St. George Weekend

Connor had a soccer tournament last weekend in St. George. We were hoping it would be sunny and warm...well, it was mostly sunny and in the mid 50's. Except for the 8pm game...that was chilly. We went prepared with warm weather gear so it wasn't too bad. At least the weather was better than what we were getting back home!
The boys played 3 games (all against SLC teams!) on 3 different fields-Pine View High, Dixie High and Snow Canyon High (this was where Jeff taught seminary all those years ago!) The fields were all turf (pretty hard on the skin-the boys were pretty torn up) and were convex- something they had never experienced before and had to adjust their style to play on.
We stayed at a condo near where we used to live, which was fun. Besides the soccer games, we went shopping at the outlets -a lot of success there :), visited some friends-thanks Keith & Jenny and Delinn, fed the ducks and geese by Grandpa and Grandma Stephens old house,

and ate at my favorite restaurant-Paula's Mexican!


It was a nice, relaxing weekend...you might wonder where the other children are...Sierra, Boston and Annicha stayed in Delta with Bret and Lisa, who also watched our dog. Thank you! We hear they had a really fun time as well: jumping on the tramp, making cookies, going to the movie, shopping, bike riding, going to the park and riding Dallin's electric scooter.

These were taken while traveling from St. George to Delta to pick up the middle children...
