Easter in St. George

For our Easter celebration this year, we loaded up the van with all the kids and all the gear and headed to St. George. We were joined by H's brother Mike and his wife Renee and their three daughters - Pascale, Brielle and Noelle. We left first thing on Friday morning and arrived just after noon at the Ramada Inn by the Outlets. We unpacked and then headed for the pool. The kids loved it. The weather was good for the weekend and it was nice to feel the sun. Some of the highlights from the weekend included good vietnamese food with flying chopsticks from Zack, late nights, dinosaur tracks at Johnson Farm, picnic and easter egg hunt at Worthen Park, more swimming, lots of outlet shopping for me and Renee, back to the park with Cafe Rio for dinner and then a wonderful Easter morning. It was a lot of work for the moms and dads but the kids had a fabulous time!

Isabella with her cousins Brielle and Pascale at the Vietnamese restaurant.





We had lots of fun at the Dinosaur Tracks Museum at Johnson Farm. They have a short movie and then you get to walk through and look at the tracks. Some you can even touch. They have coloring and activities at the end. The kids loved it.





We had a picnic and Easter egg hunt at Worthin Park and the kids had a great time. We ended up spending a lot of time at this park because they have a great playset for big kids and a great one for little kids too. Zack discovered Twizzlers.






We got take out from Cafe Rio for dinner and went back to the park. Izzy loved spending time with her cousins and having Dad help out on the hard parts of the playset. Nick and Zack had a ball playing on the playset.



Easter morning we woke up to find that the Easter Bunny found us even though we weren't at home. Fun toys and lots of chocolate!




Here are Zack, Nick and Isabella in their Easter outfits. All attempts at getting a group photo failed. Oh well - Happy Easter!
