Fall Break

For Fall break we decided it was a good time to go to the St. George temple.
We left Friday afternoon after Scott got done working.
Cedar City
We met the Johnsons in Cedar City where we spent the night. All the hotels in St. George were full since there were so many things going on there.
Nothing like relaxing at the hotel after a long car ride.
That night we decided to add some excitement to our trip and take in a game of bowling.
The kids decided it should be them against the parents and the losers buy ice cream.
The kids won the first game but we decided to go for a second round. The first game was just a warm-up for us and we showed our true colors on the second game and won.
We decided we were even so no one had to buy ice cream.
We had a fun time.
Andrew couldn't resist the arcade game, the claw. He said he knew he could get the prize because the claw was in the perfect position. After the first 50 cents he had the prize in the claw but it wouldn't release it. It took a group effort to come up with 50 more cents and he got his prize. "Wanda", the witch.
Tradition carries on. Walmart and a crazy hat picture.


Scott & I even got in on the action.
St George
Saturday we got up and went to the temple.


The whole group.
Molly & Jamie in their matching dresses.

We fulfilled one of Molly's life time dreams. A picture on the Sinclair dinosaur.
There used to be one in American Fork but they got rid of it before she got a picture.
Happy Day!
  Andrew and Jamie had to try it out too.



Snow Canyon
After the temple we went to Snow Canyon. Took some hikes and enjoyed the scenery.


Andrew, the explorer


Mountain Meadow Massacre Memorial
After the canyon we stopped at the Mountain Meadows Massacre Memorial.
The pictures don't really do justice to the sight. It is more the feeling that is there.




"Are we going home yet?"
