Trip Home, Day 1, 2, 3, 4…

 

It had been a little over a year and a half since I was able to go home to St. George, so this trip was much needed and anticipated.  We were SO excited to go, but SAD to leave Kyle behind.  We had to make the trip before Sadie turned 2 so we wouldn’t have to pay for a full seat.  We made it just in time and came home the day before her birthday.

On our way to the airport!

On the way there Sadie was able to sit in the car-seat in her own seat.  That was REALLY great.  She did really well and thought the whole airplane things was pretty fun.  Luckily it was a direct flight to Vegas…

And we made it just fine! We spent a little time waiting at the baggage claim

And were excited to finally see my parents.

We stopped by the body exhibit in the Luxor.  It was SUPER cool!  If you ever find yourself in Vegas, it is a must see.  They are real bodies preserved forever with such cool stuff.  You can see every single detail and they have lot’s of different rooms for different parts of the body.  It was a really great experience and I’m so glad I saw it, bummed I couldn’t take any pictures.

After that we stopped by the Mandalay Bay and checked out the aquarium, next time we’ll see the big shark exhibit there.  I’m saving that for when I’m with Kyle though, he LOVES fish!

I just had to snap a shot of the palm trees to remember forever ;)  So sad I don’t live near them anymore, but I guess that makes it better when  we go visit!

After a long day, Sadie was pooped.  She rarely EVER falls asleep in her car-seat so when she does, I have to take a picture.  I think I’m up to 5 now…

DAY 3- Early morning temple trip and the pet store.  I haven’t been back in the St. George temple since I got married (almost 6 years) so it was a great experience.  I just wish Kyle was able to be there too!

Sadie loved this Nemo fish, too bad it was plastic ;)  What you don’t know won’t hurt you right!

DAY 4- My mom did a triathlon sprint on day 4.  I'm glad I got to be there to watch her, it was super fun.  She did it with 2 other lady friends and she did a great job.

Someday I’ll be doing it with you too, maybe!100_0520 

After the triathlon we went to check out the house my parents were really hoping to buy.  (They did end up getting it, about 2 months later, and just recently moved in.)

The have a sidekick (it looks like a life size micro-machine car) and we took it up the side of the hill up the street of their new house.  This face explains it all….just kidding.  Sadie actually really loved it.

My brother Bruce and his wife Brittney are in the front seats, they came to visit for a few days while we were there.  Sadie still talks about how much she loves Madi, their daughter.  Her and Sadie are about 10 months apart.
