January-May

So here we and and it's May. Life has been quite enjoyable lately and we've just been go go go, so I need to catch up on life over the past 4 months.

JANUARY we celebrated 5 years of marriage! For the weekend of our anniversary, we decided to take an evening trip to Mesquite. My parents watched the kids and Chase and I went to Samurai 21 and then to a casino. It wasn't the most successful of nights until like 11:55pm when I won $250 playing computer bingo. It was so funny and completely awesome! We also enjoyed going to St. George for a couple weekends and seeing family.

FEBRUARY was crazy because we moved to St. George! As you may or may not have known, we've been living in Centerville, Utah, for the last year and this opportunity to move to St. George came up. And it's just crazy. It's now May and I'm still shocked we live in St. George again. We feel so blessed to be here! (I have a post coming about the opportunity to move to St. George). Of course, right after we moved here, we accidentally must have brought the snow here for a week or so. Also in February, my brother, Jackson, got his mission call to the Colombus Ohio Mission and he leaves July 3rd.

 MARCH weather was fantastic! Bless you St. George spring weather! We had some fun with family going to the sand dunes a couple times in Snow Canyon State Park, going on scooter rides, walks to see horses, the duck pond and park.

APRIL was a fun month and did so much! I turned 26, Chase and I went for a scoot ride date through Snow Canyon State Park, we celebrated Easter and went to Red Cliffs with the Robinson side to have lunch, hike, and do an Easter Egg Hunt. We also traveled up to Provo to see my sister graduate from BYU and celebrate my dad's birthday, and I also got to spend an afternoon with my high school friends!

MAY was hot then cold, up then down, but still lots of fun! We have gone to get snow cones a handful of times since it opened up for summer! I got a new area rug for my birthday/Mother's Day that I love a lot. Of course, I got it the same week that me and the kids got the stomach flu. I successfully didn't have any vomit destruction come in contact with my rug. But I did clean up vomit everywhere else, and cleaning throw up from a car seat is the ultimate worst. THE WORST! Then the next week, Hallie gashed her head on something falling off a kitchen chair and got 2 stitches. My parents bought a lot that has a little clubhouse and pool and we are loving having pool days, especially since Ashton decided he is capable to swim by himself around the pool with his life jacket. He is usually pretty cautious about the water and likes to cling to me in the water, but suddenly, he is just loving being independent in the water, and I am digging it! My little brother and youngest sibling graduated high school and went through the temple to prepare for his mission that he leaves on in just one month. And now that my little brother, almost 8 years younger than me, is graduated and going on his mission, I'm now realizing that I'm getting old, dang it. After celebrating Jackson going through the temple, my family headed to Lake Powell for the first time this year (twice in the same week). I'm pumped to live closer to Powell now so I can go more! A Powell post will be coming soon because that deserves its own post.

2019 has been such a fun year so far! Chase and I are constantly talking about how much we are enjoying life living in St. George and being near people we love, places we love, and doing the things we love! Life is good my friends!
