Randomness

We have been staying pretty busy lately with all sorts of random stuff.

Brett always thinks he needs a new gun and is constantly looking. He has wanted a new 223 for a while now, and found one on KSL that was perfect, and for a good price. We have been shooting a few times since then. He is getting quite the collection of guns, and I am really enjoying shooting with him. We want to get our concealed weapons permit, so hopefully soon we will.

For Thanksgiving we were at my Mom and Fred's first (with loads of people), then went to Brett's Parents where it was pretty quiet. I love Thanksgiving, the food is sooo good, everyone goes all out with the cooking, and everything is made from "scratch". Who wouldn't love that?

We got together with a few friends from hygiene school that we don't see often (living farther away puts a damper on our social life). We had a great time and its fun to see them- I miss them all the time.

These are all the crazy girls I went to school with.

On to the 1/2 marathon news....

Becky, Lorrie, and I ran a 5K on Thanksgiving morning in Draper. I was very nervous because I left my house in 16 degree weather and was ready to back out. I didn't, and I finished the race.

I have been working out like crazy (every single day at the gym) and seem to be getting in better shape. 1/2 marathons are 13 miles (a LONG way for me), and the farthest so far I can run at one time is 5 miles (before I feel like I will die). So I guess its coming along, but kinda slow. I got brand new really nice running shoes, which really makes it easier.

I'm aiming for a spring 1/2 marathon, and we've heard of some in San Diego, Vegas, and there's one in Malibu in March (that sounds the funnest). Hopefully my sisters will do it with me!
