Happy Memorial Day

Hope everyone had a great weekend. We sure did.

Our original plan was to go camping with some people from Randy's work but because the weather was not supposed to be good we decided not to go. So glad we didn't since it rained and hailed most of the weekend.

Randy had taken Friday off and I left early but since we didn't go camping we decided to drive up to Malad to get lottery tickets. When we got back we went running since we didn't have any soccer games over the weekend. Then Randy bbq'd hamburgers for us.

Saturday we went for a walk instead of running. My mom came over and we got to see her new car. She got a Chevy Malibu and it is very very nice. We are going to drive it when we go up to coeur d'alene at the end of June for her family reunion. We went Saturday night to see the new Pirate's movie. It was pretty good.

On Sunday Erin and I did a bunch of errands in the morning and then Randy and I went to movies again with Erin and her boyfriend Jeff. We went to see Bridesmaids. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but it was cute. But a little raunchy. I know Erin is old enough for rated R movies but I was a little embarrassed to be with her watching some of those scenes.

On Monday Randy and I went running again and then we had lunch with my mom and brother. We went to see my dad after lunch but he was sleeping and didn't seem to want to wake up so we didn't stay long. I spent the rest of the day vegging and Randy worked on some new projects for the trailer.

We were hoping to win the lottery and not have to go to work today. But oh well. Maybe next time.

Happy 5th Anniversary

Today is Randy and my 5th Anniversary. So far it have been a pretty good day. Haven't done a whole lot. I have done some yard work and Randy is working on his car and he is helping the neighbor with some stuff. But we took Friday off and on Thursday night we drove to Wendover for the night. We stopped in Salt Lake at the Texas Roadhouse on the way down for dinner. Randy brought me chocolate covered grapes and a new ring. He is just so sweet. And if you have never tried chocolate covered grapes you are missing out. They are so so yummy. We stayed most of the day on Friday gambling and Randy won enough to come home with more than he took. I wasn't as lucky. I lost about $60. We stopped in Salt Lake again on the way home and went to the Spaghetti Factory for dinner. We got home just in time to head out for our two soccer games.

Looking forward to another 5, 10, 15, 20 years with Randy. Things have been going really well for us right now and I am in such a happy place.

5K - Happy Mothers Day

Well Randy, Sophie and I completed a 5k yesterday. It was a fundraiser for her school PTA. There were 250 people who signed up. It was our first official 5K. Randy was able to complete it in just over 34 minutes and Sophie and I completed it in just over 36 minutes. We all got t-shirts and Sophie and Randy both won a day pass to West Valley Fitness Center. Randy gave his to Sophie so she and a friend could go
Randy and I had two soccer games later as well. We were both worn out but did quite well I think. We won the first one and tied the second. In between games there was a game and one the the teams didn't show up so they asked our team to stay and scrimmage. I really didn't want too but Randy did it so he ended up playing 3 games total. Needless to say we are pretty worn out today.
I asked him yesterday when he wanted to do another 5K and he thought I was being funny. But today he asked when another one was. So I think we will be trying to do one once a month and see if our times improve.

Also wanted to tell everyone Happy Mother's Day. Hope you all have a wonderful day. I have had a great weekend. Randy sent me flowers to work on Friday and we went to dinner and a movie with Sophie and Erin. Saturday we took Randy's kids over to see his mom and then Randy, Garrison and I went out of lunch. Today we went to breakfast with Erin and Austin and are going to dinner with my mom and brother and Austin and Erin later tonight.

MOAB

Randy, Garrison, Sophie and I went to Moab last weekend. We took off on Thursday and came home on Sunday. We camped with Randy's cousin Sandy and her boyfriend Ryan and her daughter Sierra. His Uncle Greg and Aunt Cindy. His cousin Tom and his son Chandler. His Uncle Robert and Aunt Ro. And his cousin Steve and his daughter Kristen and friends of theirs Shelly her daughter Kelsey and another friend Shayla so there was a pretty big group of us.

We got there late the first night so didn't do much except stand around the campfire. And that didn't last long for me because it was really windy. Day two was windy but we went for about a 3 hour drive on the four-wheelers with Ryan and Sierra. When we got back we went into Moab and ate dinner because it was too windy to bbq. There was a car show going on for the weekend so we got to see a lot of cool cars dragging the main street.

Saturday we went into Arches National Park and we hiked to the Delicate Arch which was about 3 miles round trip. It was so worth the hike. It was amazingly amazing as Erin likes to say. Then we did a very short walk to Sand Dune Arch. Everybody had had enough by then so we headed back to camp. Randy bbq'd and we stood around the camp fire again until we couldn't take the wind anymore.

On Sunday we went for another long four wheel ride with Ryan, Tom, Steve, Shelly, Kristen, Kelsey and Shayla. We saw Gemini bridges and then we drove down under the bridges. We had to hike in quite a while to get under them. It was pretty amazing. We got back to camp and ate a quick meal and got ready to go home. We made it back home late Sunday night. We are still working on emptying out the trailer.

We really enjoyed the trip except for the wind. It would have been a lot lot better without it. I would love to do it again. I enjoyed spending time with Randy's family which I haven't had the opportunity to do a lot of.

On a side note just want to congratulate Erin on getting a job at Syracuse Six movie theater.
