family ties

Denise and her boys have been in Logan for the past month. Vickie, Jeff, Chris and their families came over and up this weekend and we went geocaching.

My sister and I are doing a food blog. We're still trying to get things aesthetically pleasing, but check it out: http://pickievickie.blogspot.com/

geocaching

Our new found hobby is geocaching. We love it! It seems like every free moment we have Joe want to go find another one. I love being with him and I love finding the treasure-filled caches. We sold our old camera and are waiting for a memory card for our other one, so pictures to come at a later date.

**NOTE: Geocaching is using a handheld GPS to find caches. These caches could be as big as an ammo box or as little as a medical tube to test blood. Joe and I are still working on recognizing caches.

I guess he was hungry.

exercise, exercise

Here's Corban working out pretty hard. Look at those big, lean muscles.

Viva Las Vegas

The whole family went down to Las Vegas to visit Alyn, Joe's brother, and his family. It was warm and sunny, but a little breezy, but A LOT warmer than here. We went to the shark encounter at Mandalay Bay, The Blue Man Group, shopping at the outlet mall, watched some hoops, and ate a lot of good, good food.

The Vegas Becks have a guest suit that includes a king sized bed. Joe definitely got too used to that bed. Two nights here in Utah and I woke up with a knee in my back. A king-sized bed is most definitely a purchase we will be making in the future.

Corban did pretty good in the car. He napped for about an hour both ways and then watched DVDs. I use "DVDs" loosely because he really only watched one DVD multiple times. By about Provo, on our way home, he was screaming, "Out!" It's funny now, but I'm sure glad we're all out of that car.

We had a blast and can't wait for the weather to catch up here and get warmer. Thanks Vegas Becks for a fabulous weekend!

sweatin' to the oldies

Joe and I are on a weight-loss plan. We're exercising and eating better. We've even taken before pictures to compare at the end. Don't worry though, we won't be posting any of those pictures on here. You can, wish us luck though.
