My little model! She loves to pose. Isn't she cute?

Happy Halloween!

Dax was Ironman, or as he says Fireman! You tell him to say iron and he'll say iron, then you tell him to say man and he'll say man, then you tell him to say Ironman and he says Fireman! I don't get it but it's cute anyway!

I bought a cute little witch hat with orange pig-tails, instead, Braden decided that he would give her a black mohawk! Punk Rock!

I don't really know what I turned out to be. It started as some sort of a witch, but is really more of a punk rock fairy witch. All I know is that Tylee and I had matching costumes, so it was cute!
Happy Halloween!

Tylee was too tired to keep walking from trunk to trunk that she just had to find a place to rest. I have no idea who's chair that is, but it seemed like a good enough place to her!

Two super heros hard at work fighting crime! Intimidating, isn't it?
One of the three ways that we can do Tylee's hair right now! She's getting so much!

Best Friends Forever!


Did I mention that my kids are each other's best friend?
Dax loves the Zoo!


Have you ever seen a white aligator before? Or was it a crocodile? I can never remember. Anyway, it was pretty cool.

The train ride through the zoo in Arizona with Kristy and Jimmy! We were so close to some of the animals that we could have reached out and touched them. It was pretty cool!


Does this picture look familiar to anyone? I don't know why both of my kids love fingernail polish so much that they feel like they can't wait for me to help them out!
Dinner before the Justin Timberlake concert! Yes, I said Justin Timberlake. Probably one of the best concerts I've ever been to!

The day at the park just wears everybody out!

Dax and Tylee were chasing each other in the garden maze! They are just the best of friends!

Dax is getting so big and daring! It's not fair. What happened to my little baby?! This doesn't mean I'm getting old too does it?

Tylee loves slides! Every time she goes down the slide, she waits until I pull out the camera and take a picture of her before she'll slide down.

Tylee's first pig-tails!

St. George Marathon!



I did it! I finally ran a full marathon! (This is at mile 16.) I have wanted to do one my entire life, so when the opportunity came up and I only had about 6 weeks to train, I thought, "what the heck!" It rained the entire time, but the rain was fine, it was the head wind that blew the rain in your face and eyes that kinda sucked! At least I found a really good friend to run the race with! Amanda and I met up at about mile 12 and ran the rest of the race together. We had a blast despite the conditions!


Our Mad-Dash to the finish! My goal was to finish under 4:30:00. My official time was 4:21:03!


Right after the marathon, and both of us manage a smile! One of my favorite races ever, despite the fact that I felt like I was running in the shower the whole 26.2 miles! The best part was finishing my life long goal with a new friend by my side! Cheesy, I know, but it is true!
