Utah Trip

I was so lucky to travel to Utah to see my neice, Amber's graduate from BYU Nursing School!
Congratulations Amber!



Here are some more AMAZING things I got to do:



Be in the same room as President Uchdorf and listen to him speak at the graduation. (He received an honorary doctorate degree)







Took a quick peek at Temple Square with my SIS, Sherry










Visited the House where Abe and I brought AJ home from the Hospital - 18 years ago!





Went with Katie to pick up her NEW siamese kitty, Fiona.









Pedicures with Katie & Heather


Shopping at Ikea with my buddy, Renee -
(thanks for fun drive Renee!)


I even got to see the awesome basement apartment my nephew has been living in - reminded me of Abe's BYU hangout.




Watching movies LATE at night with my nephews, Jason & Kyle, was a blast!



Great Memories!

We Did It!

Today Abe, Austin, and I ran a 5K. It was fun making a memory together!

This run is neat because it's set up by a family who was given $400.oo to do something good with. Every year since then - they have set up this run and donated the money to a good cause. They have turned the $400 into $75,000. Isn't that inspiring?




Here is Austin at the finish line! He came in 2nd place in the whole race and 1st place in his catagory! (21.18 min.)

Way to go Awesome Austin!





Here' Abe at the finish line - he came in 1st place in his age category! (25.09)





Here I am turning the last corner - sweet Austin came back and supported me for the last bit. I came in 3rd in my age group - but I was just glad to finish and not throw-up (like I did last time)




Here we are with our medals - kind of fun! Great Day!
