This summer was the second annual, Jacksons-go-to-St. George-Utah-during-the summer-because-we-are-crazy vacation.
At least Covey thought it was a good idea.
I flew in from the West Coast, Matt flew in from the East Coast, and the rest of the crew drove down from Utah county. It was the first time we had all been together since Christmas.
Our Sunday walk turned into a photo shoot. Enjoy.
This kid. I can't.
So happy to be together.
So sad that it was only going to be for a week.
Collecting "flowers for Mom" soon became a mission.
You might just see a trailer in an empty lot,
but we saw a photo opp.
How Makenzie feels about Rachel leaving her for college.
But then she remembers she gets Rachel's room.
Some of these flowers might have actually come from someones garden...whoops.
One of the days we did go fishing for crawdads and swimming in a spring fed pool.
With the temptation of some raw hotdogs on a string, those crawdads didn't stand a chance.
We stopped by Veyo Pies on the way home. Would recommend.
On our last day, we hiked Kanarra Falls
the falls looked nothing like this mural.
It is a hike that is primarily through a river that will lead you to a slot canyon, and then some small (really small) waterfalls.
Most of us hiked it in flip flops-would not recommend.
It was a beautiful hike-would recommend.

It was a great week spent in St. George, with the weekend spent back in Provo. We saw Incredibles 2 and celebrated Fathers Day at Grandma and Grandpa Clarks. Then I got on a plane to fly back to California.
A few more things that happened...
It was Brittany's birthday, who is also now my roommate.
Tiffany and I made her this delicious Funfetti cake with cake crumbs between the layers and on top. Would recommend.
Before the cake and ice cream, we spent the night belting our hearts out at karaoke and eating Chick-Fil-A for dinner.
The Sunday before the 4th of July.
We dressed appropriately.
Another coordinating outfit, calls for another picture.
On the actual Forth of July I went to brunch, went thrift shopping, attended a pool/BBQ party, watched fireworks from the Google baseball fields, and then went to In-N-Out at 10:45 at night. A pretty all American day if I do say so myself.
We played frisbee on the field while we waited for the fireworks to start,
It was delicious-would recommend.
One night we went went to watch a summer outdoor movie in Redwood City.
Gotta love summer nights-even though you need a jacket if you are in Northern California.
