13.1


I finally ran my first 1/2 Marathon, the Ogden 1/2! We were lucky and last minute got to take Danielle's brother and sister-in-laws spots in the sold out race, thanks!!! My official time was 2:17:00 which was better than I had expected! Danielle, being the amazing runner that she is ran it in 1:50:57!!!
We spent the weekend at an amazing condo in Eden, Ut. with our friends, Danielle and Jeremy along with their 3 kids. There kids are the same ages as ours so it worked out perfect:) We all had a great time, especially the kids!

The kids got to run there very own race (I think it was a little under a mile but after already running earlier it felt like 5)!! We have decided that Cayden will be a receiver one day he is such a fast runner:) When the kids finished they each got a cowbell for their medal.


The kids lived in the hot tub, we had a beautiful view!

The kids loved having a sleepover everynight too!! Cayden actually slept ALL night in his own bed for the first time in 3 years!! I hope he continues this now that we are home:)

Such a fun weekend!!! I didn't want to come home. We couldn't have hit the weather better! You just need a hot tub in your next house so Cayden will sleep through the night. Pitch that angle to Lance! Thanks for bragging about me, its was such a fun race! Till next year...

Congratulations Heather! I tried to get in for the Ogden 1/2 but I was too late. I even sent them an email asking to be put on the waiting list and that was a no way :( Next year I'll have to be a little quicker about registering! I love the Ogden 1/2!
