Back to School

What a way to start the first day of school. Rain, rain, rain!
This was a hard year for me to send the girls. Lyssa started High School and Erin started her last year of Elementary School. I can't believe how fast time has gone! They both said they loved their classes and Lyssa gets the day off today.

Top of Utah half marathon

Saturday was the day Andrea and I have been training for. I can't believe I made it to the finish line. I would'nt have if Andrea wasn't right next to me keeping me going.

My computer is broken so I borrowed some pictures from Katie's blog. Probably a good thing, they weren't exactly pretty. Look at Andrea go!

Some of our support group that day!
We were so exhausted by the end but seeing everyone cheering us on helped me pick up the pace and even put a smile on my face. Thanks to everyone who came it meant a lot to see your smiling faces!

I hope they call me on a mission

It's official! My mom and Jim received their mission papers and are headed to the MTC Sept. 6th. Luckily for us they are coming a week early so we can visit with them.
Mom, Jim we are so excited for you and thank you for being such great examples to us!

Swimming

This week has been tons of fun! Kira and Maci have been spending the week with us. We have visited the horses and cows numerous times, the girls spent a day at Andrea's playing (Thanks Andrea and Kenz) and yesterday my sister Leigh and I took them to the pool. I was very impressed with Erin and Kira, they played with Ruthie and Maci a lot of the time.

Inception

It's been a while since I came out of a movie theater and said WOW! Well this movie is WOW! This movie kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time! I think I will see it again!

Happy Birthday Nana

Today is my mom's birthday. Happy Happy Birthday Mom!!! We love you and are so excited for you and Jim to start your mission calling. Hope you have a great birthday with Apey and fam.

Eclipse

I completely forgot to post about Eclipse. Heather, Andrea, Katie, Kenz, Lyssa and I went to go see it a few weeks ago. This is my least favorite book so I was not sure what to think. I still am not sure what to think. I am not a big fan of the love triangle, but I did like the fight with the vampires. Not my favorite summer movie. And to make it even a better night, Katie lost her purse somewhere on Hwy 38. Anyone seen a cute little gray purse with flowers and a camera inside? Thank goodness her wallet was not inside!
Sorry Katie!!!
