Now that the girls are going to Diane's while I'm working, they come home with all sorts of yummy food and treats (she spoils us). This time we got some yummy cupcakes Indie helped make.
Grammie's school had a literacy night we got to go to. Each grade had decorations and an activity based on different books/themes. One was making headbands with Goldilocks' or one of the bears' faces. You colored and cut out the face then glued it to a headband. Indie loved coloring for a minute then found the scissors and just wanted to cut. This girl loves crafting! We could not get her away from that. She didn't care about the headband, though.
She also got to make a wand so Adam and I taught her spells like "Bibidibobidi-boo" and "Abracadabra".
They had hot dogs for dinner; Indie had a bite or two then mostly just wanted the bun.
Grammie had some sweet sunglasses Indie got to keep.
For Christmas, Diane gave Adam and I a certificate for a weekend at Snowbird and she would watch the girls. When we were planning our trip we had hardly no snow this winter so we decided to go to St. George instead. Adam let me drag him mountain biking but was quickly regretting it [I think] when this "Beginner-Intermediate" trail proved well beyond our ability with lots of sand to slide out in and steep hillsides with big rocks, and not clear so we had to guess our way around. We were probably off our bikes more than on. We made the best out of it, though, and enjoyed this cool tunnel and indentations in the rocks.
That night we went to Casablanca in Mesquite for their seafood buffet with Uncle Dave and his family. We enjoy it because the crab legs are already cut open for us. Adam and I got there early so we killed some time walking around the resort and being disgustingly love-y like newlyweds.
I dusted off my golf clubs and went golfing at Coral Canyon. Adam gave me some tips and I did okay teeing off and putting for the first half then got bored but we continued along all 18. I did more ball finding while Adam heated up most of the back 9. The course was quite backed up so I kept busy doing some Indie moves while we waited.
That afternoon we worked off our sore bums for another mtn. bike session. Adam was a trooper through sore legs. This trail, More Cowbell, was neat as it rode around the red cliffs and we could look out over the valley. Near the end it has a cowbell you have to hit as you ride by.
I've heard about a number of great eateries in St. George, so we indulged with refreshing Swig, Cravings cookies, and Benja Thai and Sushi. Once we couldn't stuff ourselves anymore we soaked our tired bodies in the hot tub.
Meanwhile, the girls had fun with Grandma. The local library has yoga and story time Indie loves going to.
They went to the Home & Garden show. Indie sat on this riding lawn mower saying, "I help Bubba Ehwin".
At the park, Indie did some angels in the sand (I think she was doing it like snow angels).
