Memorial Day Trip to St. George

 For Memorial day this year we took a quick trip up to St. George to see Grandma and Grandpa.  The kids swam in the pool (big surprise there), and played with toys.  Elisa hung out (or rather, hung on) Grandpa and Gabe obsessed over the Nintendo games while Ian obsessed over the Mr. Potato Heads. Erik and I went out for dessert to get some sugar cookies.  My dad came down from Cedar to see us and we went out to eat at a Mexican grill restaurant.  The food was good, although a little bit too greasy. We also visited Dixie narrows for a bit.

The kids' main activity: swimming!

Family and food at Angelica's Mexican Grill. I think we (at least most of us) approved of this restaurant.

Cuties!
Erik, Gabe, and Elisa went through the narrow opening in the rocks.  I didn't go in too far because of the recent vein procedure I had.

Grandpa Ron bought the kids a snow cone from the ice cream truck

On our way out of town, we stopped by a wood-fired pizza place called Riggattis Pizza.  It was good, expect the peach dessert pizza was undercooked.  Biting into raw dough is very unappetizing, which is too bad because it would have been a really yummy dessert pizza had it been cooked properly.
Erik and I shared a pizza while the kids got their own (pepperoni) pizza all to themselves.

  1. It's nice that they at least slept on the trip. Great pictures in the narrows! Good cookies and cute comparison pictures.
