Sunny St. George

We have been so busy lately! Ryan and I went with our friends Lindsay and Devin to the Parade of Homes. It was tons of fun and we saw all of the houses. They were beautiful and it has made me super house hungry! Someday right??
And who could forget the most amazing sporting event in the whole world... The World Cup!! We have been recording it and watching the games at night. It is so fun, especially that game today! I just love soccer!
But amist all this we found time to sneak away for a weekend getaway with our good friends. We left on Thursday after work and drove down to St. George. It was perfect weather at night. The next morning we got up and went and did a session at the St. George temple. It is a beautiful temple. That afternoon was spent eating, shopping, and swimming. It was so relaxing! That night we went out to a nice dinner and headed to the Tuacahn theater. If you haven't been there, it is a fun outdoor theater up against that beautiful red rock. We saw Tarzan which was fun. The next morning we woke up and headed to Manti. We did a session in that temple, and it has probably been one of my favorites. It was pretty neat! We then layed down blankets outside, played games, and waited for the pageant to start. The little town of Manti turned into a mini fair. People were selling food, treats, and crafts from their yards. It was fun! After the pageant we made the trek home. I'm glad we got to go on a little getaway with some awesome friends. Thanks guys!
