My parents had lunch with us Friday (which happened to be my birthday) and then headed back to San Diego. After saying goodbye (which brought on some tears from the kids) we headed home and packed up our own bags. A little while later we were on the road heading the opposite direction to St. George to spend Easter weekend with Lance's parents and extended family. It was noted how neat it was for us to get to see both sets of grandparents on the same day. 
We were glad to have a fun little adventure away from home to wrap up Spring Break. St. George is a great getaway for us as it is only about 1 1/2 hours away. We've gone there several of the last few years for Easter so we've got our list of things we like to do. There was swimming in the pool, birthday cupcakes and later cake, the Kiwanis Easter Egg Hunt in the park (which Zuri found exhausting), the Arts Festival, in the hotel room treasures from the Easter Bunny, and all of the standard Red Cliffs family traditions -dutch oven dinner and breakfast, great grandkids Easter Egg Hunt, 2nd cousin buddies, and a little bit of hiking. The weather was great and we enjoyed being on a little adventure. Our kids love this trip every year and are always sad (more kids tears) for it to all come to an end. It is a strange feeling to watch most everyone head back up to SLC as we pull out the opposite direction for Vegas. But it sure is nice to have the short drive home and get to unwind a bit before starting back on school again the next day.
