We stayed in St George for a couple of days with JoAnn and her girls, Chris, Mom and Dad and even Nikki came to join the fun. 
Everyone had a great time swimming, Olivia didn't get out of the pool unless she had to.
On Monday Dean and I took the older kids into the narrows for a hike.
It was the first time any of them had ever been there, and the third time for the two of us. We all had an awesome time. Luckily I didn't fall untill I put the camera away, I think Dean was the only one who didn't fall on the way in.
It was so beautiful hiking, what a wonderful place to be on a hot summer day.
We stopped about 2 1/2 hours into the hike at a place called orderville canyon, ate lunch and played around a little.
Max found a hiking stick when we started, and kept hold of it the whole time. I think it really helped him to have since he was a bit nervous going through parts of the water that were deeper than his knees.
This area was fun. Kenya and I tried to swim through up stream, while everyone else walked around on shore. It didn't work to well though. Then on our way back out we all swam through, some of us went through about six or seven times, it was so deep we had to float through.
We also met Jaba the rock while we were hiking.
What a great experience to share with the kids. Everyone loved it and nobody had any major injuries, just some bumps and bruises. We can't wait to take the kids again in a few years when the girls are big enough.
