Girls Weekend!

My cousins, Alicia and Crystal, have an apartment up in Ogden, so I went up there for the weekend and we had great time hanging out and having fun!
Crystal and Alicia giggling as we're playing cards - we were ALL laughing sooo hard! We played '1st to 13', Pictionary, Cranium, Rummikub and laughed the whole time. Crystal made us a gourmet dinner and then we watched The Scarlet Pimpernel after enjoying milk and oreos, and chocolate. Crystal had to work on Saturday, so we all slept in till about 10 (it was wonderful!) and then Alicia and I played Xbox and lounged around, listening to the BYU game till Crystal got off work. Then we decided to take a hike up behind Weber campus.

Along the trail that we took, they had signs for different exercises you could stop and do. So, me, being goofy, thought it would be funny to stop and get pictures of us doing the exercises. Towards the end of the trail, we looked at the sign and realized the copyright was like 1975.....too funny!

Here's a picture of me showing the "sit and reach" exercise

Me and Crystal demonstrating the "hop-kick" exercise

Alicia demonstrating the "hand-walk".....this one was waaay hard, and the railings were coming loose, so not the safest!

After our strenuous work-out we went to Beus Park and had a picnic dinner. There are ducks and geese (I think that's what they were) that love to have you feed them, so we fed them bread and then Sunchips once we were out of bread. Most of them didn't seem to like the Sunchips, but they went crazy for the bread.

Ducks and other large creatures - as soon as we threw one piece of bread, they all started swarming us!!

This guy was kind of ugly - and they were very loud when they started squawking!

It was a really fun weekend and now that I know where they live, we'll have to make it a regular weekend thing as often as we can. Thanks for a great weekend girls!!

That looks like fun! Although, I don't know about stopping to do exercises when I am already hiking. That seems a little crazy to me.
