In place of a major summer vacation this year the boys and girls did a little split trip weekend. Grandma Callahan, the Staley girls, Sydnie, Janelle & Izzy Rigby and me and my girls went down to St. George for the weekend to see "Beauty and the Beast" at the Tuacahn Theater.
Now this was a really big deal for my girls and I'll tell you why: Their mom (aka me) gets to go on an annual girls weekend to St. George with friends once a year. Just moms -so fun by the way-. So when they found out that they got to go on a girls only trip to that same place mom takes her girls trip, they were over the moon! Couldn't wait.
We all shared a condo that was great! 5 Adults and 5 younger girls. The young girls thought their room was awesome as it had two bunk beds and two roll out beds so that they could all sleep together. Plus there was a pool! what's not to love? And they all fit in the one big tub haha! Very effective for cleaning as you can obviously see.
Janelle (Brad's cousin) bought all the young girls little Belle bags and filled them with all kids of fun stuff and they all thought it was fantastic! While Izzy was the expert in hair makeover for the weekend. And no one cooks like Grandma Peggy! She made them their favorite breakfast one morning, her famous pancakes, and steak and hotdogs another night!
The Tuacahn has a little market on the weekends so we went shopping there and at the outlets. I admit that not being a big shopper myself I have never really taken my girls on a shopping trip... fail? I told them that they could each pick out a new school outfit. They had a lot of fun with this!
And Beauty and the Beast? Awesome! we loved it. I had never been to the Tuacahn either and it was great to see an outside production and how well they used their surroundings as part of the show. It was really fun. Embrie and Maren were mesmerized!
We stayed behind to meet the cast and didn't get home that night until midnight, but everyone slept in and had a blast!
