Easter in SG

We went down South to some warmer weather for Easter. It was perfect. I almost went into a severe depression when I came back to a huge snow storm on Monday. I am still cursing the snow.

Anyways, on to the fun times in good old St. George. Of course the favorite activity is swimming:
And my kids LOVE their cousins (and aunts)!

Heidi and I had planned an Easter Egg Hunt for Saturday night while the boys were at Priesthood. It was a killer hunt. Lucky kids.
These are pics of the kids waiting to go. Morgan was being so reverent while standing in line with the bucket on her head.

And off they went. Its always fun to watch kids hunting for eggs and such.


Checking out the loot. With two moms buying treats and cheap toys, the kids had a lot to check out.

On Easter morning the Easter Bunny did find my kids at Grandma Holly's. We were a little worried he wouldn't know where we were. ;)
Other highlights of the trip:
  • Shopping, which is always a great activity down there. And I actually did pretty good on not buying things...
  • Eating. I hit my favorite places. In & Out (x 2), Don Pedros (I LOVE their churros), Cafe Rio (I am not addicted to their shrimp tacos on Saturdays!). We also had 2 huge meals on Easter. Breakfast with the Jensens and Lunch with Grandma Veigel. As always, I think I gained 10 pounds.
  • Running. Although I was pretty frustrated after my Friday run. My knee acted up again and hasn't felt good since. Dang IT band.
  • Family time. Always good to be with the family and my kids can't get enough of their cousins.

Thanks to all for a great warm weekend in St George

AHHH!! I love St. George and how fun to do Easter down there. I'm so sad we missed it, especially with all the fun activities you guys did. Isn't swimming with those mattresses the best? So fun.

Looks like a good time and how fun that your kids had 2 Easter egg hunts. Next time you go down, I vote that we go too.

Ahhh. Looks heavenly as always. I'm so sorry we missed it. And I'm so jealous that you're out running. I'm DYING to be active again. I through with being fat and immobile.

Can't wait to come up on FRIDAY!

Fun to see your Easter Egg Hunt--I used to be part of one I had, now I just stay home and nurse my sore knee. Take care of your knees!!!
