Geocaching Anyone?

You might wonder why I would even take a picture of us like this. You might also wonder why we would be doing this in the first place. The short explanation is: geocaching. Almost exactly a year ago my brother-in-law, Jake took us geocaching for the first time. We had so much fun we decided to get our own geocaching accounts. As of this afternoon I have found 240 geocaches. Brian is in the 300's and the kids are really close to me. Our one year anniversary is Aug. 7th. We will be attending a geocache event that day at Whiting Campground in Mapleton Canyon. I heard this quote that sums up geocaching so well,"I use million dollar satellites to find tupperware in the the woods. What's your hobby?" If you want to try it sometime let me know. We are more than willing to share the joy! Happy caching!

Fourth of July Fun

Brian and I woke up at 5am and went down to Provo with our friend Mallory. We went to a geocaching event down by the balloon festival. Then we found another 12 geocaches. I found my 200th geocache! When we got home the kids were just getting up. They spent the day playing in the pool and relaxing. Later that night we had a BBQ and lit fireworks. We had a very nice day. I spent a lot of time thinking of our friends and family who can't be with us this year. I am so grateful for their sacrifices to ensure our freedoms and the freedoms of others. I can never hear the Star Spangled Banner without tears. Freedom isn't free!
