March 25, 2023

This winter just won’t end. So much snow and such a cold March. There’s more snow this year than any other year in my life. But I’ve been busy training for an half marathon so I haven’t even enjoyed the mountain snow. Darren has and snapped this picture of the Timpooneke bathroom. Crazy amount of snow. Also, I have a cold. First one in a very long time and I am so thankful it came this week and not last week. Blessings.

Half Marathon weekend in Moab. Good times - me, Darren, Kenzie, Tanner. We watched some March Madness, played a round of 5 crowns, some ran a long race (cool course running next to the Colorado river with red rock), some played golf, we had a lame burger at Moab Brewery (which was very disappointing since post race called for a burger), went to a bookstore, spent a little time at Arches, had delicious Chinese food at the Moab Food Truck Park, grabbed some Wendy’s Frostys at Frosty o’clock, and hit Island in the Sky on the way home. Lots of laughs and sore muscles and good times.

I’m glad Kenz asked me to run this race with her. Training was good for me, it definitely pushed me, Darren was awesome supportive, Kenz was encouraging, and now I can check off 13.1. And in Moab.

It was a good pi day. Darren received a big award at work and Sadie and I looked at worms after the rain.

Another 24 hour cabin trip with my Snow friends! I love this tradition so much. Tara, Patty, Mary Ellen and me. We met for an early dinner at The Strap Tank and then enjoyed T’s cabin and all the good stuff that comes with cabin time. Movies, snacks, some games (more than usual this year), and lots of chatting (also lots of snow).

Sometimes a Thursday calls for an after school Arctic Circle run with Cam and Sadie.

Also - a pic from Costa Vida earlier this week.

Happy sweet sixteen Sadie. It was a good birthday celebrated for 3 days in a row. Today was a little school, a smoothie thanks to Rylie, Lowe’s for a new plant, Olive Garden dinner (DAKTRCCS), and presents to celebrate a funny and creative girl.

Sadie loves - Zupas, Sonic the hedgehog, her sisters and bro, crochet, her fish, Minecraft, animal crossing, plants, legos, drawing, and ramen.

Such a good Sunday School lesson. Christ and some of His miracles plus some words from president Nelson and President Howard W Hunter. Also good was fettuccine Alfredo for dinner with breadsticks and pineapple and Twinkie strawberry shortcake in south Jordan.

We had such a great time celebrating Sadie’s birthday this afternoon. Laser tag with all of us was awesome. 3 games of joyful entertainment. Bowling alley pizza was ok and cake was yummy. So much fun and laughter at Jack and Jill’s. Home to hang out for a bit. Kenz gave Sadie the hat she asked for. “It took 65 years to look this good.”  Laughing tears from Sadie since she requested it.

“The Lord’s standard of behavior will always be more demanding than the world’s, but then the Lord’s rewards are infinitely more glorious—including true joy, peace, and salvation.” - Sister Sheri Dew October 1999 GC.
