St. George Visit

After a quick weekend to Rexburg to load our moving truck, Avalynn and I ventured on to St. George for a couple weeks while we waited to close on our house. I didn't tell my parents we were coming so when we showed up at their house at 2:30 am they were a little shocked! We had such a fun time just hanging out, playing with Mimi and Papa's toys, and just spending time with my parents. Avalynn loves her grandparents so 2 full weeks of undivided attention from Mimi and Papa was pure bliss for her. Here is a picture run down of things we did.

Played dress-up in mommy's old dresses

Rode the carousal downtown with Mimi



Played at the splash park

Helped Mimi and Papa set up for a wedding

Colored almost every morning

Enjoyed Papa's homemade ice cream

Went to another splash park

Went to dinner at Uncle Devin's work

Went to the fair

Rode the bike in the backyard

Went and saw Grease at Tuachan 

Went to Papa's work for ice cream...Uncle Devin was there too!

Went on lots of walks with Papa to the mailbox and park. She loved collecting rocks along the way and putting them in his cargo pockets!

Went to Shandee's baby shower

And Avalynn's favorite part was probably Mimi getting this giant pink "Pippo" for her. I don't think there is anyway we would have gotten out of Costco without it. She still sleeps with it every night and will say "Pippo, Mimi", it's pretty cute!

Thank you mom and dad for letting us take over your house for a couple weeks!

She is just soooo cute! We need to figure out a way to get together once you can travel again after your sweet baby boy arrives. The girls will have so much fun and I always have a blast with you! Maybe we could meet in the middle and do a girls trip.
