I wish I were in Dixie



 In February we were lucky to take a trip down to St. George.  It just happened to be the week of Quinny's birthday, so of course we turned it into her birthday party!  Every year in late winter we get the itch to go South and we are fortunate that BS has always had work in St. George.  While we are down there we always wish that we lived there.  Of course it has something to do with how sunny and warm it is in comparison to the cold winter up here.  
Even better, my cousin Shelly and her family live down there now so we have even more reason to go down and visit.  And then there is Uncle Denny and Aunt Marcia - they live down there and we always  love to visit them.  In fact this time, Grandma Cindy rode with us so she could visit her brother Denny.
It was so great having her vacation with us!  She had to go home on Saturday (we were leaving Sunday) so she did something new: she rode a shuttle bus home!  Actually she said it was a great option because it only cost $45.00 and it was clean and she could read and sleep :)

We stayed at the Worldmark condos again (thanks Grandma) and were pleasantly surprised to find that the pool was heated!  We spent quite a bit of time at the swimming pool.

We also spent a night at Shelly's beautiful home.  They showed us a great time and we had a blast hanging out with them.  The Parade of Homes was going on so we spent a day going to the home show and seeing all of the new and wonderful ideas.  Thanks Parkinson's!

A trip to St. George is not complete without a hike or exploring of some sort.  While me and Millie were with Shane, Shelly, and Jordan at the home show, BS took the other kids and Kamryn hiking to these Anasazi ruins outside of Santa Clara.  They loved it!
  

Adventurous Sambo!
