fun in the sun in st. george

After our busy, busy week of events our office went on a short but much-needed work retreat to St. George for the weekend. We stayed with some of our generous friends and donors of AIS - the Howcrofts - their house is on the amazing Entrada Golf Course. Our whole family came down and we spent the weekend in the sun and having fun. I can't believe how HOT St. George is! My goodness. I mean, I'm all about warm weather so you can be outdoors, but St. George is so hot you end up staying indoors all day anyway. It was a little too hot for my liking. . . so I just stayed in the pool the entire time I was there. lol. Thanks AIS for a great mini vacation!


All the kids taking a break from swimming for a cold Popsicle. Don't you love Malia's swimming suit? I couldn't stop cracking up. Wayne found it at Walmart and it was perfect for our independent and overconfident swimmer. Check out the gorgeous reflection in the windows. Ah! Isn't Utah beautiful!

Kina - loved the warm weather and the water

Malia - a little scared of the cacti

Malia, Sina and Taiana - it looks like I interrupted something important by taking this picture. My bad, ladies.


Besides the pool, the other highlight for me was visiting the beautiful outdoor Tuacahn Theaters and watching the production, "Footloose". I love watching plays! It was a little long, but the company did a great job.

Some of the gang with our cute host, Claetra. She was the bomb hostess - made everyone feel like we have another grandma in St. George!

We got a chance to visit the St. George temple with our little family. It was beautiful.
