Carousel and Splash Park

While Rori was taking finals and Grandma and Grandpa were working we kept ourselves busy. We went to the Carousel and the Splash Park in downtown St. George.

Anthony and Michael testing the waters.

We rode the horses twice. It's free if you are under 42" and with a paying adult ($1). The kids were a little amazed that there weren't seatbelts on the horses like at Disneyland. ha ha!




I changed the kids into their swim suits and let them play.















Jaileigh was the first to get cold.


Annie and Michael trying to swim.



I love this picture of Anthony and Jakob.
The random kid in the picture above walked up to Annie and shoved her. I was watching from a little ways away and started slowly walking over. She had the funniest look on her face. She was pretty shocked but quickly got over the shock and shoved him right back. He pushed her back. Then she pushed him back two times and took off running to me. I don't know where that little boys parent was but I was sure laughing.





Sweet Jake


Jaileigh and Michael


My boys.


My girls.






There was a little boy with a water gun and they all wanted him to spray them. They lined up in front of him and were all saying "spray me, spray me!"

On The Road Again

On Wednesday (4/26) we set off for Utah again. I packed the bags and loaded the car and off we went. Wednesday we stayed at Kathy and Joes in Las Vegas. Mike drove with us to Vegas and then flew home that evening. The kids had so much fun with Kathy and Joe.

Swimming Fun

We took the kids to a real swimming pool over the weekend. They had so much fun! I am going to have to take them more often. Jaileigh was the little fish! She had the most fun. Annie and Jake loved it second best,  Anthony was a little nervous but was such a trooper. He didn't want to be left behind.
Michael was a little nervous today. We are going to have to work on his water happiness a little more.

Mike and I threw all of them in the air and they loved it! They also jumped off the side and all of them would swim alone, with their puddle jumper, except Michael. That kid loved the stairs. Moms going have to start giving swim lessons!
