Bryce Canyon Half Marathon

Well I can actually say I did it. I ran 13 miles today and I feel great! (tired but great) Let's not anybody (Amanda) get any big ideas, I am not running a marathon I think a half was good enough for me. I am one of those people that would always say, why in the heck would anyone ever run that far? Well there you go I am one of those people. Lets just say the morning was beautiful and the canyon at 6:00AM was gorgeous. It was so fun to run with friends and to have this experience. We will have to see what is next? I am so happy that my dad was able to come. At first I was really sad that he was the only that was going to be there to cheer me on but it ended up being a good thing. He was a GREAT cheerleader and he even jumped in and ran a few feet with me towards the finish line. Thanks dad I love you it was so fun to spend the day with you! After getting some much needed rest I can acutally say that I would do this again. Thanks to all you amazing friends that inspire me to do this, I have loved every minute of it.

4th July!

What a fun time we had celebrating the 4th of July and Dad and Mom's 25th wedding anniversary. It was so much fun to get all the family together. Garett and Andrea we missed you and the kids. The grandkids all had such a good time playing together at the park and riding on Bucks float for the Cedar City 4th of July parade. I hope you guys don't mind the pictures that I posted I think they are all so cute. I think we all ate enough food for a month, we had yummy Cookies, all the watermelon anybody could ever want, LOTS of pink bubble gum (thanks Erin that was a fun treat) and for Darren we will continue to have carmel poppcorn at all family events. I think the kids liked making snowies the best so thanks Grammie! Thanks to everyone for helping put this together for Dad and Mom. I know my family had a great time!

Crackers?

So this is to anyone out there who has a 2,3,4 maybe even 5 year old that might like to lunch a bunch on something that comes out of our noses! Jaci had her little friend Lauren over today and we are sitting at the kitchen table eating lunch. We were talking about playing babies, princess and cooking in the kitchen. Jaci decides to pick her nose and eat it. So me being totally grossed out says Jaci don't pick your nose and then eat your buggers that is discusting. She says to me mom they are not buggers they are crackers! (with little attitude and rolling eyes and everything) There you have it my little 4 year old, she is a precious gem. Love you Jaci.

Jaci's preschool Graduation

1st year of preschool done only 14 more years of school left and then it is off to the big stuff! We are so proud of Jaci she loves to learn and keeps asking me when school is starting again. Is it school day? We have a fun summer planned and hopefully I will be able to wear her out with lots of activites! She is a little spit fire and she definantely keeps me on my toes.

Present Time

You seriously would have thought we were having Christmas! Liv got so many presents thanks so everyone that came to her birthday! Can we love bubble machines! It is hours of entertainment for kids, as long as there is bubble slime stuff in the machine it will spit out the bubbles! LOVE IT! Gazillion bubbles they are the BEST!

Livi's First Birthday

It is about stickin time we get some new pic's put up on our blog! I am sick of looking at that discusting triathlon picture, I am sorry for torturing everyone for so long with that. Ok so as you look through these pictures yes Livi's cake was bigger than she is, hey it is a cake for my princess! She was not to sure about digging into that thing. Oh and the white trash onesie that is kind of how we roll these days! (we couldn't get her Bday outfit dirty) We had a good time and we are so happy that the Jacoby's were here to celebrate!

Triathlon

So I really can't believe I am publishing these picutres on my blog. So Shandie is the one that started this whole triathlon thing. It was not a full tri but it was perfect. We (well I know I had) so much fun. I can't wait to sign up for another one it is kind of addicting. I am so proud of you Shandie and Brooke you guys did so GREAT! If anyone want to join in you are more than welcome, the more the marrier. This was in St George last weekend. We swam 200M biked 5 ml and ran a mile. I came in 4th in my age group. Thanks everybody for all your support it was fun to have so many friends and family there to watch.

Sunny St George

Ok so it has been a little cold still in Cedar City, so we went down to St George with Amanda and her kids. Oh my goodness it was such a beautiful day. Jaci and Ashtyn swan in this jacuzzi for ever they had so much fun. Krew and Livi just watched and the girls splashed them they thought it was great. Jaci is ready to go back. Thanks for the time Amanda!

Lovin Arizona

These pictures are long over due. We went to AZ to see Garett and Andrea. The kids had so much fun playing together. The weather was beautiful. We went to the park of coarse Jaci just meets all kinds of new friends. At one point I couldn't see where Jaci was playing and then she pulls up in this hot wheels jeep with these little girls that we don't know. My litte chatter box is full energy and loves to make frinds wherever we go. Shaelon wanted to go to this place called Makudas Island, it is an indoor tree house and you can crawler all over these tubes and come down this huge spiral slide it was so much fun and the kids loved it.

Love my Shades!

This last weekend we went to Sandy, UT and saw some friends, Lori put these sun glasses on Livi and she thought she was pretty dang cute! Thanks for having us Scott and Lori we love you guys!

MMMM I love BEETS!

I don't know what it is, it must be in the blood! I think I might have a picture just like this from when I was a little girl! Livi ate and ate beets she absolutely loved them. I could not get them down her fast enough! I better be careful she might turn PURPLE!

PLAYTIME

Jaci and Livi LOVE to play! Someday Livi is going to big enough to torture her sister. Can you believe it Livi is crawling all over the place!

Hair CUT time!

Holy cow long over due for a hair cut. This is the before!

Jaci loves getting her hair washed she said the squirty thing tickled her head!

Nice hair!

Oh so cute! Thanks Amber for cutting all that baby hair out! Now maybe my hair will grow like Rapunzel!

You mean balls are suppose to go down here?

So we went to McDonalds with some friends, Jaci and Daxton decided to climb up this thing. I think balls are suppose to be thrown in those big holes and they come out the bottom! Well needless to say the climbing fun ended quickly and the McDonalds guy came and locked the door. Gosh where in the heck these kids parents?

Who wants to go bobing?(bowling)

Ok so I have not updated my blog for a while. No, I am not a fair whether blogger I have just decided that yall have too much time on your hands. Get ready for picture over load!

Jaci had such a good time bowling. Mike and I could not figure out why she kept calling it bobing but oh well she did a great job and we had lots of fun!
