Picnic & Peter!

We had off and on raindrops all weekend. BUT, it didn't stop us from going to the Stake Family picnic and the Peter Breinholt concert at the Waterfall Amphitheater at Thanksgiving Point!

"Ladies Who Sweat'!

Today I ran a MARATHON... a marathon relay at the River Front Parkway in South Jordan. Four friends & I, each ran a little over 5.2 miles to complete the full 26.2! It was a lot of fun, but cold, extremely entertaining & well worth getting up at 5:30am to mingle, laugh & sweat with these women.

The orange shirt for participating.

The "Ladies Who Sweat"... Anna, Sommer, Amber, Becca & Cherie.

Happy my leg of the race was over!

We beat our goal of FOUR hours just under a minute and a half!

Labor Day weekend Recap!

We did no "Laboring" all weekend long... we hit up Swiss Days in Midway, a birthday party at the pool, walks around the neighborhood, watched college football on TV, enjoyed classic 80's movies when the kids went to bed, carousel rides at the mall, breakfast at IHOP & ice cream sundaes while visiting-playing with the MacFarlane cousins! Wish we had these "no Laboring" weekends more often.

We woke up Monday morning with snow on the mountains!
