March Madness Part 2!

SO glad we've been living in St. George this winter where Northern Utah got record amounts of snow and cold and we enjoyed early blossoms and tons of sun! We got a playhouse put together for the grandkids and our yard is ready for visitors!

Headed up north for our annual celebration of St. Patrick's Day at the Mandarin in Bountiful. Since the Kings couldn't be with us, Papa invited my family members that lived nearby to join us. It was delicious as usual.

We stayed overnight at Garrett's house (where John stays the majority of his work week) and it was fun to hang with the kiddos for 24 hours.

John is always back in St. George on the weekends and we made the most of the beautiful weather getting out to see Gunlock Falls and taking the shuttle bus tour of Zion National Park with the Seachrest's.

March Madness Part 1!

Our Washington Fields 20th Ward set up an evening with Benja, the founder and owner of Benja Thai Restaurant in St. George. She taught us how to make spring rolls and we got to take several home. They were delicious--especially her secret sauce...

John & I hadn't seen the Hughes kids since the end of December so we flew up to spend a few days with them. They love to visit us at our hotel in Couer d'Alene to eat breakfast, swim and look at the bronze Sasquatch out the window.

We also went shopping in downtown Couer d'Alene and to the petting farm. John and I drove past the Spokane Temple on our way to the airport since we'd never seen it before...
