St. George 2012

I have been a HORRIBLE blogger lately.. but I have great excuses lol!

We went to St George again this year and were smarter about the time we went.  Last year we visited my grandparents in August, a.k.a the hottest time EVER!! So this year we went in April.. much more enjoyable! We were still able to wear shorts and it did get to 90 degrees, but nothing like the 110 last year haha. As usual, my grandparents spoiled us rotten!  I didnt have to clean, cook, grocery shop, do homework, and I was able to take a shower and get ready without having to entertain Harper, or keep an eye on Kinsey (those of you without kids, ENJOY getting ready while you can!! ha).  Kinsey warmed right up and made herself at home very quickly!  Harper of course was just happy and content with everything, nothing new ;).  I miss my grandparents so much and wish we lived closer so we could see each other more.. But it def makes the time with them extra special when we do see them!  Both girls did AMAZING on the drive there and back!! On the way there we stopped once so I could feed Harper and were back on the road 20 min later, then on the way home, we made it to American Fork before Harper was screaming to be fed lol. I was so proud of them!

stunna shades!

silly fam ;)

Harper just content..

Of course, Kinsey had to play in the water and cool off!  She is a little fish!

So.. We didnt even know these girls.. But Kinsey just walked right over and sat down next to them and made some new friends :)

Miss Harps and I

This is my FAVORITE pic!!!

getting into Grandma and Grandpas desk

Ok, Whoever says Grandmas are old and boring and dont know how to have fun havent met my grandma! Holy smokes! My Grandma is a dare devil and always up for an adventure! She talked us into doing a zip line and I will admit.. I was so nervous! Brandon and I even made her go first before we would jump off LOL nice grandkids right!?  


All 3 of us :)

Me and my dare devil grandma!


Grandpa and his tired girls!

having a BBQ!

It was hot and Harper LOVES being naked.. so why not!? haha


getting ready to get into the "warm" tub.  My grandparents  turned down the heat so the girls could get in :)



Bad pic of me but isnt Harper just so dang cute!!!!

We had to visit the river! Kinsey had so much fun here last year and she had even more fun this year!

Harper didnt like the cold water.. but LOVES the sunshine and watching  Big sis play  :)






yea, it was cold!

Kinsey chasing around Carley

Poor Grandpa got warn out every day we were there.. Kinsey wouldnt let him sit down haha

RELAXIN!




bahaha this is how we found Kinsey sleeping one night when we went to bed..

We took advantage of having a babysitter for Harper and spent a lot of one-on-one time with Kinsey.  I dont think my Grandparents minded spending that one-on-one with Harper either :)

Brandon acted like total kids on this playground! HA










SWIMMIN'


I got to take Kinsey down the slide this year!! I was pregnant with Harper last year and totally bummed I couldn't go down the slide.. I even went down by myself a couple times LOL


Kinsey feeding Dad and making sure he ate his salad!

Grandma and Harps

Brandons face the night before we headed home.. JK lol


We tried so hard to get a pic of us girl.. but Kinsey would not cooperate!!

We were so sad to leave and head home.. It is ALWAYS a good time when we are with my grandparents.  We laughed so much and had lots of fun memories!  I think we need to visit twice a year instead of just once ;)  Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for catering to all of our needs and for even watching the girls whenever you could so Brandon and I could to on a date and spend time together!  WE LOVE YOU!!!
