long lost blogger

Well hello everyone! Its been a few months. :) So much has happened in the last 5 months. 

December 2012
We sold the  town home and were able to buy a cute home in Layton. We were able to move in 2 weeks before christmas ( on my birthday). It was a stressful road but we are so happy to be here in Layton. Many people ask why Layton?  My response is usually why not?? We prayed long and hard and we feel that we are here for a reason and this place is truly for us. We love the ward! It is 100% better than the ward in West Jordan. People know my name!!!! And I have made lots of friends.
       We added a new little ( not so little) dog child to the mix. His name is Bo. He is a black lab. We love him.  Its okay if you think we are crazy because I know were are crazy. :) Riley is still working for  Select Health and I am still working at IMC. We are able to carpool everyday which makes things very nice. 


January/February 2013 

    We welcomed in the new year! The only thing I can think about for January and February is SNOW SNOW SNOW and more SNOW!!! Can you say 3 feet? Yes I know we live in Utah but come on! That stuff was crazy! But I still love living so close to the mountains! I wouldn't change it even if I could. 
   This month also included 2 visits to the insta care. Not the greatest moments in my life. Stupid asthma! Thanks to the best husband every who took good care of me. He was always there to pick me up off the floor when my lungs shut down. Yes I am dramatic. They didn't really shut down. duh. But almost. 

March

    We Ran the Red Rock Relay Dixie. 70 miles of pure fun! The team members were Me, Riley, Katee, Meredith, Landon, and AC. We had some much fun!  Did you ever take me for a runner? Because I didn't. The legs of the race that I took charge of were 1 and 6.  3.7 and 7.3. It was a challenge but I loved it.  My last leg was so amazing! I started at the end of snow canyon  and ran my self crazy all the way to dixie rock and then  down to a park that is by the temple! (For those of you that are familiar with St. George.) My whole family came and supported us as we ran from 7:45am-6:17pm. They are all supportive and loving! Thanks again family. Maybe one day I will post pictures.  If you are ever interested in running stop thinking and just do it. You will learn to love it. 
      March madness also started for college basketball... We started out well But the ship sunk for us. Funny story. . . Me and Riley pick the same bracket every year. We are both to competitive for are own good. At least we know our weaknesses right? RIGHT!!! 
Bo at this point is 3 times as big as Fez. They love to play and most days it scares me so bad. I know one day I am going to look out the window and Fez is going to be a chew toy to Bo. But until then I let them play! Speaking of outside, WE. LOVE. HAVING. A. BACKYARD. It has been so amazing. I can't wait until the summer when we can have a garden and spend every evening outside. 


April

Well here we are on the the 8th of April. Happy 1 year and 7 months of being married. The 4th marked 2 years of being engaged... Yeah you all think I am cool for remembering all these dates?? Don't get to excited that is all I remember. haha. 
    The saying April showers bring May flowers is coming in to play. Tonight we are stuck inside while we wait out a rain and windstorm. The Joys of Davis County. 

Well those of you that are still reading... Thank you!  I am going to try and do better and maybe I will even post some pictures soon. But until then. . . .Have a great night!

  2. Hooray for an update! It's fun hearing what you've been through the past few months. I'm glad you are enjoying Layton and having a backyard! I miss having one. Hopefully soon. :-) Sorry to hear about being sick - no fun. Great job on the running - I never pictured you to be a runner but am inspired that you are doing it! You are amazing.
