utah shenanigans (march 2018)

And what else happened in Utah?? 

I can pretty much sum it up with ... Family, Fun, AND Food! Lots and lots of food:/. Yikes!

We were lucky enough to be there for this little cutie's baby blessing.
(family pic on the day of)
Also on the day of the blessing, we had the awesome surprise of running into a super cool friend from our Houston days. He was a teenager then and is now a grown man with a family ... meaning, K and I must be getting old:(.
Blessing-day Bonus ... K managed to get his hands on this stylish ride and went for a nice Sunday stroll;)

We were also lucky enough to do a little shopping ... or at least Joseph did.
Looks like some of us mostly just hung out getting a mall massage. Woo woo!

Here's a brief intermission for the food part. I was seriously not kidding about that!

This is just a tiny sampling of all the eating we did:/ ... 

Chick-fil-A

Cupbob 
(fast-serve Korean food)

Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory
(this place sure ain't kidding around when it comes to sweets)

Sodalicious!! 
Mmmmmm, someone PRETTY PLEASE bring one of these to the PNW
Take a look if you're curious (https://www.mysodalicious.com)

Oh, and Miss Mae's cake shop;). 
Happy b-day Aunt Allie!
I should probably mention that all this eating meant we really needed to spend some time at the local rec center!!

Okay, and back to the trip!!:-)

One day we stumbled across the RC Playground at the Provo Towne Centre, and enjoyed an hour or two there as a family.

But the best part is that we did a lot of hanging out with the cousins (and aunts, uncles, etc.). This is without a doubt the favorite activity of every one of our Utah road trips.

Playtime at the Discovery Park in Pleasant Grove ...
We love us some Darren, Heidi, and co.
K's amazing little sister:)

Hangout time!!
The boys especially liked Big D's basement man-cave;)
But anywhere we go together seems to be never ending excitement
Even here, doing who knows what!;)

Sadly, the trip went by WAY too fast, and it was quickly time to say goodbye and head back home. 

Welcome back to the Evergreen State.

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
