SNEAKY LOVE
So I am being pretty sneaky by posting this. You have to promise if you read this post that you don't know anything about this. Seriously!!!
Here are the quilt tops that I put together (with the help of my wonderful, gorgeous, and talented friend Jenny) for each child's gift of love for Christmas. I am putting minkies on the back and then having them machine quilted. Yes, this is going to cost me and arm and a leg, but it's something that I have really wanted to do for my kids! They are all twin sized so they will still be able to cuddle with them when they are bigger too!!!
Shhhh! Mums the word!
Here is cute Kenna!
2 helpers and part of Kate's quilt.
Faith's quilt before the big change happened.

GIRLFRIENDS ARE THE BEST!
This weekend, I was able to visit with 2 of the best of best girlfriends. I sure have missed these girlfriends in my life! We took pictures of the girls and then took pictures of us!
Kristy - I met Kristy in High School. We must have had a class together and then she convinced me to do Jr. Miss with her. I relented and ended up spending the rest of High School hanging out with her! College was no different ... I slept over at her house more than I slept at my house. We took so many classes together. I'll never forget "Mr. Graph Lover" and the bags of junk food to try and stay awake. Kodak, Kristy's van, was one of a kind. She'll remember vividly that you never give Zoey 1 towel when she showers, because the hair will be put in higher priority!
Jenny - I had to ask her this weekend how we met. You know when you've known each other so long that you can't quite remember. Jenny's husband worked at Burger King with me. We figured out the Jenny had a class with me (Music), but it was a big class. So one day, Troy walked Jenny to class so that we could meet. Kristy, too, was in that class, and we instantly hit it off. Jenny probably doesn't have as many 'exciting' stories about me as Kristy does, but she was the one to get us into scrapbooking, stamping, among the other things.
Thank you for your friendship!!! Love you girls!

SIMPLOT RUN
I believe it was in April when Anya, Sara, and I decided that we would run the Simplot Run together. Sara and I volunteered at the Joint Jaunt at a watering station, so that we would be able to get a free run for Simplot.
In July, we found out that Sara and her family were moving, so we would not be able to make this run together. But we still wanted to do it.
Then came August and the beginning of September. Motivation to train was low, and I neglected it. So, with 1 practice run on Tuesday, I went to do this one . . .
Bryleigh did amazing and Anya kicked my butt (no surprises there!)
On a brief highlight, for a small moment I came in 3rd in the 10K run and Anya came in 1st in the 5K walk. I finished in 29th place out of 49 in my age group - at a time of 37:38 ... breaking it down to 12:06 minute miles. Add in a few hilly parts and the fact that I was not training, I feel like I did pretty good ...
But I stilled missed Sara!
