My First 5k!

Us crossing the finish line!


Last night at 10pm I ran my first 5k! I went with a few girls from my neighborhood. I love my friends here! They are active and do things together a lot. The 5k was a fund raiser for a girl who died in 2008 in a car accident. She was very active, so they decided to celebrate her birthday every year with a 5k fundraiser for a scholarship fund. It wasn't really a competitive race. There were children running and I don't think there was a prize for placing. I made it in 35 minutes!

I have been going to the gym with my neighbor, Marika Benedict, since I moved here. She has inspired me and helped motivate me to get into shape. I feel so much better about myself and I love working out! I do a spin class twice a week that I totally love!! And she has gone with me a few times to show me how to work out and get results. I really appreciate her help. People would pay to have her train them the way she helps me! Now I just need to stop snacking on unhealthy food, lol!

July 4th and a Baby Blessing

Fireworks at Founder's Park

Trisha, Sadie, Ty and Brandon after the children's parade

Trisha's first time riding her bike in the children's parade in Centerville. She came in last, but she made it the whole way!

Ok, so I took a ton of pictures of Trisha, but she poses so cute!!!

The July 4th weekend was pretty fun! We went up to Centerville, watched fireworks and went to a parade with Jeff's family, and then had my sister's new baby, Jared's, baby blessing. It was pretty fun! And I must say, I love my camera! Enlarge the photos and see how clear they are! Even the fireworks look awesome!

Ty and Trisha were both sick while we were there. Ty had a cold, and at first we thought Trisha had pinkeye until I took her to the doctor and he said she was just so congested from a cold that the mucus was coming out of her eyes. She also had an ear infection. Luckily they were both pretty happy the whole time. Trisha keeps telling me she wants to go to Grandma's house all the time now.
