St. George & Memorial Day

For Memorial Day weekend this year we decided it would be fun to go on a vacation just our little family! Well we don't have much money these days so we decided to do something fairly close and cheap. So we decided on St. George, we left saturday morning really early hoping that Brooke would sleep, well she didn't she is crazy she doesn't sleep in the car. But she was such a good girl, reading her books and cuddling her baby!! We got there it was windy and a little cold but we were going to make the best of it. We went to breakfast at the Bear Paw, very yummy, then we went to this little water play area ( I don't know what to call it) It looked like a miniature canyon for kids, it was so awesome, Brooke loved it we were there everyday for a couple hours each time because she loved it so much. It was nice because the water was only an inch deep, and with Brooke that is the best she loves water but she thinks she is a mermaid so she is always trying to jump in alone or dive under it is kinda scary but cute!! We just relaxed a lot it was perfect!! We spent a few hours at the pool, walked around a lot, did a little shopping, ate lots of yummy food!! The best place we ate at was Black Bear Diner it was so yummy!! Our hotel room was pretty nice, we had a king bed it was amazing!!! WE could all fit, Brooke liked sleeping with us!! It was funny when we booked the trip we didn't know that Whitney & Jordan would be down there so we met up with them once at a really cool park! Brooke and Tripp were so excited to see each other it was so cute!! On the drive home she slept for a 1/2 hour I was so proud!! Then the day after we got home we went and visited my little brother's grave and my grandparents grave. Brooke liked putting the flowers on the grave it was cute to watch her. It was so emotional for me being there just thinking of loosing Brooke and how heart broken I would be. It has always been emotional to see his grave, but now that I have my own child just imagining the pain that my mom went through! I hope I never have to know the personal pain of loosing a child. Just watching her, and all of the cute things she does. I just sat there and cried. Well enough of me here are some pictures!!!
