Am I excited...

Am I excited, well I thought I was. I found out last night that I got into the St. George marathon, yeah! I found out today that everybody knows that you book your hotel before you find out because if you don't all the hotels will be full (yes even the really yucky ones). You'd think I would have thought of that with 7200 marathoners, plus all of the spectators :( I guess you live and you learn and bring your own tent.

Life

Things have been very busy lately and blogging has not been on my priority list for a while but here is a little update on us. I am still working, I have 5 days left of work and I am really excited for it to be over. It lasted a bit longer then I thought it would but it has made me appreciate how lucky I am to be able to stay home.
My first triathlon of the year (9th total, I think) The Women of Steel is in 2 and 1/2 weeks. I am excited for it, I am doing with some really great friends and it that makes it even better. I haven't been training as hard I usually do for a race with working and all, but over all I feel very prepared. I won't be breaking any records but I will have fun none the less.
I put in for the St. George marathon this year and I think I find out the beginning of May. I am not quite sure why I am trying to get into this race, I'm not a good runner by any means. I guess it is just one of those things I would like to prove to my self I can do and check it off my list.
Life is going pretty good right now, I just wish it would slow down sometimes. My kids are doing awesome just growing like weeds. Jaxon is almost done with Kindergarten, I think he miss school alot during the summer. Taylin is my sweet little princess, always busy as a bee getting into everything. Kinley is walking really well and starting to talk a little bit. I feel really blessed to have such a wonderful little family.

The many faces of Kinley

Kinley is almost 14 months and cruising around the house. When I look back at pictures of her I can't believe how fast she is changing. She has such a sweet personality, and fun expresssions.

My sweet little Taylin turned FASHIONISTA

I thought I would post some pictures of Taylin, she is always making me laugh. The first thing she does when she gets up in the morning after she wakes me and Dave up of course is go get dressed. She loves getting dressed so much in fact she usually does it several times a day. Her favorite thing to wear is skirts and dresses because they are fancy, she says.

Winners Circle

Merilee posted this on her blog and I won! I am excited to be getting something handmade from her.(FYI Merilee I will accept hand-me-down clothing in place of homemade gift). Now hopefully I can be crafty enough to make something great for my winners. This is how it works... I will randomly pick THREE bloggers that leave a comment on this post (I have already chosen the numbers), which then entitles you to a handmade item from me. If you are a winner, you must post this challenge on your blog, meaning that you will Pay It Forward, creating a handmade gift for THREE bloggers who leave a comment on YOUR post about this giveaway! You have 365 days to make/ship your items to the winners. And, remember: It’s the Spirit and the Thought That Count! This especially applies to me, has anyone ever seen anything I have made??? Probably not! If you are not one of the THREE I randomly choose on this post, you can still play along. Please take the button and post it on your blog; start your own Pay It Forward chain, and encourage your blogging friends to do the same! Good Luck, and yes I will feel bad if nobody comments :)

Invitation

This is a special invitation to come visit me and check out our swimsuits. As some of you know I just started working part time selling swimsuits at Costco roadshows. The company I work for is called Diviine Modestee, they have lots of really cute, good quality, modest swimsuits and the best part is they have contracted with Costco to sell them for 1/2 the price that they go for in their store. We will be at the Lehi Costco starting Thursday (tomorrow) we will be there for 10 days then we move on to another Costco. We will be going to almost all the Costco's in Northern Utah. Anyway, I will usually be there from 2:30 until close so come check us out or just come say hi to me. Here is the website to check out the swimsuits, they have mix and match tops and bottoms so you can design a swimsuit the is just right for you--- http://www.diviinemodestee.com/divinitasole/index.php then click on "design your perfect suit", on the next page click on "click to behold". You can see pictures of the swimsuits on models if you click on the button at the bottom.

10 pounds lighter

Okay so really I am really 10 inches lighter, but it feels like 10 pounds. I cut just enough to give to locks of love so be on the look out for a child with hair that looks suspiciously like mine. It is fun to be able to give to such a wonderful cause, besides I love short hair it is so freeing.



This is the pictures from snowshoeing last weekend. I was the only girl but it was still really fun. In the first picture we were trying to be funny but it didn't work out as we had planned. I hope I get to go at least a couple of more times this season, with the snow coming this week that just might happen. I am the one in the green hat (if you can't tell).
