It’s hard to believe that we’ve been on vacation for seven days already, but it is starting to show. The boys, including myself, are beginning to show signs of fatigue. It has been amazingly fun and exciting but I guess we have to stop and rest at some point.
Today we didn’t venture to far from the condo. Michelle and I went to an owner’s education class in the morning while the boys played at the playground and watched a movie. After the class we came back to our condo and had lunch.
After lunch we took the boys down to learn about shuffleboard and horseshoes. David has a knack for shuffleboard and he was able to defeat Michelle and I in our first game. Then the boys played horseshoes while Michelle and I played a game. I just have bad luck or I’m not that great at shuffleboard because I lost big time. We had fun and after our game we turned in the equipment (to the front desk).
For our afternoon activity we took the boys to see the St. George temple and spent some time at the visitor’s center. We watched a couple of movies and talked to the sister missionaries there. They were very nice and accommodating and did a very good job tailoring their testimonies to our boys level of understanding. Aleky was very outspoken and was happily talking to everyone use his 3 Spanish words (not including numbers). We also stopped at Brigham Young’s summer home and drove past the historic tabernacle in downtown St. George.
We made a quick stop at the store to pick up some milk and snacks for the drive home and returned to our condo. The boys revived after the 10 minute drive back to the condo and were running through the condo a top speed. We had a yummy pancake and egg dinner, some ice cream for dessert and made the boys write a journal entry before bed.
After the past few days this day seems so calm and uneventful but I don’t know that we were up for anything more than that. I guess it’s time to get some rest before heading back to reality tomorrow. We still have a fun stop or two on the way so we’ll see how that turns out.
