Green Grass is the Best

Guess who has grass? That would be us. After 3 years of dirt, we finally have grass to mow, and water, and keep weeds out of...wait a second, isn't grass supposed to be a good thing? If you want to come see it in person, because you just can't believe it, come on by! Otherwise, you can just check out the pics...

Happy, Happy Birthday Audrey Dear

April 18th was Audrey's 4th birthday celebration. Holy moly, I have a 4 year old...so weird. I know you will all be jealous you missed it...we had a Pretty in Pink Party ladies...and it was fabulous! We all wore our favorite pink ribbons, bows and pearls...followed by a soothing pedicure and manicure...and to wrap it all up, a pinata full of pretty lips (chap stick) and candy. And, we can't forget the awesome princess cupcakes that fabulous Teresa made for the occasion! Audrey had a wonderful time and that's what counts the most! Happy Birthday Audrey!

Running Chicks

We did it! We rule! April 18th, 2009 was the Salt Lake City 1/2 marathon, and Teresa and I finished in 2 hours 19 minutes and 57 seconds. Hooray! Last year when we ran the Bear Lake 1/2, we ran it in 2 hours and 30 minutes...so we beat our time by 10 minutes! I love race day...the crowds cheering you on, the fun bands playing, the finish line enthusiasm...it's the reward for all the hard work. And after all that hard work...here are the top 3 reasons that I'm glad I'm done training:

1. 6am runs were killing me off (as Audrey would say).
2. My appetite is back to normal...in other words, I don't feel like eating a cow every day!
3. My hips don't feel like they are going to break because they are so sore!

I failed miserably at getting pictures...so here's a link to the pictures that they took of us as we were running...that I can buy for a small fortune. I think I might buy one, we'll see...
