The Loves of My Life!


Saturday Nate and I had some fun! In the morning Nate took the kiddos, and I ran my 10K up in SLC. It didn't go great. It was OK, but still WAY slower than I was hoping. There was a pretty strong wind that day, and I wasn't feeling so great, but all those are are excuses. I just ran slow. I will do better next time! The day got much better after that though. Katrina came over and Nate and I hiked to the Y. It was so much fun. There was snow on the trail, so we kind of tried to "ski" down.


Nate bringing the winter Olympics back to Utah. (annoying note: when we lived in Bellingham the Olympics came to Utah, and when we come to Utah the Olympics go to Bellingham (well, just north of Bellingham. Holy super-unlucky Batman) After the hike we ate and went bowling. I am the worst bowler ever. I officially hate it. I may have gotten a 44. There I said it.

Because Nate and I are not eating sugar, (Nate hasn't had a treat since August, and me since October!) I found a great recipe for a sugar-free (no artificial sweeteners because they are worse than a sardine wrapped in a slice of wonder bread) apple pie. It looked a little weird, but it tasted pretty good, and made a great V-day treat!

Also, I swear that despite Link's hair Nate is his father, and NOT Conan O'brien.

Reid sure is a character. He has been saying some awesome things lately. Here are just a few:

ME: Reid please go blow your nose.
REID: (loud sigh as he slowly makes his way to the bathroom with his hands on his head) Mom You're driving me crazy.

ME: Reid it's time to take a bath.
REID: Yea, because I stink. My bum bum stinks!!! (loud laugh)

There were so many more that I wanted to write, but I forget them now. I guess I need to be better about writing them down when he says them...he cracks me up just about every day.


Little Linkers has also learned how to crawl up the stairs. Time to bust out the baby gate and work on doing some high stepping!

My three loves!

I am sorry the race did not go as planned and hoped, but that means there is way for improvement! Good job, anyway. I am glad you hiked the Y. So fun! And Karl told me about the apple pie. He said it was great. I might have to get your recipe. See you soon!

The pictures on the mountain are beautiful. What a fun day!

Just completing a race is impressive regardless of the time. I'm just starting to run it's tough!
