Where did that come from?

I have decided that I am going to run a 5k this spring. Those of you that know me well, know that I despise running. Running = death! I think runners are insane! I think they like to torture themselves. I also hate the jigglee syndrome that accompanies me when I go running. You may ask, "Why are you going to run a 5k then?" Well, I need a challenge, and running equals sexy calf muscles and such. I mainly just want to get in better shape. If I happen to lose some weight along the way, awesome! I have been running lately, and it has gone better than I thought it would.

I am putting this on my blog because it makes it feel more official. Now, that I have told everyone, I can't back out of it.

Molly, if you are reading this, you are running the 5k with me. You don't have a choice. Also, Pearl, if you want to join us you are more than welcome. The date and such will come later after I do some research.

If anyone else wants to join us, you are more than welcome to join in.


This picture is a symbol of my victory!!! Go team!

A New Year

It has been a long while since I have posted. We have had a wonderful Christmas (thanks to everyone) and a happy New Year.

Audrey seems to have gotten smarter over night. She is saying all sorts of things now. For example, "thank you," "duck," "bless you," and many other things. She has started to parrot everything I say too. (I better really watch what I say now. No more cussing and threats;)

I looked out the window the other morning and the snow looked this beautiful orange-pink color. It was extra beautiful that morning. The mountains usually obstruct such sunrises so this was a special treat. I took a picture out the front door, but it didn't do the sunrise justice.
