Trip To Idaho

On valentines day we packed up and went to Cambridge ID to visit Jeremy's mom and step-dad. We had a great time. The kids played with uncle Cody the whole time and I got in two very good runs.
Here are the picture from the trip.

Levi lost his first tooth

Levi lost his first tooth. It's been lose for about a week and this morning he woke up and had a really really sad look on his face so I asked him what was wrong. He said he lost his tooth in the middle of the night and could not find it. So we all went on the great tooth hunt. Jeremy was the one that found it in the floor in Levi's room. I am glad we found it. We have a special box that we put it in and we will put it under his pillow and see what the tooth fairy brings him. I have a feeling that the tooth fairy will be bringing a nice crisp two dollar bill.

Chasing Cupid 5k

Ran a 5k this morning in the snow. It started snowing pretty heavy about 10 minutes before the race started. It was a really cold and skippy run. It was a fun run and was not timed but my phone said my time was 31:05. Which I am happy about. I started at the back of the pack with my friends and had to weave through a bunch of people to find my pace. It was also really slippery and my only goal for the race was to not fall so I went slower in some spots.
The run was called Chasing Cupid and they had 3 cupids that we running and if you "caught" them they would put a sticker on your bid with a number on it and than at the finish your number corresponded with a prize. I got a number and my prize was a pair of sunglasses.
We also got a finisher "medal" (it's more like a key chain).
Over all I had a good time and since I had some friends there it was even more fun.
Here are some pictures :)
Jeremy did not get any pictures of me finishing cause he had just got out of the bathroom with Kyle. I did sprint the last 50 feet :)

Ice Fishing

Jeremy took Levi ice fishing at Strawberry Res on Saturday. They had a great time and both caught a fish.

Virtual 5k

I also participated in a virtual 5k this am. http://www.runsforcookies.com/2013/01/runs-for-cookies-virtual-5k-race-report.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+RunsForCookies+(Runs+for+Cookies)&utm_content=Google+Reader&m=1
Basically I just ran 3.1 miles on the treadmill and took a picture and sent it in.
It was a pretty slow 5k for me cause I was pacing myself for 5 miles not 3. So I did the 5k took a picture and than fished another 2 miles.

Skate Park

Cousin Gavin had his birthday party at an indoor skate park tonight. We all had a blast and here are some pictures.

New Year

The Friday after Christmas I took the boys on a train ride to CA. My mom had major back surgery and I went out there to help her. She got released from rehab the day I arrived so the timing was perfect. She is doing a lot better than I thought she was but she needed a lot of help with everything so I was really glad we went out there.
The train ride going out there was a bit overwhelming and exhausting. The train got delayed due to track repairs so instead of 17 hours we were on the train for 20 hours.
Beside helping my mom and dad we had Christmas with the Craig's which was a lot of fun.
My sis Amy and I ran a race on New Years Day. It was the Los Gatos Resolution run. It was 5 miles and the first 2.5 miles was straight up hill. It was so much fun to run with Amy. I had never ran with anyone before and she really pushed me. I had to talk for about 3 minutes up the last part of the hill which really discouraged me but overall we finished in about 53 minutes which I am happy about. After the race we had celebratory ice cream and went to the beach.
The train ride home went a lot more smooth and the train was right on time.
Here are some pictures from the trip.
