Dallas and I decided we were going to treat ourselves to some new bikes for the summer. We figure it will be a good source of exercise for us when the weather finally decides to warm up! We have already gone on several bike rides when the weather allows and we absolutely love it! Dallas got a Schwinn hybrid and I got a Schwinn Cruiser (it has gears don't worry) and my bike even allows a basket to be mounted on it so we are looking for a suitable basket for the time being :) We got them at Walmart but for what we were looking for we felt like Walmart had a lot to offer. Dallas bought a car rack for the bikes so we plan on going on bike rides not just in our area!
Last Saturday Dallas and I attended the annual Festival of Colors at the Hari Krishna temple in Salem, Utah. This is the third year for the both of us so we mostly just went to actually throw the chalk, once we did that we were ready to leave. But it still was just as fun making ourselves pretty! Afterwards we went to the Spaghetti Factory which is a tradition for Dallas and his sisters. Last year I went with Dallas after only dating for a couple of weeks so it feels almost like "our thing". The only bad thing about it is the colors were different this year so it was a little harder to get it out of our clothes and bath tub.
Some more updates about Dallas and I are we are counting our calories. We use a website called Livestrong to track them. You track your food intake and physical activity. So far we have both lost about five pounds! But the biggest benefit has been how we have felt! We both just feel so much healthier especially with our bike rides!
