C) Blag about a fun "momcation" to NYC
D) Someone turned 4
E) To throw out all of the Halloween candy
F) For Family Pictures
G) All of the above
DRUM ROLL.......
Answer = F
Every 2 years Jared and the boys are tortured with family pictures! And yes, I love family pictures (well the actual taking part sometimes isn't great). EXCEPT this year......check out some pics from our recent family photo shoot. A fantastic photographer in my ward, Cindy Larkin, did that for us! We love them!

Okay, the real answer should probably be G -
Or H) Go off the grid??

Summer Fun, Summer Run(s) and Summer's Done?
Summer Fun Part 1 - UTAH for the 4th
.
Summer Fun - Part 2 Hogle Zoo
Summer Fun Part 3 - Lake Powell
Summer Run Part 1 - Kaysville July 4th Run
1.2 mile swim
56 mile bike ride
13.1 mile run
Who else would also consider this summer fun? Jared
We did have fun supporting him: his parents, two sisters, one niece, my parents and of course the boys!
Okay, actually two other dad's were faster! Jared had the 3rd fastest run time. And finished 16th OVERALL. Way to rock those shorts.
Summer Fun for REAL - 14th Anniversary
We spent Thursday/Friday kid-less in SLC at the Grand America.
IT is a NICE hotel.
Us on our balcony.
(Really, this is just our 14th - but by my serious crow's feet you'd think 25th - yikes - bad photo, right?)
Lunch, new running shoes, shopping at The Gateway, laying by the pool, relaxing in the hot tub, dinner and shopping in downtown SLC, reminiscing those kid-less days when we both worked downtown, dreaming/skimming on how to get one of those new City Creek condos overlooking Temple Square, LOTS of food and DESSERT, and sleeping-in....it was FUN!
Summer's Done?
Back to School. BOO-YAY!
BOO for a certain 3 year-old.
YAY for a certain mom.
Isaac's first day of 1st grade
Did I mention it was 109 degrees, today?!?
Summer Fun - Part 2 Hogle Zoo
Summer Fun Part 3 - Lake Powell
Summer Run Part 1 - Kaysville July 4th Run
Yes, that is actually me on the left.
It has been seriously about 25 years since I last ran an official 5k.
I ran it in 28:15
Not bad for a major amateur and hater of running.
Jared ran the 10k and got his PR/ goal of under 40 minutes.
But, sadly finished second in his age group....
Cause he ran this race a few years ago and also got 2nd so he was shooting for 1st.
Missed it by 7 seconds. Bummer?!?
My mother-in-law did the 5k walk and took 1st OVERALL.
Must be where Jared gets his competitive edge.
Crystal (SIL) and my father-in-law also ran the 10k.
Cause that is the race that "real" runners do.
Summer Run Part 2 - Utah HALF Ironman It has been seriously about 25 years since I last ran an official 5k.

Don't Mess with Mom
AFTER It might have been a long day of: errands, cleaning, cooking & laundry.
It might have been like 105 so we spent the entire day couped up!
It might have been the "witching" hour.
Maybe, someone snapped!
Due to a day of fighting, hitting, crying and telling on each other.
Two boys may have gone to bed early that night....only to find "AFTER" in the morning.
A three year old might have said in the morning: "Are you mean, mom?"
They might be in the process of "earning" the toys back.
Someone might have alot of leverage right now!

What to do?
Q1) One boy has been asking me to do this for weeks......
Q2) The blog.... Let's be honest, I stink at it. Maybe it's time to go "off the grid".
(To Crystal, my one loyal follower, you would get over it sooner rather than later. And besides one less blog to check would actually be helping you meet your New Years Resolution of only 1 hour on the computer a day :))
So on Sunday I gave it a try again. And right after I finished another boy walked right up to me...pulled my hair and asked: "What is that?" Followed with an immediate: "I DON'T LIKE IT!"
Q2) The blog.... Let's be honest, I stink at it. Maybe it's time to go "off the grid".
