Go Utes baby!!

Last week was the first Utah football game of the season. To say my husband was excited would be and understatement. He loves this day more than Christmas. I think he had been counting down for four months. He went all by himself and bought Avery this shirt because, "Everyone needs a Utah shirt". I would be lying if I said I didn't love this time of year. I have really started to enjoy the games and they are really fun to go too. 

This girl loves her Utes. She will watch football with her dad anytime her wants her too.

Summer time fun!

Summer has almost come to and end and it makes us so sad. Thank goodness it it followed by Fall! Fall is definitely my favorite season. The leaves changing, cool crisp air, jackets, boots, pumpkin everything!!! 

Here are all the pictures from summer... They are not in order. :) 

Avery at my cousin's baby shower! She wanted to open all the presents. 

Avery and Fez on Fez's birthday. She gave him a new leash for this 4th birthday. 

Hiking Donut Falls with Michon. Avery did pretty well in the Tula. We only had to hold her at the end. 

Fun date of mini golf. 

Avery always wakes up so happy. When she wakes up crying you know she needs more sleep. 




She loves hanging out with gramps.

We spent labor day at Riley's race and then his mom took Avery for the day. We made dinner, took a 3 hour nap and watch a movie. Avery then slept at my parents house. On our anniversary we slept in, went to park city, Riley had school, and then we went to dinner. Very low key and much needed. But oh how we missed our baby girl.

I ran my first Half Marathon! It was so amazing and I am so happy I finally did one! It was a lot of work but so worth it. My time was 2 hr and 40 minutes... Longer than I had wanted but all that matters is I finished. My new goal is 2 hours and 15 mins... NEXT YEAR! 

I had been wanting to do a half  since having Avery. It really helped me to get back into shape and realize that I can still be a good runner. I had been in such a rut of not feeling like myself and run down. I let life get in the way and that shouldn't have happened. 

It feels good to be back! 

Riley helped and trained with me every step. He pushed the stroller everyday and never complained! When I wanted to give up he wouldn't let me. :) 

Thanks Riley, Michon, mom, dad, and Katee for coming to support! Riley's Aunt also ran the race and it was so fun to finish with her. She is AMAZING!!!
