Man O Man!!!

Man Oh Man, has it been a long time. Sorry about that all you avid blog checkers. I would like to catch you all up on what is going on in our lives. I think I will start with the most recent and work backward so here it goes.

Congrats to Justin, who finished his first half marathon! We ran the Salt Lake City 1/2 Marathon today and we feel great. (not really) Our motivation for running this race was the Creamies at the finish line. I think we ate three along with 4 cartins on chocoate milk, water, and a banana. Training for the race has taken most of our free time. We did good we both finished just over 2 hours, which I think is great. Our training is not over though, we are training for the Wasatch Back in June. I took a few pictures along the way, and I really think they were quite funny.

Here we are at the Starting Line!

Justin at the Starting Line ready to race! Yes, he is smiling now!

Our Friends!
We will be running the Wastach Back with these guys,
Roney, Todd, me, Justin, Colton, and Cody.
Good Run Guys!

Blue, our new puppy.
Saturday we got a new puppy. His name is Blue and he is alot of work. I don't know whats worse, doggy or baby. At least the dog will grow up faster and we can cage him up and not feel bad. We also have 2 pigs. The kids loved feeding them and watching them eat for about a month but now the coolness has wore off.

Union Station
Scout preschool took a fieldtrip to the Union Station a few weeks ago. I decided to make a day of it and took Easton as well. The kids had lots of fun climbing on the trains.

I was so hoping to be able to run the SLC oh well there is always next year. With mom's passing it through me off the training. I may try for Logan the end of summer. I hear that is a pretty one. Good job guys, it's a new found addiction.

Congrats on the skirt!!!! I'm so jealous! I bet you could even wear it to play volleyball...but then you'd have to wear a tank top with it and grunt a lot.
