Friday we celebrated Brooke's birthday with an early morning chat, arrangements for the day and then all met up for lunch at Brooke's favorite local eatery of 25 Main...
One of the cutest little cafe/cupcake shop...
We finished off the afternoon with some great shopping and spending lots of money and spending lots of time with this girl...
Lulu decided to make an appearance for some of the weekend, love it when she shows up...
On the docket for the night was a sing-a-long extravaganza to "Mamma Mia!" The singing and dancing began with the sing-a-long version, yes words on the screen and everything...
We were really getting into it, especially Mom...
Josh was loving it, when we took a break for some visitors he kept asking "Can we watch Mamma Mia now?!?" He was the star dancer too...
The entertainment continued...
Pretty much pooped after a two hour show, sitting around and talking was so fun with the group... 
We finished off the festivities with Oreo pie for the birthday girl and then some hot tubing... 
Heidi and Mom headed home the next day which left Shannon, Brooke, and myself. We celebrated the Love day (as border line bitter single girls) mostly like this...
But actually had a really good day full of swimming, reading, movies, and food. What better way is there to spend the holiday? (random occurrence of the day: hanging out that night with one of Steve's ex-girlfriends. Yes, of all the places and of all the people. I kinda liked the awkward irony)
Sunday we went to church and had our fill of tragic love movies. I don't think we moved off the couches for a good 5 hours. Being lazy on vacation is the best!
Monday we ventured out for breakfast, hit up some local sights, and enjoyed the last of our time together.
I just love getting away to St. George and couldn't have picked a better weekend. Hanging out with Brooke for her birthday was a blast and the long weekend provided plenty of days to do nothing! Having part of the family and Shannon there just made it better, it was too bad more people couldn't have joined us.
I have decided I am going to look into making my life a permanent vacation, anyone want to join me?

I love all your pictures. I think Mom take the award for the best dancer!! Josh can be a close 2nd. I am so glad that you and Shannon decided to come down. It is always so much fun to be together. I love that Shannon fits right in. Since the elephant in the room just grew I think I can add my 2cents. There is someon out there amazing that will treat you FABULOUS!!! I am sorry that you are going through some hard times. You are always welcome out at our house for a little Wii. Love you
What a fun weekend! I can't believe it's already come and gone! It was such a treat having everyone down there. We had lots of yummy eats, laughs, and dancing. V-day was a treat what are you talking about!? I love sitting around wallowing in single loneliness. Can we do it again next year? I love you lots and just want you to move down here! OK!
There is so much I LOVE about this post. Seriously. I'm loving everything about Mom dancing. She wasn't kidding when she said she was totally uninhibited. I love it. And I love you in every pic. You are beautiful. Honest, SO, SO photogenic. Looks like it was all tons of fun. I'm sorry I missed all that was SG last weekend.
Glad you missed the 22car pile up on your way to fun party and people in St. George.
You're too precious to us to have problems!!!
