Fair week- Friday

Thursday night we all went camping down in the canyon. We had had hamburgers and hot dogs earlier then went to set up our tents. Some had a DVD player, or a ipod to watch a movie, I read Ramona to Cambria. Early in the night we had a big thunder and lightening storm good thing our tents were water proof.



The next morning we were all chipper and excited for our big breakfast. Mom and Dad brought the food down and we all cooked bacon, eggs and pancakes!

Our happy little camping family!!


Cambria did not like the thunder storm and cried and wanted to go back to grandma's, Audrey thought it was funny. They both slept pretty well through the night as we all shared a queen air mattress. Cambria doesn't wake up very early here she is still sleeping!

Saturday- Fair week

Our second year tradition of doing the Grace Caribou County 5k. This year we got Kristin to join us, we'll see who we can get next year! It was a lot better this year because it wasn't raining!! I did my best 5k time so far 32 min. My next goal will be 30 min.

Spudman 2010

This year was way fun!! We had two teams again a daddy daughter, me, dad and Meagan, and the niners with Tim and Neal.
Neal and Dad getting us to the water on time and getting themselves back to their bikes.
Tim and I bought wetsuits this year and loved them!! It was so cold that morning and our feet were freezing on the grass, we were soo worried what the Snake River was going to feel like, but when we got in we were surprised at how warm it was!! Tim finished in 19 mins and I was 26 mins.

Tim getting ready to run once Neal comes in from his 25 mile bike ride. Tim will be off running 6 miles!
Neal coming in from his ride. He finished in 1 hour and 6 minutes!


Hanging out waiting till our other teammate (dad) comes in on the bike.
We actually missed dad coming in on his bike and he had to call and see where his runner was. He was smokin' fast for his first year! He finished in 1 hour and 20 minutes!!

A well deserved hi five from one biker to the next!
Tim finishing his awesome run in 56 min.

The Ninners, they placed 2 out of 5 teams in their age group.

Meg had a great run she did 1 hour and 5 minutes!
We placed 10th out of 13 in our age group. We are so going to come back next year.

5 of us participated this year and had a great time! We'll see who we get out next year. Launi for sure!!

Dad's patio

While I was in Idaho for two weeks I got to help my dad put pavers on his patio. It is right up my alley cause I love watching hgtv and diy network and wanting to try some of the things they show. Also it's great to try out my dad's awesome tools like the skidster! It was fun to drive similar to their lawn mower but the controls for picking up the pallets were a little tricky.

We had some great help from Cali, Paige and Ryan. They would bring the cement pavers (which were super heavy) and I would arrange them in a non pattern. It was a lot like playing tetris!!

4th of July fun on the 5th

We had a way fun time this year entering most of the grandkids up for the Soda Springs fun run before the parade. They all did great and had fun and said they would do it again!!
Later that day we all went down to the canyon and had hamburgers and hot dogs. I got the kids to put on their fun run shirts so we could take a picture.
On the 4th we went to Burley for Cashe's blessing then came back to Nick's house for fireworks it was a way fun time!

markers

What is up with this kid and markers. Anytime she finds some she markers all over her body!

A fun two weeks at Grandma's

We went to the free kids lunch at the church pavilion.
Kade got to come stay the night at Grandmas with Cambria for his first sleep over ever. They were both great and had such a fun time. (and it kept cambria busy and out of my hair!)

We went over to Laura's to run in the sprinklers and jump on the tramp. One of my favorite things to do when I lived there

The kids love the new trampoline and had such a fun time. It is soo fun when there is a sprinkler underneath!
Another sleepover at Grandma's the kids watched a few movies and got starbursts from grandma! Such a fun two week for all the cousins!!

Ragnar Wasatch Back 2010

Yes I did the Ragnar Wasatch Back. What was I thinking? I'm really not sure. I committed last fall and when spring came and the day of the race came closer I was really wondering what I had done!






I got to choose between 3 different legs and so I chose to be runner #3. My first 2 legs weren't too bad they were rated moderate. The first was 4.9 the second 5.6. That ended Friday for me and my group of 6 went to find somewhere to sleep. We started the next day around 5:30 after our other van of 6 was through running for the night.

My third run was rated hard and boy oh boy was it ever!! It was a MOUNTAIN and 7.9 miles.!!! I had people passing me jogging and I mentally told them I hated them. What where they doing jogging up a mountain? I did cry during this last leg, mainly cause I needed my support team more (they thought I would want some space and not be pressured up the mountain). But I made it and I can say I did the Ragnar! I completed 18.4 miles and our team did 188.2 miles from Logan, Utah to Park City, Utah!! We are sooo awesome!


We all got to cross the finish line together, it was a great feeling of accomplishment!!!
