Vacation to Zions

This past weekend we went to Zions to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. I would say it was about 3/4 fun, 1/4 disaster. It was really nice to have a break from my kids for a few days though. It started with the drive which was about 2 hours longer than Google said it would be. Then our friends Kim and Nick, (who we know from St. George, Kim and I worked together at the spa) were extremely late and lost and we ended up having to spend most of the first day waiting for them. So we couldn't do a whole lot till they got there, and we were starving so when they finally got there we went to some restaurant that was very over priced and very disgusting. So that was disappointing. So after that I was determined to have fun and change things around. So we went swimming and then had dinner.....

And then we went into town and found a ranch that had some elk and buffalo and cows that you could pet and feed. That was pretty fun...and terrifying........

Then we went to some gift shops and galleries.......

Then, we drove back to our cabins and as we were getting into our cabin there were a lot of bugs and I was swatting a huge moth away and happened to do the "perfect storm" of movements and dislocated my shoulder. I wish a had a cooler story of how I did it but I don't. It was really gross, my arm was all crooked and I almost died. Swear words might have come out of my mouth. Michael popped it back in and I could not stop shaking uncontrollably. I can't even think of words that can describe how much it hurt. So then I was ruined for the rest of the trip. We had all this stuff planned that I could no longer do. I was so mad. So they called a medic in and they bandaged me up.......

Then we drove back into town and stopped for some pictures of the beautiful park....

Then we went to a IMAX movie called Dinosaurs Alive 3D. It was really cool, and nauseating at the same time.....




Then we went to lunch and drove home. So it was fun and not fun at the same time. I talked to my brother in law who is a doctor and I have to wear a sling for a week and I can't move it. Moms are not allowed to get hurt! I can't lift my baby or cook or take a shower. It's lovely. So thats my weekend. Some day I'll get a real vacation....... :)
