Carving out our niche.
Lots of birthday’s this month…
Not only was Nathan gracious enough to have us over for a birthday bash, he made us dinner to boot! He’s developing some killer pizza-making talent, much to our delight. After dinner we played some kind of crazy card game that had everyone in stitches…I still have no idea what the rules are, except that Kristie was a perma-ghost.
Here’s a shot of Rowan enjoying her first birthday cake up in Ogden:
No, not the greek one. My main man Theron had a nasty accident playing soccer and tore his achilles tendon. It required surgery, so he’s laid up for a few months. We’re hoping his recovery is akin to that of the pitcher in “Rookie of the Year,” where a shortened tendon will give him mad hops or something. Feel better buddy!
Not only did we get to celebrate Harry and Sarah’s engagement this month, but Harry’s birthday too! Sarah made a killer cake and Harry blew out all the candles with one deft clap of his hands. Let’s face it, they’re a power couple.
Sorry for the fuzzy iPhone photo, it’s the best I could do at the moment:
Tonight we headed out to Saratoga Springs for Mo-mo’s wedding reception…it was awesome catching up with her and a bunch of old friends. Congrats Morgan, you guys look great together! Here’s a picture of Kristie with Loni and Sandy:
I’m here at the finish line of the race, Kristie did awesome. More pictures to come.
BYU is playing it’s season opener vs. Utah with a themed “throwback” night right now – 25 cent tickets, live organ music, etc. It was so full that there was standing room only when we arrived, so the six of us left the park, went around to the outfield, cut through the fence and watched from the grass between the trees. Here’s a picture from where we’re sitting:
This week Kristie was recruited by an employee of the Runner’s Corner to join their marathon team. They heard about her qualifying time for the Boston Marathon, and were really impressed by the fact that she got it on her very first one. She’ll be training with a bunch of former college athletes and running junkies who think they can take her raw talent and really boost her her performance with proper training. Besides the camaraderie of joining the team, it was pretty cool for her to get a bunch of free running stuff too.
Turns out that two other members of the team will be running the Boston Marathon in April too, so she’ll have a few friends on the course (as well as a rowdy group of fans that will be off of it!). I’m so proud of her…anyone that knows Kristie knows that she loves running, and her dedication really shows.
