St. George getaway.

Lex found this fun place in St. George ("The Beach Front"), texted everyone to see who wanted in, and booked it. It was an amazing house, and the perfect time of year to get away for some {man-made} beach time, pool time, and sunshine. Just what we all needed! 

Primarily a pictorial :-)

Washing all that sand off... definitely not the fine, soft sand of Santa Rosa Beach haha.

That evening we headed to the Dino park.

Little Billy found some time to take a nap. It IS a vacation, after all.

I think the guys went golfing (or Top Golf?) and some of the girls {with a whole lot o' kids} found some shave ice. Wondering how it seems to work like that so often ;-)

Shout out to Austin for catching this moment ^^^

We had a game night or two...

We went to the Children's Museum. The kids LOVED it.

Check out day.

It's always so sad to say goodbye to a great gathering place.

We stopped to hike around Pioneer Park before the long drive home. We have been to St. George many times and never knew this fun hiking area was so close. The temps were perfect that day (probably couldn't say that in the heat of the summer).

The land and the sky were breathtaking.

Take me back.

Easter.

Little Billy flies to CO fairly frequently, so he took V and NJ a little Easter surprise.

I'm pretty jealous that he gets to see them more than I do!

I love those girlies ♥

Easter Sunday

April 17

We've had these bunny ears FOR YEARS. I have a picture somewhere of Britt as an early teen in them. I couldn't pass up snapping a few of her girls in them.

Little Billy had some fun with the bunny ears too.

I don't know how he gets B-elle to smile like that!

Mi mamita made this darling fruit tray. I had no idea she had so much creativity just waiting to explode for our Easter feast ;-)

I want a house with a crowded table ♥

After dinner we had an egg hunt for the grands that were here. Yes, it was a bit overboard, and yes, it was probably their 3rd or 4th egg hunt for the year, but a Gigi's gotta do what a Gigi's gotta do.

I couldn't resist these pics with the sunbeams.

Emmett decided he was only going to pick up blue eggs. I think Scarlett and Ellis came away with the biggest haul.

These are the best of times.
