Summer is here and gone

I can't believe summer is about over. I went way too fast. I am excited for the new adventures that lay ahead. I've applied to a dental hygiene program in Boise Idaho and should be hearing back next month if I got in. What a big change and great opportunity that will be. I can't wait!!!!

Cory and Zack are growing up too fast. I just love them to pieces. They are like best friends, well most of the time. I love having them so close. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Cory is in pre school now and gets to ride the school bus. It is so cute. He is potty trained now and is becoming such a big boy. Zack just loves Cory SO much. He copies everything and anything Cory does. They are so cute and fun together. Best buds forever and ever. I am SO lucky to have these precious boys in my life. I wouldn't trade em for anything.

Yesterday I ran in my first marathon, the Cedar Half. I didn't decide to do it till this last Tuesday so I had NO training. Fortunately I was able to run the whole thing, 13.1 miles. But I am totally paying for it today. I know I can do anything I put my mind to. I just have to have faith. I can't wait for my next marathon. It was such a great accomplishment. I finished 190th place overall (out of over 500) and my time was 2hr 16 min. Not bad for no training. My niece Dani ran it with me. She totally pushed me and kept me going. She was so awesome and such a great encouragement. The best part was running past Cory and the rest of the clan in the park, cheering me and Dani on. Only 2 miles left. My family is so awesome and SO supportive. I love them all so much!

So much has happened this summer and if I posted it all it would be like a million pages long. So I'll just post some pictures instead and hope thats good enough. I just can't express enough how much I love my 2 boys. They are little stinkers at times but most of the time they just melt my heart. I love them So so much and can not wait until we are all sealed together so we can be a family for time and all eternity. I know I've strayed too far in my life and made some bad mistakes but I have learned so much and I know how important the Gospel is in my life.

SUU Alumni

So I am now officially graduated from Southern Utah University. I don't have the highest degree or the best, but none the less I have a degree. In fact I'm the first in my family to achieve this! I will now be looking to apply to a Dental Hygiene program in Idaho and hopefully start in January 2010. Its a big move but will be worth it in the end.

Cory and Zack are doing great! They are growing up too fast. They have become the best of friends and I am loving every single minute of it.

Finally

Hey everyone. So I had to make a blog for a class and I decided I might as well try and stay up on it. So here we go. I love to brag about my cute boys. Cory will be 2 this month and Zack is 10 months. I can't believe how fast time goes. Zack finally started sleeping through the night which is great. They are so much fun. Cory is really into the Monsters Inc. movie right now. He watches it so much. I'm glad its warm now so he can get outside and run. He loves being outside. He loves bikes, trucks and 4 wheelers. We went to a monster truck show last weekend. Cory loved it! Zack got to stay with grandma since it was kind of loud. Then we went to Sand Hallow and played on the shore. The boys loved that and had a great time. As for me, I'm just working a ton right now and getting ready to take a few summer classes. So anyway, I'll work on getting some pictures up soon.

Web 2.0-What does it really mean?

An Outstanding Video out of Kansas State University

Web 2.0 is all about content and text. I found it interesting when it said that we teach the computer everytime we click a link. It is amazing how the web can link the whole world together and you are able to share your ideas and thoughts by expressing them in a blog. I found it intersting how hyperlinking can link you anywhere. Its crazy to think that there is a blog born every second. There are so many people out there using this idea and taking advantage of sharing what they feel everyone needs to know.
