The Wasach Back!

Yesterday and today Martin had his race. He and 11 other officers made up a 12 man relay team. Together they ran from Logan to Park City for a total of 188 miles. Martin had 3 legs to run. His first was almost 7 miles and the next two were 3 miles each. He did okay coming away with only a few blisters. He didn't get much sleep but has to go to work tomorrow no matter what. The girls and I are so proud of his accomplishment.

10 Year Anniversary

Ten years ago today, Martin and I were sealed in the Dallas Texas Temple for eternity. I have had a wonderful 10 years and I can not wait for the next ten. I love my husband very much. He means the world to me. I am so grateful for a husband who loves and supports me, who loves our children and who is my best friend. Thank you Martin!

Dance Festival

The school year is winding down and with it is all the last minute activities the school plans. On Friday, the girls had their dance festival. The weather was nice and cool with overcast skies. I was well prepared with a camping chair, camera, umbrella(if needed), book, and sunglasses. We walked to school so I did not have to fight over parking with the entire school. I got really good seats next to some friends, right behind the kindergartners. The kids began to bring out their chairs so I went to take pictures and realized that the battery on my camera was dead. (It would not even turn on.) This picture was taken with my cell phone and my friend took some with her really nice camera which I am sure she will email me soon. The girls did really great in their dances. Ashlynn danced the A Tootie Ta and Miley Cyrus's Hoedown Throwdown. Alex danced to Elvira and folk song. She was so surprised that I knew the tune and words to Elvira. We had a lot of fun.

10 Years

Okay, so next week my husband and I celebrate our ten year anniversary. Because of this I have been thinking about the next ten years of my life and where I will be. You think ten years is not that much time but my life will be very changed by then. My oldest will be graduating from high school. My second will be turning sixteen and getting ready to date and drive. (Scary!) And my husband will be only 7 years from retiring. When I think about it, I become very sad just knowing I am only ten years away from being very old.

Locks of Love

Today after school I finally took Alex to get her haircut. She took off 10 inches and mailed it away to locks of love. The donation will be made into a wig for some very sick child. I am so proud of her because I know how difficult it must have been. (I have always wanted to do this but I can not stand for my hair to get very long.) She is a very loving and sweet girl.
