Weekend Getaway

Sand Hollow State Park











St George was a fun and relaxing weekend! We arrived on Friday night and stayed at the new hotel called the Hilton Garden Inn. It was really nice and clean, which is always a plus for me. Right when we got there we enjoyed the sun by going to the pool! Saturday morning we had such a good time, we went rollerblading and longboarding on a cute path along the Virgin River. The weather was so nice and beautiful so we took advantage of wearing shorts and a t-shirt. We went to the pool when we got back and laid around and read our books. Aaron took a break from reading schoolbooks and started reading For Whom the Bells Toll, and I finished up the last book of the Twilight serious, Eclipse. I think my favorite book out of all 3 was New Moon, which I know a lot of people did not like, but it kept me the most interested and intrigued. After laying out by the pool we went back to the room and I noticed that Aaron was a little pink, well a little more than pink, let me just say that he looked like a lobster. The sun didn’t feel like it was penetrating enough to leave a sunburn, but now we stand corrected. Aaron shoulders had not seen the sun all winter so when they did they sucked it all in. Even though Aaron was left in pain he was still grateful for the sun! Later that night we watch the Bucket List in our hotel room. We both thought it was a really cute show and would recommend it. On Sunday morning we went to Sand Hollow State Park. The water was to cold to go swimming so we went hiking around looking at all the beautiful scenery. We spent the rest of our time eating out, shopping and just relaxing on our weekend getaway.


We always stop in Scipio to pick up squeaky cheese
