2010 Fit for Life

This past weekend my friend from work Amanda and I ran together in the 5k race Fit for Life. Granted it was only a 3.1 mile race, but it was Amanda's first race and we wanted to run it, she ran a little harder and faster than I, and I could have probably pushed my self harder than I did, o well there is always next time I did finish at about 33 min and 20 sec.
I was not gutsy enough to run the 1/2 marathon like you Teri!! Congratulations by the way for running that hard and finishing, that is amazing. One of these days I will get to that 1/2 marathon just not quite yet! I will be running in my first 10k in October with my husband, he is a great person to run with because he pushes me to my limits which is a good thing. This will be the next step towards that 1/2 marathon. I also wanted to congratulate Jenny for the hard work that you did in your triathlon, that is also amazing. I haven't even had kids yet and I can barley do a 3.1 mile race. Good job to the both of you!!

4th of July scare!!

4th of July weekend this year was spent in McCall enjoying some time with my husbands family. We all had a blast and a real nice sunburn to go along with it. Ben had to work early Monday morning so we had decided that we were not going to stay for the fireworks over McCall lake. So we headed back down the mountain probably just before 6:oo p.m. For the 2 days that we were gone one of Tom's friends had agreed to to watch over our dog and our house.

As we were coming up Horseshoe bend hill, we get a text message from Tom saying that when Ryan (his friend) came over to feed the dog, he was missing and not at the house. Right after Tom's text, Ryan had called to tell us the news that our dog was missing, and that he had called our aunt Angel, and our neighbors that know our dog pretty well to see if the would help find our little escape artist. We were so grateful for all of those who came out to help found our little doggie. After 2 and half hours of driving around and asking everyone and anyone in the neighborhood if they had seen him?, where did he go?, when did you last see him? Angel finally spotted our dog in someones back yard hanging out with two other doggies. Boy were we happy to have finally found him. If we had not found him the night of the 4th we probably never would have found him. When we did finally find him he was really tired and soaking wet, he being a lab he can not get enough of the water, somewhere on his little journey he found the water and jumped right in.

Thanks again for all those who took time out of there 4th of July activities to help find our furry little friend.
