Christmas 2008

 
Well, we had a great Christmas. Dallynn obviously got a bike. A much needed bike. His old one was too old and didn't have brakes. That is a must have so we bought this Tony Hawk bike for him with gears. Where ever he goes around here he has to go up hills so the gear thing was a must have besides brakes. This was Connelly's first christmas. He didn't understand but it was fun. He got some fun toys. He is practicing walking everywhere. I think he will be walking soon. Holly and I took the kids to Dimple Dell yesterday to swim and Connelly actually took his first steps in the pool. They were real. Holly is my witness. I don't know if the water made him feel lighter and more confident but he did it at least for that moment. He hasn't done it since.
Nate and I have decided to make new years resolutions this year and we are going to try to stick to them. We will officially announce them after we ponder them and write them down tonight. Tonight is the last day in 2008 and it is my Grandma Ruby's 91st birthday. Hope you all have a very happy new year!!!!!

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...

Bad decision

So I wax. Do you? What do you wax? Well, I wax my body, well my eyebrows and girly mustache, not those other body parts they do in "Brazil." Any who..... Today was the day. I hadn't waxed in FOREVER and so I decided I'd take a stab at it. I have been doing my own waxing since I got married, I use to live with this wonderful girl, Jamie, and she was a professional, but I got it free. The friendly roommate discount. She did great. She would spend a good 20 min. or more and wax, pluck, and make me a new girl with definition on the brow line. Well, at first I was horrible and took forever. However, through the years and trials, I have gotten better....UNTIL today. I decided to do it at the wrong time and that was the start of a horrible ending to this sad story. Why was the timing wrong you ask? Well, Connelly was awake and getting into, on, around, and breaking EVERYTHING he could find in the bathroom. (Basically, he was eating my tampons and opening up maxi pads one by...

Half Marathon and Triathlon

Okay so I did it. I'm signed up, paid my freaking $60 to run the Ogden Half Marathon in May of 2010. That is crazy. I hate running. I'm better at running than biking and swimming but I still hate running. I said I will never run a 1/2 and somehow I am doing it. It is because Chari made me sign up. I just can't say no. But I told her that she has to do a triathlon with me. I'm going to train for the triathlon and somehow run also a half Marathon.. Let me be clear to everyone. I will hate it and I will NEVER do a full marathon. So if any of you are out there want to join. COme on. It will be great. I really hope that I don't ruin this 30 almost 31 year old body. I love it right now. I like running my 2 miles and lifting weights and it works for me. I'm in great shape and I feel good. If I run this thing and ruin this great body and knees There will be HELL to pay. I'm just saying it now.
