More from SG


After our long day in Zion we had dinner at Texas Roadhouse and then went night swimming! It's a fun little thing we hadn't done since our trip to Hawaii and the kids thought it was very exciting. We brought PJs to the pool with us so that when we were done swimming we could shower everyone off and wash hair up in the locker rooms at the clubhouse. Then we drove our car to the outskirts of Sunbrook as far as we could on the dirt hills and got out of the car to look at the brilliant night ski while listening to A Sky Full of Stars cranking from the car. It was chilly but not cold and a lovely little family moment I think I'll remember forever.

 Saturday morning we met Maggie and her 3 oldest up in Snow Canyon 
for a hike along the Butterfly Trail
 Luke and Maisy are just too little to amble up the big rocky mountains so they hung out with Maggie and me while Joseph helped the others explore.


 Luke did get to explore a very tame lava tube with everyone else.

 Pretty Livs against a perfect SG backdrop

 Later that day Joseph and I biked up and down Snow Canyon 
(hey we'd already paid the fee so we were making the most of it!)


We ended the day with a late afternoon swim and couldn't believe we were still swimming outdoors at the end of November! They had heated the pool but the air was warm as long as the sun was out.

 It was so lovely to spend 3 nights in St George this time around and soak up the lingering fall, glorious sunshine and beautiful Dixie.
