This was a while ago now, but on one of the first really beautiful days, we had a whole day of playing outside and we loved every minute of the great St. George spring weather. We started by going to play with Jude and Cristina since they have a yard. It is sooooo nice to have a grassy area all of our own (eventhough it's not really ours, but they are always nice to share). The boys all crammed into Cristina's bike trailer for rides, ran around, and played. The little neighbor girl even joined us for a little while for sidewalk chalk and enjoying the sun. They loved it. Then we headed home for nap time, which went so smoothly since the had played hard and been outside.
After nap time, when Brian got home from class, we all went outside again. This time to the Dixie rocks for climbing and jumping fun. Our boys love it up there with their whole hearts!
The guys even did some strength tests this time by seeing how long they could hang from this little ledge. Dexy, not so long. Basically not so long that it was non-existent, but he tried.
Ollie, for surprisingly longer than most people would expect. This kid has great strength and body control!
I choose not to hang, but instead climbed into a little cave to sit and watch. The boys thought it looked like fun, so Brian helped them climb up to join me. This is an absolutely terrible picture of me, which makes me sad because there are so few of me enjoying family activities (I'm always the one behind the camera) and the boys look so cute, but at least it's a picture I guess.
And of course, there were death jumps to make. Ollie's new favorite jump! This sucker is high, especially considering the fact that Oliver is just barely 3 years old. His trust in his Daddy astounds me and his lack of fear for this kind of stuff is amazing. He is also really good to only jump when Brian says and to be careful while climbing up and waiting. He's such a good boy!

I love all your red rock pictures. I want our family to be an outside family. We live in such a beautiful place.
