The first full day in St. George we headed out to enjoy Zion National Park. The weather was so nice and the red mountains were so beautiful! We started off the day with a drive through a tunnel that was 1 mile long. I am sad to say that I do not have any pictures of us driving through the tunnel.
After the tunnel we stopped at some random red rocks to let h kids run around and hike! Andrew was not about to let his cousins leave him behind he many be 4 years younger than his next cousin and 8 years younger than his next boy cousin but he thinks that he is just as old and can do anything that they do! 
Grandma, Grandpa, Jeff, Taylor, Shea and Kinnick all ready to head up the hill. 
Hiking up the hill and look who is taking the lead ANDREW! 
Taylor and Grandma did not like hiking to high so they were always willing to keep Maelee down low! 
Aunt Jodi was a great help with Andrew and getting him where he wanted. The little blue dot is Hunter climbing to the top of the big red rocks! 
Kim and Shea taking a little break. 
Going up was much easier then coming down. Maelee holding some rocks that she had found. 
Hunter saw a lizard and decided to go look for more which lead us to this cool underpass that took us to the other side of the road. 
Andrew and Maelee posing with the awesome red rocks in the background. 
Andrew loves his Grandpa so getting to hike with him was one awesome day! 
The rock behind us is called checkered rock! 
Andrew loved finding little coves in the rock and climbing into them! 
Hiking to the pools. We decided to go all the way and see all 3 of the pools they were awesome and the kids did great hiking all the way there and back! 
Shea and Jeff were trooper caring the 2 little ones everywhere we went!
The waterfall that fell into the biggest pool. 
The hike back from the pools was long but we made it out just in time to catch one of the last busses out of the park, lets just say we were all tired and ready for a good meal and bed!
