids loved it.
On our vacation we took the kids to a indoor Play Place that had race cars, mini golf, etc. Asbhy had so much fun on the race cars!
We had a family reunion at Woods Ranch. We had a yummy dutch oven lunch and the kids were able to try a little fishing too. Ryan was the only one who caught anything....after all the kids had given up and left.

The adults were able to attend a musical Les Miserables at Tuacahn; a Theater set in Snow Canyon as a back drop for the stage. It was so incredible!

That backyard is probably the most beautiful I've ever seen! How cool! And seeing Les Miserables- how neat!
