What a weekend....

For those of you that go to Utah State or live in Logan know that Jason Sanders throws the best parties in this town. Well this weekend was no exception... This weekend we had a mini festival of colors! It was a celebration for Jon Kidd birth.

This is what we all looked like before the celebration began.... Nice a clean...











And then the COLORS began to fly.....













A success once again. It was a night to remember!!!

We also had a special visitor come up this weekend.... Miss CeLisa Packer. I just LOVE this girl. We just sat around all night and remembered all of our great times when she was in Logan. It hasn't been the same since she left this place. We sure do miss her. It was amazing to have her up here for a couple days!

Duct Tape= BEST TOOL EVER!!!

I would sure like to think so!!! Or so my Grandpa Calder always taught me. I decided to put it to the test. After the Marathon I got really bad chaffing (as shown in the picture below.)




But Randi and I really wanted to go running and I knew it would hurt but it wasn't going to stop me.... Duct Tape to the rescues!!!! We just got some toilet paper and duct taped it to me. Worked like a charm.




Is duct tape really the cure all? I would like to think so...

MARATHON WEEKEND!!!

This weekend was the Salt Lake City Marathon. It was amazing. I slept at Kate and Lisa's house the night before which was so helpful. I woke up at 5 am to meet up with Maridth (KA and MJ's friend from DC). We got up to the starting line. George (my garmin) and I were ready to go. I started about two mins after the official clock. The race was amazing! I loved the course. I saw Randi and Chelsea at mile 20 which made it SO great. Really in a marathon all you want to see is people you know. It made an incredible difference. The only time that was hard for me was mile 24 to 25, all the sudden when you are almost done they just decide to throw an up hill mile on you? what were they thinking? I was not a happy runner during that mile. I finished the marathon in 4:13:39. I was so happy because my last marathon I ran in 4:31:10. I shaved off about 18:10. The best part of the whole race was seeing all my very best friends and sister in law with the nieces and nephew at the end! It just made it all worth it. LOVED my life!

Easter Weekend!



What a great weekend. My sister KA came into town for Easter. I picked her up and i was a little late.... on Thursday night. We came back up to Logan mostly so she could see where I live, go running together, and eat Aggie Ice Cream. The best part of the experiences at Aggie Ice Cream was KA said "can I get an EXTRA large?" the girl looked at here... "an EXTRA large?" She couldn't believe that skinny KA was going to finish and EXTRA large. KA said "I am from out of town... I just don't get this kind of ice cream anywhere?"





We went back down to Orem and stopped by our dad's office. Of course we had to take a picture!!!




My best friend Jena is getting married to my other best friend Shane! This was the first time I got to see the future Mrs. Rowley! What a great couple. Shane is one luck guy!




That night I hung out with some of my high school friends I haven't seen in a long time. Crazy how I have been out of high school for four years now?




Saturday morning we got up and had some quality running time with Dad. this was the last long run until the Marathon next week. We went shopping all day long... KA is just SO fun to shop with. I got a new running outfit for the Marathon. I now don't know what I am more excited for... The marathon or my new running outfit?

Sunday we had such a great time together. We toke some Easter pictures like we use to when we were little kids. It was a great weekend!
