St. George

We started our trip off with a stop in St. George to visit our great friends the Bells. The took us out to Snow Canyon where we (hiking deprived Texans) got to hike the petrified dunes and sand dunes.

Alex thrives in the great out doors.

Here he is pondering the greatness of the sand dunes.

Hayley and Brooklyn enjoyed sliding down the sand hills.

(We had fun getting the sand out that night!)

One afternoon Hayley and Brooklyn decided to become fencers.

The worked for hours making masks that would 'protect' their eyes, yet could still see through, and then choreographing the perfect fight.
