Happy Thanksgiving

Without realizing it our family has made going to St. George a Thanksgiving tradition. I love the red rocks, palm trees, and sun. When Dave and I were first married I was worried that a boy from beautiful green PA wouldn't like the desert but I was wrong. After three Thanksgivings with my family he still loves it.

We stayed in the usual place, Las Palmas. I remember this place from my childhood because of the blue railing. We ate Thanksgiving at the condo with my grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle and cousins. That night we went swimming, another plus about St. George, we swam in an outdoor pool in November.

We went hiking in Snow Canyon and enjoyed the beautiful weather.

I love Ty's expression...all I wanted was a normal picture!

I love this picture just because the red rocks are amazing and that guy in the red shirt is pretty good lookin' too.

Friday night we went out to Chuck"up"-A-Rama...yes, another St. George tradition. Lucky enough we saw Elder Holland and his family eating at the same time. Elder Holland was sporting a yellow shirt and khaki pants, very fitting for a General Authority. We noticed he was a meat and potatoes kind of guy but still got his veggies.

Dave and I stayed most of the afternoon on Saturday to do some more hikes. We did a short walk to Jenny's Canyon and then another hike out to the 3 pools.

What a great Thanksgiving...I wonder what we'll be doing next year?
