St. George

Once I was done with school, Ryker and I packed our bags and headed to St. George for some fun and sun! We stayed with my cousin, Michelle, and her family. It was a much needed vacation and was so much fun! I love my cousin, we always have so much fun together and it so nice for Ryker to have boys to play with.

On Monday we did a little shopping, had some lunch, and then took the kids to a very fun splash pad with a little river and waterfalls. They loved it!
Silly boys, McCord, Carson, and Ryker
Michelle and me enjoying the sun
Ryker and me at the Washington Pool.
Ryker and Carson doing a little swimming.
Cute McCord in his swimming goggles! He had a great time "diving!"
The whole gang hiking at Dixie Rock.
This was a great place to hike with the kids. It wasn't a difficult hike, but was adventurous for the boys. They felt like they were rock climbers!
Carson wanted his picture taken everywhere. He was a great hiker.
Ryker and me
Doing a little rock climbing... Impressive, huh?!

(Notice the matching Spiderman shirts Michelle bought them. They lit up and the boys loved them!)
Cute Baylee, little Miss Independent did not want to be carried. She wanted to hike on her own!
Best Buds!
Ryker and McCord share the same birthday and are best friends (most of the time!)
The boys played "Cabin" for hours and hours while we were there. They hooked all the trucks and trailers up and had four wheelers and tents. They all played so nicely together and we only a had few fights. It was wonderful!! Ryker is lucky to have such fun cousins!
It was tough to come home from St. George. We had so much fun visiting my cousin and her family. I'm tempted to move there so we can play all the time!
Thanks for a fun time guys!!

So fun! St. George is one of our favorite places to go. Where is the splash pad? We are always looking for new things to do there. By the way, your outfit was too cute to be rock climbing in.

How did you manage to have kids on the same day?! Are they the same age too? How fun!
