Memorial Day Weekend

I promised Marianne I would keep my blog updated while she was in Alaska, so I'd better make good on that promise.

We had a great time last weekend in St. George with the Greenwoods. The weather was awesome and we had fun activities everyday.

Katie went a nice bike ride Saturday morning, then the guys went mountain biking while I took the older kids to the pool and Katie stayed with Drew and Grace at the condo. The girls went out for some retail therapy in the afternoon and also got Vanilla Avocado Smoothies from The Orange Peel (thanks for the referral McArthur girls.)

Sunday we all went to Zion National Park and hiked to the temple of Sinawava. We saw John Heder a.k.a. Napoleon Dynamite in the line for the shuttle at Zion's. Luckily we talked Corby out of asking him for some tots, he did arrange a photo op with Katie for her nephew who is a big N.D. fan.

Monday Bud and Katie went on a mountain bike ride while Corb and I watched the kids and then we swapped and Coby, Cade and I went out. Bud and Katie both had pretty sweet wrecks, we will see if Bud will be able to compete in the Salem triathlon this weekend. I haven't been on a real bike trail since before Cade was born and I forgot how much I enjoy mountain biking! It was also so great to see Cade out there, he is awesome. I was so proud of him, he was going on things that made me more than a little nervous. It is great to be entering a time in our family that we can enjoy more activities with our kids. The rest of Monday was spent relaxing and cleaning.
