Memorial Weekend Down in Dixie

I was so excited for the long weekend down at the condo. Not only were we in for a few days in amazingly warm weather, but we had lots of friends to meet up with while we were there. We went down with Cheri and Cody and my parents and Jon. The Ross' and Bonds came down as well and all of us had  a great time.
We hiked, swam, played some tennis, and had a great evening making s'mores. Yep, we packed it all in and it was a BLAST for the kids and parents-such a bonus!
First things first, we started the weekend with a hike in Leeds. It was already drying up, but a fun hike nonetheless. The kids loved finding lizards, crawling through the "caves," and playing in the sand at the top.
Uncle Jon makes everything more fun!





Everyone came over for gourmet s'mores, thank you Ross' for the awesome candy bar idea, and lots of talking, playing, and hanging out...
These girls, could they be any cuter?
 
These guys get along so great...so nice for us wives!
Such beauties!
And here are the wives...love them!
The s'mores were a big hit and the chiminea worked perfectly!
The kids were really into it!
Lots of swimming this trip-just the way we like it!
These two are getting to be great friends rather than frenemies. Let's hope we stick to the hand holding rather than the name calling!
Karoline has always been my little fish. She started jumping in the pool before she was two and yet she was requesting me to catch her this trip. I was happy to oblige-just look at that face!
Whoever invented these floaters for babies is a genius. Clara loves hanging out and the kids love taking her for "rides."
Once Karoline started jumping in, the others had to join in on the fun...

All of the kids love using the snorkel and mask. Roman makes that mask look good!
The girls were looking oh too adorable in their matching suits:
Uncle Jon continued to live up to his favorite uncle name as he played with Clara in the water...she was a fan...

And no trip to St. George would be complete without a trip to Swig!
Ok, now we can go home.
