Some weeks just hit differently—and this was one we’ll be talking about for a long time. From a quick but unforgettable Spring Break trip to Moab, to the incredible opportunity to take Emily’s 93-year-old grandma to the Monticello Temple, it was packed with meaningful moments, family time, and a little adventure. Add in some favorite restocks, a few fun finds, and a reminder to take care of yourself, and this week had a little bit of everything.
We had the coolest experience this week getting to take Emily’s 93 year old grandma to the Monticello Temple! And seriously what 93 year old’s do you know are going to the Temple still? That is awesome and I know my kids will always remember this!
We had a really quick Spring Break trip this week, but it was so fun to hang out as a family, see Emily’s Grandma, go to the Temple with her, and hike to Delicate Arch! And then come home to snow and gloomy weather. Utah is so crazy sometimes!
I keep saying it, but the Try Podcast is my favorite part of every week! And we have some GOOOOD stuff coming up that you don’t want to miss!
You all loved my list of things about me you didn’t know so I made a part two! Check it out and let me know if anything surprised you or if you knew everything!

This week we restocked a bunch of our favorites, number one being these tortillas! They are the best and everyone fights over who gets the last every time. Use code MODERNDAD at checkout for a discount!
We got a Clean Simple Eats restock, which was great after our trip to Moab. I love that their protein powders come in travel containers so you can just grab a couple and go. We restocked the Mint Chocolate Cookie protein powder, Strawberry Cheesecake protein powder, the sample sizes or travel packs of protein powder, and Grape Protein Soda, which is delicious! What is your favorite flavor? Let me know in the comments below! And use code moderndad for a discount.
I ran out of my favorite preworkout from Bucked Up. I really like the Mother Bucker, but they have tons of great flavors AND caffeine levels! And you know I have a code for you! Use moderndad20 for a discount!

I went and got my Dexa scan this week at G.O.A.T. Athletic Spa, which is my favorite way to check how I am doing on my weight loss journey. Fun fact we don’t own a scale. I love seeing what a Dexa scan can tell you and it is way more comprehensive than just a number on the scale. And G.O.A.T is doing a 60 challenge that starts April 20th and it is a steal of a deal. Check it out, now is the best time to start your health journey, not because it’s summer coming up and you want to look a certain way, but because now is the best time to take care of yourself!
All in all, it was one of those weeks that reminds you how good life can be when you slow down and soak it in—family time, meaningful moments, and a little fun mixed in along the way. Whether it’s planning your next adventure, restocking your favorites, or taking a step toward better health, there’s always something to look forward to. Thanks for being here and following along, and let me know what you’ve been loving lately!
