My Beautiful SIS!!

So my sister, Sarah, won some photo shoot from her friend so I just had to steel these most amazing pics from her to post!! I might be biased being her sister and all, but HOLY COW--isn't she gorgeous!!! I just love all these, I have the most beautiful sisters, they are all so amazing!! Sarah just moved far away(at least from me) I wish I could see her more, she is such an amazing example to me and she is so smart--way smarter than me and she is my younger sister--I know-- hard to believe!! Anyway--I hope she doesn't kill me for posting these, but I keep telling her to forget about taxes(or whatever she does) let's get that modeling career going!!!

LOVE YOU SARAH!!

St. George Marathon

Well--I did it again....I ran my second marathon. After telling myself I would never run another marathon again, I figured the best thing to get back into shape after having a baby would be just that. So the training began and oh how I dreaded it every morning. One of the hardest things to do at least for me, is starting to run again after having a baby. I was soooo out of shape it was pathetic. But after a couple months of figuring out how to run again, I started the training process with my good friend Rachel. She pushed me so hard which is what I needed to even feel like I could run 26 miles. She is crazy, and does everything she does perfect and gives it her all ALWAYS! So the only reason I even started this thing was because of her--Thanks Rachel for keeping me going!! The St. George Marathon this year was the hottest it's ever been, after a mile of the race I was already sweating---not good--when you still have 25 miles to go!! Needless to say the heat took its toll on me, I was just dead. I also had another excuse why I was struggling--I had some problems with the balls of my feet during training, so I ended up getting orthotics about 3 weeks before the marathon(not the best idea--but my feet were killing me) long story short..I should have purchased bigger shoes but I didn't, so I payed for it by running with a jammed toe for 15 miles. I always heard of people losing toenails from running, but never had that problem-well...now I know why. My toenail is still there but don't know how much longer it will be!

We had a goal to qualify for Boston, but after I realized that wasn't going to happen, I set a new goal to beat my first time. Well after I realized that wasn't going to happen either, I figured I should aim to get below 4 hours. So I guess it took me 3 tries to finish. I think my time was 3 hr 56 min. Good enough-I'll take it. And as I said before "I will never run another marathon again"(well unless I have any more babies I guess:)

I think this was the only time I had a smile on my face...and that was because I finally saw my hubby and baby at mile 21---way too long. He said he tried so many times to see us, but there were so many people and cars that he couldn't get anywhere! I was so bummed that I only saw him once--I think I was just really spoiled with my first Marathon in Logan where I saw him at every station. He is so nice to support me all the time, I'm sure that wasn't too easy trying to get around with a baby the whole time. If I didn't see them when I did, I don't know if I would have finished-there's just something about seeing a familiar face after all that way-Thanks Babe!

We did it!!

Brigg was such a good sport, he just smiled the whole time and

especially loved the airplane ride.

Dad's Surprise Party

My Dad turned the big 7 0 in Aug, so all of his kids decided to plan a surprise party for him. Every single one of us were there including all 25 grandkids. It was a huge success--he had no idea!! Thanks to my sister Holly who put together this invite...

Jaclyn's having a BABY!!

We threw Jaclyn a baby shower while she was here this fall, and luckily she had just found out she is having a boy right before. Congratulations Jaclyn--we are so excited to meet the little guy in January!! I think the little girls are way more excited than anyone--well maybe not as excited as Jaclyn, but they were such a big help with all those adorable baby gifts!

they followed her around wherever she went...

Our good friend Lauren Cartwright holding Brigg--he had to get in on all the fun too!!

Sweet little Austyn

Preschool Time...

Charly started her first year of school. She loves every minute of it. She attends Foothills Christian Preschool and has 2 really great teachers--Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Toney. My little girl is sure growing up, before I know it this will be high school--aaaaaghhh!! I'm just trying to enjoy her while I can--please don't grow up too fast Charly!! I love you!

I think all the fun just wore her out--here she is sitting at the counter asleep on the stool. Just seconds before all I heard was "Mom, I'm really tired." Who knows what she'll do when she gets into kindergarten! So sweet!!!
