St. George, Utah ~ ZION ~ Las Vega$

trying on the marathon finshers' medals: future runners?
.
Last weekend our family enjoyed a 5 day trip away. A small group that I run with decided to run the St. George (Utah) marathon so Mike and I decided to make a family vacation of it. The kids did great during the 7 hour drive over. We stayed two nights in St. George so I could run the marathon, made a quick trip to Zion National Park and then spent two nights in Las Vegas on our way back. This allowed us to break up the drive home and see some different things. Despite the three of them having colds and me being tired from the marathon, we had a great time seeing some new areas and doing some fun things. Can't wait to go back to Utah again someday to spend more time visiting the gorgeous national parks!
