Utah Valley Half Marathon

Okay, I must be tired cause i put these in reverse order. Oh well. I talked Brent into running the half marathon with me and we started training. Me in Utah and Brent in Oregon.
Brent got more comments on his attire then I did on mine. Apparently there are some Ute fans in Utah County... he finished around 2:34 which is awesome for his first marathon. I base that opinion on my first half time being much more then that.
I finished 8 minutes faster then my last Top of Utah half time and was very happy. Running is an individual beat yourself event that I enjoy. the theme of this year's race was Pain you Enjoy.
This is where we saw CJ and he cheered us on. Right after this picture I had to leave Brent or I wouldn't have finished. I know, Im a rotten sister. What can I say, its an individual sport and I was ready to be done with it already!
Here I am the night before pinning my number to my shirt. Neat stuff huh?!

LAKE POWELL


The first weekend in June (my birthday) we went with CJ's cousins to Lake Powell. It was awesome!! Shari, Joel and three of their kids and Mark and Anna and their kids went and we invited ourselves along:) This is CJ totally loving the smooth water. Lake Powell is beautiful.


He also got up on the slalom ski and decided that wakeboarding is his favorite.
The tube is really my thing.
we went on a cool hike in a slot canyon
