St. George!


Once upon a time in a small, smelly portable I was sitting during my prep period wanting to leave the snowy, cold weather. It's at that moment that I called my sister and we decided we wanted to get away. After calls to my parents and other sisters we figured out a great plan. Head to St. George. This was over Valentine's weekend so why not make it more special and surprise Daron with this exciting adventure. So for a week or so my family and I put the details in order without the husbands advice. We found a house to rent (which included a pool and hot tub), signed the boys up for a tee time for golfing and got substitutes to teach our Sunday school class. Wahoo all ready to go. Except...I didn't know what clothes Daron would want in St. George, or how to get golf clubs in the car without him finding out, or how to get him to take a day off of work. Humm...so I decided to tell him the day before we left. That way he could have some excitement to look forward to. He loved it!

This is the house we stayed in...very nice..and for sale if you have an extra $350,000

How fun! We're in the market for a get-away, too! Maybe in a few weeks... St. George and Vegas!

What a crummy thing to say, I know, but we had some plans fall through this last weekend and I almost gave you two a call so that we could do something fun. It was 6:00 on a Saturday night so I figured it would have been very late notice. I should've gone for it anyway. Hope life is good! You've got one term of your first year left, what a woman you are!
