April Came and Went

Hello, hello! 
We had a lot going on in April and I have been totally out of the blog scene or at least incredibly unmotivated! Jarom has had a crazy schedule lately, working from 8-4 and then driving all the way to Kayesville for school from 4:30-9 on Monday-Thursday, in the crazy, stupid Utah traffic! He is doing awesome so far, but I'm pretty concerned because that is a pretty extreme schedule! Hopefully he doesn't lose steam too soon!
We spent the 20th through the 25th of April in St. George, our favorite place to vacation! The weather was not great and we were super bummed. We left northern Utah to get to some warmer weather and it was rainy and windy for all except the last two days, but we still had a lot of fun! It was my grandpa's birthday on the 23rd so there was a big group of us (me and Jarom for some of the time, my parents and brothers, grandpa and grandma, Jannette and Cameron) that went on this trip kind of as a birthday trip! Jarom had to work so he drove down Friday, leaving me alone with my family :) haha. I totally felt like I was in high school again! It is weird to not have a partner to do stuff with! So this is a quick summary of what happened...

We went to Kolob Canyon one of the days and it was snowing all the way there (yuck!) and there had been a rock slide the day before so the road was closed and we couldn't go anyway.
On the way back to town from Kolob, we stopped in this town, Leeds, where there was a "ghost town" but there really wasn't anything there but this mine shaft thing that I'm sitting on!
Jannette and Cameron (Love this picture! Cam is the cheesiest smiler I've ever seen!)
This day we went for a 0.2 mi. walk to find some indian writings that turned into a 2 mile hike, this would've been all good except for the fact that I was wearing my black flats that now have holes in the sides. Jannette was wearing black wedge flip-flops with rhinestone bling, so at least my shoes weren't the least practical! Also, I know this face is super weird, but I think my hair looks crazy cool!
We went to Zion National Park, I forgot my camera so these pictures are from last years trip! We really love that place, there are some really great hikes and we can't wait to do them all! Plus, they have great (and expensive) Ice Cream Cones at the lodge...Bonus!
I take a lot of pictures of my feet! I might have to do a whole series, like "oh the places I go"
This is us up on the Dixie. Man, are we the cutest?!?! We are my favorite!
We also went to Snow Canyon (it only rained some of the time!) those pictures are still on my phone, we ate some yummy cheeseburgers (three guesses as to where they came from), went shopping and got a little sun! 
I loooove vacation!
xoxo.
