My New Best Friend!!!




So I remember one of my friends, Adam, blogged about his Garmin he uses in his car one time. I thought it was a little weird but I would soon realize why he loved it so much. My new best friend, George, is a Garmin as a watch. Seriously people this is a dream come true. There is NOTHING like it when you are running.

I have been training for this marathon on April 18, 2009, which NO ONE in my family will be attending, I mean it is 26.2 miles but whatever right? I guess my parents think it is more important to visit my siblings in DC.... Don't worry I am slowly getting over the fact that this will be my second Marathon and only my sister KA has seen my cross the finish line. So if any of you want to make a trip to good old Salt Lake, in the Gate way, to witness the completion of the marathon, come on April 18 around 11:00, that is around the time I am looking to finish.

I know my cute friends will be there so I am REALLY happy I have them. but I do know for sure my new best friend George, (the Garmin) will be there. Seriously George is who I spend the most time with. We are together every single day. So naturally I had to give him a name. He is a boy because I want to impress him and run faster of course.

George does EVERYTHING!!! He tells me how fast I am going, how far, and the time. Seriously a dream come true for a runner. George also keeps a history of what I have ran and tells me the average pace. He is AMAZING!

Last week George and I got into a fight. He was mad at me because I let him charge for to long. So he wouldn't turn on. I really needed to hang out with George because I had to run 11 miles and with out him it is very hard. George wouldn't turn on so I had to run by myself. I was SO thankful for George after that. I realized I rely on him so I have to take really good care of him. The next day George turned on, we have been running ever since. Maybe even a little bit faster because he knows how grateful i am for him now!!!! George and I will see you on April 18!!!

Are you serious ABC?






So every Monday night for two hours of my life, along with the rest of America, I have been falling in love with the Bachelor, Jason. He is so cute and it has been fun to follow him in his journey to find a wife. I was TOTALLY a Melissa fan. I was SO happy when he picked her, but of course ABC has to do the after the final rose right after he picked her.

Jason, stupidly picked Molly. I have nothing against Molly because if he wants to follow his heart he can, but to do it on NATIONAL TELEVISION that is where I have a problem. I was SO proud of my girl Melissa. She totally stuck up for herself. she brought up excellent points and he had nothing to say.

Molly was an idiot for taking him back. I don't care how in love you think you are with someone if they dump you on NATIONAL TELEVISION you should not want to take them back. Then tonight they are having another after the final rose... Who knows maybe he will go back to Melissa.

All in all i think they show is ridiculous. It is degrading to marriage and relationships but it keeps sucking me in.... Sadly.

parents!



I think I have the greatest parent's in the ENTIRE world. This morning I drove down to Orem at 7 am so I could be a support to my dad. He was released as stake president today. I was so happy I could be there to show him support since I am the only child that lives in Utah I thought it would be good to be there. (I also think I moved up on the list of favorite children, right now Nato is number one because he is on a mission but I think after today I have the number two spot in the bag.) He did an excellent job speaking and I know the stake will miss him.

My mom was serving in his stake in the RS presidency. After the meeting people just kept coming up to say how much they are going to miss them. I was so happy to be there and see how much everyone loves my parent's! I just thought to myself I am the luckiest girl in the world. I don't know I did to deserve my parents but I count my blessing for having them.

After we talked about my FAVORITE subject in the world.... MONEY! I am horrible with money and my parent's were so great to sit and talk with me on how I can improve. They are always so supportive in my decisions. I love you mom and dad. Thank you for being the greatest parent's anyone could ask for! xoxo
