Courage 4Kuu

Instead of the annual turkey trot we did the Courage 4Kuu run.  Kuu is fighting liver cancer and is so amazing.  It was a great morning to get out there and support someone so amazing.   Jeannie even did the race on her due date!!

Thanksgiving

The day started with a workout. Some people went running and some to crossfit.  Then we had a big brunch at my house with homemade cinnamon rolls and a burrito bar.  Then dinner at my parent's house.  Then the annual arm wrestling competition followed by deserts at Kami's house.  I love Thanksgiving.  I love spending time with family hanging out and chatting and eating and relaxing.

Lizzy's First Run

Today was my first run in over 2 weeks.  I decided to take it easy and only part of the miles with the girls.  I ran 5 miles and took Lizzy for her first run.  She was a little crazy at the start but ran like a champ and easily ran 5 miles.  She loved being out front.  If people ever ran in front of us she would pull me faster until we lead the way.  She is so crazy.

Another Swimmeet


We live at the pool and I couldn't be happier.  I love watching these boys swim.

Balloon man says "can I make you anything?" 
We say "no thanks" 
Sophie says "we have no cash" 
and then she gets a butterfly. 
Talk about embarrassing.

Catching Fire

I was very excited for this movie to come out and even more excited for a fun afternoon with family!

Student of the Week

Sophie has been praying and praying to be chosen as student of the week at school.  I told her if she behaved she would get chosen (even though it's not behavior based and every one gets picked before the end of the year).  She was so very excited.  I got to go to school with her and read a book to her class.  And she got to bring a show-n-tell.  She brought her baby picture book with all her newborn pictures. She loved talking about when she was born and showing her pictures off.

Dance party


Today was a day that needed to end with a dance party.  I taught the kids "the chop" and we danced until we were all worn out.

Love Notes

When Todd and I were dating and first married he always left me little love notes.  He would write them on anything - including napkins.  The other night I opened my journal and was looking at little notes and things I wrote about Todd when we were dating.  I sure do love him!

Girls Weekend

I love the girls I run with.  I just love them.  We have so much fun together.  This year we got matching poop socks from Heather and Lyke watches from our "sponsor" Board Co.  We had a blast running the Snow Canyon half-marathon and then shopping, eating and visiting the Temple.
