Snow

 It snowed this past weekend and the boys were really anxious to get out there.

Shes 12

 My cutie turned 12 Nov 9th. Shes amazing to me and such a sweet girl! She celebrated with 11 of her favorite friends and cousins. Kristin organized the whole thing. She came up with games and everything. She said it was the most fun she has had. Unfortunately I couldnt be there. Our ward made it to region volleyball. We have such amazing team and they really needed me to be there. So I couldnt let them down. Luckily I have an awesome sister who bailed me out and was able to stay with all the kids to make sure they wouldnt get into any trouble. Overall we took 2nd place out of all the stakes. So not too shabby.Wish I could have been 2 places at once. Happy Birthday to my cute girl!

Magic of a Moment

 So Kristin painted this up one evening to enter in the schools refelction contest. The theme is "Magic of a Moment". She whipped this up the night before the deadline and took in to school the next day and entered it in. She just amazes me, how in the world did I get to have such an incredible little girl? Sometime I want to be her. Ill keep you posted how well her painting does.

End of Summer Things

 The kids started school again. Kristin is in 6th, Tyler in 5th and Camron in 4th.

 The boys competed in the raingutter regatta in August with their boats. Tyler took 1st overall. Camron did well his first runs but overall didnt place. He was a little bummed but still had fun.

 Kristin and I at the boys scouting awards that they do once a month This time Tyler and Camron did the flag ceremony.

 Boys will be boys.

Team Cyclepaths

 At the finish line.......Morgan, Holli, me, Phil and Steve, missing 3 of our team members.



A few weeks ago at our ward campout I was approached to be on a bike relay team with a few of my neighbors. The route goes from Salt Lake to Saint George a.k.a "Salt to Saint" in a 24 hour period. I was reluctant at first but then decided I should do something crazy for once in my life. So the team was gathered the week before and I picked what legs I thought I could do out of the 24 legs. In the end I did 3 legs. The first was 18.2 miles which I finished in 1 hr 4 min. The 2nd leg I did 22.4 miles in 1 hr 7 min. The last leg I did 15.3 miles in 1 hr 20 min. I was soooo done after that last leg. I rode it just after midnight, its was so cold, windy and dark. I'm glad I had a nice bright light to light my way through the darkness though. It was a fun exprience and I would definitely do it again! The group that I went with were so awesome and really good and a lot of fun to be with. Hopefully next year I can do it with David. My poor husband has a bad knee that needs to be looked at. So hopefully by then it will be better.

 Looks like Im not even going anywhere in this pic, but Im going 22 mph here.

 Our team captain Morgan Mathews. He's not giving the peace sign in this pic hes saying we are number 2! 

 We finished 430 miles in 23:23:18. We took 10th place out of 61 teams and 2nd place out of the 8 man relay teams. Woot Woot

 Holli and Jace again

 One of our poor team members biffed it big time the last 1/4 of a mile from the finish line. He was bookin it around a corner goin 45mph. The bike went out under him and he slid across the road all the way to the sidewalk. He got up and handed our tracker to another team member to ride on, then blacked out. His friends took him the the hospital where all they could find after all the tests were just horrid road rashes. Poor guy he was in so much pain when they brought him back to the house, even with the pain meds. Hes a trooper though and will recover with some awesome scars.
