Well we didn't want to sit home over spring break, so we headed south to St. George. We hurry and booked a condo a few weeks before and drove down on a Thursday night. Bodie and Rafe got car sick on the way down and Rafe through up twice. Luckily in a cup and a garbage can. Then he was fine.
Once we got there for the weekend we did some food shopping, hiked around, swam in the pool and hot tub, drove a little off-road in the red rock/sand, and we hit up a fun zone place and rode speed cars and played arcades, ate out at different restaurants, ate way too much ice cream and played at a fun new park. We really enjoyed the sun, and warmth and being away. The boys loved the condo we stayed at.
And a tiring saga we had to deal with was Bodie. He was getting over a cold so he had a little cough but that was the least of the problems. He was up many many times (10 or something) a night complaining of tummy aches or that he is going to throw up. I think he was confused with what he was feeling. He said the only thing that made him feel better was a hot shower. So 2-3 times a night I would be sitting with him hovered over the toilet or while he stood in the shower. I was so tired the whole time. We got him some Pepto Bismol to help his tummy. It kinda worked. ** after we came home we took him to the Dr. a little while later and discovered he has some kind of acid reflux type stuff that is effecting the lining of his stomach and causes pain and nausea. He had been suffering for several months and it was just getting worse. He's on medicine now, hopefully it helps take care of it. Rafe might have the same issue? We'll see.
Anyways... back to Easter break.
On Saturday we dyed Easter eggs. That was enjoyed by some and some were being silly and one was in a bad mood. Can you tell in the pictures who was not a happy camper? Ha!
We enjoyed doing the crack while in St. George. Rafe was brave and did it with us this time. Greg doesn't fit so he took pictures.
Easter morning! We had to wake up some of the boys so we could find the baskets and get a move on our morning. There's the boys wandering around looking for eggs and baskets upstairs and downstairs and all over.
Bodie found his in the dryer in the hall. Rafe looked multiple times in the pantry and didn't see his until we gave him some major hints to look again, Jax finally found his in the master bedroom behind a chair, and Creed's was in the upstairs bathroom closet. And then lots of eggs filled with candy were hidden all over. What a great Easter bunny!
All the loot and munching during conference while we packed to head home. I am super sad our camera has every picture blurry. I don't know the setting or it needs to be repaired?
On our way out of town driving home we stopped at Kolob Canyon, part of Zion's Natl Park. It was so pretty. We did a quick over-look view hike/walk and took some pics on our way back out. We had to keep on the road to make it to Alpine for Easter dinner with Greg's family.
Thumbs up for a great little vacation and the pretty canyon. And I tell ya, talk about an incredible view out our car mirrors!
