Sun in Saint George

This weekend we did a somewhat last minute camping trip to Sand Hallow near Saint George. We drove down Friday night. Spent the first few hours getting our trailer and truck unstuck--we were buried down to all axles on both vehicles--luckily right when it happened a scout troop of about 20 12-year-olds showed up and and did their good service. Then two of my brothers rolled in with their families and we had a blast all Saturday. We played in the sand, rode J's Jeep, rhino, and 4ler--as he calls it, and did some good hiking on the red rocks. The kids loved playing with their cousins, Ben loved taking the rhino out, and I loved being in the warm sun. Needless to say we all got a little toasted by the end of the day.

And at the close of Saturday we decided to take a trip to the Entrada and have a little dip in the pool before we drove home. Well we weren't planning on swimming when I packed for the trip and I didn't have a swim diap or swimsuit for Faith, but I didn't think much of it because she had just taken a major poop about an hour before and she usually will mention a poop before it actually comes, plus I thought she would look cute topless and just Daisy Dukes ' at the pool. --You know where this is going don't you-- So then the worst moment of my motherhood happened. She pooped another big log while in the Jacuzzi. I ran and grabbed the net, told Ben to fish it out, then I ran in the Bathroom and got a bunch of paper towels to get rid of it. So unbelievably nasty. It was just my family in the Jacuzzi--luckily, but the other family at the pool just so happened to be some friends of ours from college. Now we are going to be remembered as the family that let their little girl poop in the pool.

So moral of the story--always put a swim diap in your baby regardless of her bowel movments that day (that way only you will know she pooped in the pool) and if you ever go to Entrada, avoid the indoor Jacuzzi.


Oh, and here are a few pics from Sand Hollow...
