Our Escape to Warmer Weather






A couple of weeks ago, my mom and I decided we'd had enough of the cold weather and took the boys and went south to St. George for a few days. It was so nice!! We went from 45 degree to 75 degree weather in just 4 hours !!! It only made it even more clear to me that, when all is said and done with this medical school journey, I want to end up somewhere warm(St. George!!) Enough of this cold weather!!!! Thanks mom, for helping us escape for a few days. My mom had so much fun that she went again with her sister the next weekend!!!! Here are a few pictures from our trip.



A morning walk









Here is one reason I love St. George. I LOVE the red rock against the blue sky!





Of course, swimming was a big part of our stay at the hotel :)





An evening at the park(yes, they are in shorts at 7:00 at night!!)



Daxon's first taste of playing at the park by himself :)

Looks like fun!! I am like you, no way could I survive living in the winter wonderland. CA is cold enough for me. I am thinking AZ or SoCal would be more my tempo.

I love the St. George getaway! How nice, 75 degrees. I wonder how far away I'd have to go to get that temperature??

Umm. did I pass you on the road?
Where were you at. That looks like the new hospital in the background of one of your pics.
Next time you have got to go to the Santa Clara pool Very cool! Slides, frogs, fountains, tiping buckets. Also hit the Red Cliffs, EZ trails for kids that need to be in the dirt. Just don't wear white in St. G.
