Vacation

This weekend was spent in St. George, UT. Amy's birthday was today (sunday), and for her birthday we came down to see Les Miserables at the Tuacahn Theatre. It was cool. I haven't ever been to a musical quite like it. We had a good time, and even ran into some folks from our ward that went down too. We both have tomorrow off, and will be driving back home.
Today we spent the morning at Snow Canyon Park. It's a park that is about 4-5 miles long, and has probably about 10-11 different hiking trails. We didn't know what was here, so we didn't really prepare, but we ended up doing a few of the short hikes. We hiked up into a small slot canyon called Jenny's Canyon, and then we went and climbed all over the Petrified Dunes, last of all, we did a short hike they call Pioneer Names Trail. It's basically a small trail near a big rock face, where some pioneers back in 1894 wrote their names in axel grease on the rock face. Very interesting. After the morning adventure, we went to lunch at The Bear Paw. It's a small restaurant, that only serves breakfast and lunch. It was tasty food! After lunch we came back to the motel and crashed until 7. Man I was sleepy! We went out and had dinner at Wingers, and that's been pretty much our trip. It was fun, and it's a nice break from the normal day to day routine.
Trying to work on losing weight wasn't easy, and we really didn't do very well. Especially since we've had to eat out for all our meals. Hopefully we can get on the right track starting Monday. I'm pretty sure I haven't lost any weight yet, and I only have 2 1/2 months left to lose my 30 lbs that I want to lose. :)
