St George

Last weekend me, Lorrie, and Becky went to St. George to run a 10K race at Snow Canyon. Many of you know I have been training for a 1/2 marathon to run sometime this year (Im chicken and haven't put a date on it yet:)

My "training" for my 1/2 marathon has slowed down a little because I got burned out running on a treadmill with the weather and I started doing other things. I have also found out that running isn't my "thing" and is very hard for me. After the 10K I found a lot of blisters and my feet hurt the worst- I bought a pair of "nice" running shoes recently, they they aren't working for me.

It was fun to have a girls trip, even though it wasn't a long one.

There is nothing like eating Taco Bell at midnight at the hotel the night before the race!

This is us before the race

Ugggh, the crappy rollaway bed I slept on- I think my back still hurts. It's funny how the older you are the pickier you are with your sleeping accommodations.

A couple weeks ago my Grandma Fox passed away. Because of our Mexico trip we weren't able to make it to the funeral. I am happy for her because after 88 years I think she was ready for a reunion on the other side. Love you Grandma.

Mexico was AWESOME!!!!! My computer is getting so slow at posting pictures that I'm getting lazy at adding them. I will post some pics of Mexico soon.

Apparently while we were down there there was a lot of violence in the border towns and people were getting killed. ??? After we got back I heard all these warnings about traveling to Mexico but we had no problems!

February Things

February came and went very fast for us. We have been staying very busy and enjoying ourselves, as always.

At the first of Feb we went down and stayed at Brett's grandparents place in St George and we had a great time. It rained and rained the entire time. We did a lot of driving around and even went to Zion's (where it snowed on us). Our golf clubs we brought didn't get used at all.

Fire Danger? I think not

At Zions

Even though it was raining, we went on a fun hike in Zions. I must admit it was the perfect time to go there because we were about the only ones there.

At the end of our hike overlooking all of Zions

We stayed in St George and watched the Super Bowl. We love it down there and would someday love to live there.




Valentine's Day cookies are the best. Lacy and Macy are doing a great job making them

My wonderful husband got me some very nice roses.

UDA conference is in Feb. My office stayed in SLC for a few days to attend all the lectures, etc. It was fun to get to catch up with old friends- some I used to work with, school buddies, and current coworkers.

Brandy, Mandy, Tayor, Me, and Stef

I am very excited to have Feb behind us, we are looking forward to Spring and all its fun activities. March will be very busy for us. I am going to Mexico, St George (for a 10 K race), barrel races and ropings, and then camping at the first of April.

We are doing very well and feel very fortunate in our lives and look forward to what this year will bring us.
