St. George Getaway

Last weekend I went to St. George on a girls' trip with some of my sisters... Lori and my two sisters-in-law Emilee and Chloe.  It was so fun to get away for a weekend to warmer weather and to just relax!  We left Friday after work and escaped the cold weather.  Apparently we left at the just right time... there was a big snowstorm in northern Utah the weekend we were gone!  Anyway, we were lucky to stay at Emilee's parents' house in St. George, so we didn't have to pay for a hotel.  

Our whole purpose for going was Parade of Homes.  Emilee's mom had some leftover tickets from the previous weekend, so we didn't have to pay for those either.  I didn't keep track, but on Saturday we went to probably 10 or 15 houses.  We literally spent 8 hours looking at houses, with a break in between to have a delicious lunch at Chili's, but it was surprisingly really fun!  Well, except for the fact that I was sick and completely lost my voice, but that's okay.  I took lots of pictures (hooray for finally finding my camera charger!), but here are just a few pictures of some of my favorites from Parade of Homes.

It was a really quick trip... we drove back Sunday morning.  We were a little nervous for the drive between St. George and Beaver... I think some of us debated turning around at some points because we were basically driving through blizzard conditions and couldn't even see the road.  But we made it and had a great weekend!
