My Birthday Suprise!

-
The day I came home from Dallas, Texas, was my birthday! My Mom (bless her heart) watched my children while I was away. I called my Mom when I arrived in Salt Lake City to let her know I was home and would pick up my children from school. She told me they had a big surprise waiting for me and if I went into my house without them, to keep it a secret. After hearing this I decided to go get my children from school early.My children were so excited they made me wait outside the house until they got in and then called for me. When I entered they shouted, "Happy Birthday" and there was a cool Happy Birthday Mom banner they had made. They each gave me two birthday cards and specially wrapped presents. The presents were books for me to read to them. My daughter also gave me her flash cards. LOL! They also helped my Mom make a cake and cupcakes. My Mom had ice cream in the freezer waiting for us too! It was fun to see my children so excited to celebrate my birthday!

My 1st Half Marathon of 2013!

-

I ended 2012 with a GAIN (weight that is) but I started 2013 with a BANG and ran a half marathon yesterday (well 15.1 miles actually)! And my children both ran a 10K (6.2 miles). I am so proud they run with me. The race was inside the Olympic oval which was fun to see. I love my BLING (below). My next half marathon is in 19 days! It will be a FUN run and I cannot wait to run it. I ran 6 half marathons last year and I hope to run even more this year. I ran 2 miles more than a half marathon because the line to turn in the timing chip was long. Funny thing about it is my friend knew she was two laps behind me. Because I kept running so did she. She was so mad when she found out she could have stopped earlier.  After the race my daughter passed out cold. I think she is ready for a day of rest after 3 days of snowboarding and a day of running.

Fun in Florida at Walt Disney World!

My children and I spent nine days in Florida at Walt Disney World with my best friend. We had fun, but it is good to be back in the dry heat! My children and I cannot stand the humid weather! The last time I was in Walt Disney World was 15 years ago. I loved it. I decided it is far too big of a place when you have small children. Disneyland is so much better for the young ones because it is smaller.
