St. George

We left for St. George for the long 16 hour drive on Monday afternoon. 3 hrs into the drive, KaeLynn is complaining that she is sick. I thought she was feeling car sick from the movie she watched. Then she puked. She has never puked from car sickness before, but there is always a first time for everything. At about the 4th time of puking, I knew she had a stomach bug. She was doing pretty well in between throwing up so we decided to keep on going. Especially because it did not smell. Otherwise we probably would have stayed at a hotel. She puked a total of 12 times! She kept puking all the way up until we pulled into the drive way of my sister's in St. George. When we pulled Daniel out of his car seat we noticed that he also had puked. We had a day to re cooperate and rest from driving through the night. On Wednesday we went to a few Church Historic Sites. We went to the Temple visitor center, Brigham Young's winter house, and Jacob Hamblin house. I love visiting these kinds of places. Then Wednesday night we went to Thriller. A musical performance at the outdoor amphitheater at Touacon. On their website, they advertise that you can pay for child care while you our at the show. You just have to preregister. So an hour before the show I called to do this, when they told me that they are not offering child care for the thriller show! KaeLynn was old enough to go to the show, but we had to scramble to find a sitter for Daniel. Then we had to pay for a ticket when she wouldn't even get a seat. She had to sit on out lap. We tried to fight it, but it was no use. Then we get to the show and there was a big sign saying that this show is not recommended for children under 12! KaeLynn gets scared very easy so I was worried. She did very well, because I don't think she understood some of the performances. Then Thursday, my sister took off a day of work to take us to Zion! I have been looking forward to this since my sister moved to St. George. When Cavan and I woke up we both felt a little off. By the time we got there we were both sick with what the kids had. Body chills and all!!! I was so dissapointed! We did a very short walk at lunch and got out of there! It was so beautiful, but we felt so crummy! We felt much better in the morning when we found out that Cavan left his phone in Zion. So back in the car we went to get his phone. We felt much better, but had no time to explore. We then went to the St. George pumpkin patch. It was totally lame, but the kids did not seem to mind. The weather was gorgeous while we were there, and I plan to go back in a few months. I just can't get enough of St. George!
