St. George 1/2 Marathon

So on Saturday Brett and I ran a half marathon in St. George. It was probably the hardest time I had running ever. My legs felt like sandbags. I was actually planning on having a hard time. The farthest I had run was 9 miles and that was a few weeks before. And I hadn't really ran much since. And I thought Brett would be in the same boat. I was completely wrong. He had the most energy ever and felt great. I was so frusrated because I sucked so bad and I was holding him back. Except he kept staying with me. I kept telling him to go. And he wouldn't. Then finally after being sick of being bunched in with people he took off. And I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bugged. He got far enough ahead of me that when he went around a bend and looked back at me. I was crying and I flipped him off. I was so mad at myself at him for leaving me. Just thinking the whole time I would never leave him. Well not to far ahead was the next water station. And I got there and he was waiting for me. When I got up to him I was so mad and just ready to tell him off. When he just looked at me with complete love and just said Roni do you really think I would leave you... I probably cried a little. But I was so happy that he wouldn't abandon me that I was determined to do better. I still sucked but without him I would've sucked alot worse... I just love him so much. That he is willing to do this even though I'm the one who signed us up. I am just so thankful he is in my life... Cheeseball I know....
Before the dreaded race




After the dreaded race. So much relief it was over. And loving my husband so much right at this moment for helping get through the race.

Super Mario

Well we didn't take any christmas pictures. Or New Years.. So I had to get pictures from other people because we didn't take any. But on the 20th we had Bretts family christmas party. we played dodgeball. We lost but it was still fun. I think we lost because I didn't have the proper shoes. Dansko clogs just don't cut it. Even though I love them and they are some of my fav. Then we had Christmas down in Fillmore. It was fun. Nice and relaxing and thats where I became addicted to Super Mario for wii. Santa brought me a wii.. But Brandon and Christy got the game and brought it over to Ross and Terri's. And well. I usually try to help get stuff ready for dinner or help clean up. But I was to busy this time to help. Super Mario is my new addiction. So after staying down in Fillmore for a couple days we went to my parents. Mori and Megan were there. So we got the 4-wheeler out and pulled each other on a tube behind it. Well me being me. I tried to go to fast around one turn and I flew off the 4-wheeler pulling Brett. I didn't roll the 4-wheeler but it tipped enough that it threw me off in sitting postion. I wasn't hurt at all. I couldn't stop laughing. Then the next weekend we went back down to Fillmore for Callies baby blessing. I was a little disappointed because I didn't get to play Super Mario. But I somehow survived. I finally got it. And I am on level 7. I would have it conquered but I have to work. And Brett wants to play too. And I am proud to say on our game together we are at level 8. From warping. But just me by myself I didn't warp and haven't gotten any farther. So last weekend we went to Snocross. It was fun and cold.. Luckily Brett bought me some snow clothes and I suited up for this. There was a guy sitting behind us that could have been my dads twin. So my life is same as always. Which is great. And the new addition of Super Mario has been awesome.....SnoCross
Good Luck spotting Brett
