Half Marathon??

9.27.10

We are just days away from going to Florida to participate in the Disney Wine and Dine half marathon run! AHHH.. we have been preparing for this day since Feb. Plans have changed a little, it was supposed to be all Terry's Family, but financial reasons have lead to not much of a family vacation anymore. Terry, Me, Kasi, and Konny are all going out for the weekend to enjoy!
On Saturday night we are going to be running 13.1 miles (well ... Terry and Konny will be running the FULL thing) Kasi and I are on a rely team. I will be running 5.1 and she will be running the finale 8 miles! I am so excited to get away for the week and plan and be in the sun and enjoy a break before all the craziness begins!
I will for sure blog about our race and our
TRIP to DISNEY WORLD/FLORIDA/UNIVERSAL ORLANDO!!!
News Update: TERRY and I are MOVING!! :( yes... when we get back from Florida we are sadly going to pack up our house and will be moving up to Draper with Terry's mom. We will still be going to church here in Orem and I will still be working at Aspen Salon. We decided this is what we needed to do in our lives at this time to find our new directions in life. I hope that this is a good decision that we have made, but we have FAITH and TRUST and we are ready for the new road that lays ahead! Wish us LUCK!

Where were you.....


9.11.10


"Where were you the day the world stopped turning,

on that September day"


I can hardly believe that 9 years ago the world suffered such a tragic loss! Its been such an emotional day of UPs and DOWNs.. to have the memory and to hear the reminder of those stories that day.


I remember I was in 10th grade. I was sitting with some friends in my human biology class. My teacher was listening to the radio and there was a lot of chaos of unknown situation happening in New York. Just about the time the 2nd tower was hit, the principle come over the intercom to annouce that we were under attack and those students that needed to go home could. It was so still... so silent...


The day continued, the next class was American History, how ironic. My teacher was trying everything he could do to get a tv so we could watch the real history of America unfolding. He was giving permission he could take us accross the street to a teachers home. We all crowded into this living room very unprepared for what we were about to see. The two towers were burning.. smoke, flames, people, dust, fire, chaos..... and then it happened, the towers fell.. live on tv.. I remember the gasps!


What was happening? Who was doing this to us... America? Why?


It has been a day of remebrance, a day of hope, a day of reflection...


"Where were you when the world stopped turning,

on that September day?"

I am sorry for my LONG absents from blogging. But hopefully I am back for good this time (ha ha)- I found that I am going to have a little more time on my hand in the evenings. Terry just got a job up at Zermatt Resort and Spa. He works the evening from 5 to 11. We cross paths and I don't even see him til later in the evening. Besides, I haven't blogged for a long while and I have SUCH and entertaining life (he he) I might as well share it with everyone!
