St George!

We came home from Redfish for a quick night and then took off to St George for our family Summer trip!  Josh found a deal for Tuacahn tickets - BOGO free! So we saw TWO shows!  Josh took me at the beginning of June to see The Little Mermaid and When You Wish, and I loved them SO much!  I was super excited when we were able to take the kids to both of them!  One of the nights was on the 4th of July, so they had a great patriotic firework show!  I teared up! It was neat to be there in that canyon, with God's beautiful world all around us, celebrating our freedoms in this great nation.  My heart swelled to be there with my family.  The music was loud, and the firework booms echoed off the canyon walls.  What a great night!  








We went to hike around Zions while we were there!  We brought water shoes and were prepared to hike up the Narrows a bit!  What a great adventure that was!  We can't wait to go back and do it again and go farther!  Our goal is to do the whole thing some time!
It was SO crowded!  It was a nice hot day, so the water felt SO good!  


























This is one of my favorite pictures from the trip!  This was seriously the BEST adventure!  My kids had so much fun!  Outside + water + family = happiness.

We played and floated around in this deep spot for a while!





Shuttle ride back!  

Night two!  
Saturday hike to Scout Cave!  Oh it was SO hot!  Look at all our pink cheeks! 










Hotel swimming!
