Sledding

It has taken me forever to put these pictures on our blog! But as I always tell fellow bloggers, it's never too late to post pictures because everyone still likes to see the pictures regardless of the time. On New Year's Day, the day after Barrett and returned from Hawaii, we went sledding with my family. My oldest nephews are finally old enough not to be scared and to have fun sledding. It was fun! A little shocking after the warm Hawaii weather, but it reminded us of how fun snow can be as well.Korver was so adorable walking stiffly in his snow clothes that I had to take a picture!

Mia did not like going down the hill as much as Caden and Ethan, but she was tough and went down a few times as well. At the end of ride she always said "That was fun!" even though she would run to my grandparents to avoid going up the hill again. It was as if she just knew she was supposed to say that like everyone else, even if she didn't think it was fun :)

Caden and Ethan had so much fun sledding down the hill together! They're getting so old!

Training: Week 1

I decided. I am running the Wasatch Back with my coworkers on June 18 and 19, 2010. 118 miles from Logan to Park City in 24 hours. 12 teammates. 3 legs each ranging between 3 and 8 miles. Wow! I don't exactly know why I want to run the Ragnar, but I do know that it will be a rewarding experience and teach me more about physical endurance than I have known up to this point in my life. I also know it will take a lot of time, motivation, small steps, and finding within myself the drive to continue going. So I started with the training schedule on Monday and have successfully run 15 minutes two days this week, ha ha. Yay! So small in comparison to the big event, but I'm trying to tell myself that I have to start somewhere. I will post throughout my training. Wish me luck!
