Team Challenge

Team Challenge is a non profit organization that raises money to research Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis and they have different fundraising programs and since my family has a history of both these diseases. I thought I would sign up to participate in one. The fundraising program that I am taking part in is a half marathon in San Antonio, TX this November. I am raising money to travel down to Texas and run the half marathon all while raising money for research. I think these types of organizations are really great to get involoved in and I hope to raise all the money needed to help further the research!

Happy Belated Anniversary!

Ryan and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary on May 6th and we went down to Daytona and Disney World. Ryan planned a business trip at the end of May to go down to Daytona and thought it would be good to have it be our anniversary present since I really just want to travel a lot before we have a baby! Last year on our way back from Utah we stopped in Vegas for a night and it was great! We got hooked up with a penthouse (probably because it was a slow Tuesday night) but anyway...We went to Daytona this year, def. not as glamorous, I think it might be redneck heaven next to Gulf Shores! Sorry to anyone that I offended. But I did love our hotel and it was super nice! We got to go to the Orlando Temple and drove past the Holy Land, it was a theme park for Jesus. Interesting. Disney was great! We only had one day and I have never been to Disney World only Land and that was years ago. We hit all four parks and rode the rides we wanted to and saw the awesome fireworks at Magic Kingdom! 9-11 we walked around, got back to our room at 12:30AM and the next morning we had to get up at 530 to make our flight at 730! We were pooped! But It was Wonderful!

Recent Events...

I have been doing a lot of different things this summer and thought I would talk about them and put some pictures up since my blog is still very boring. I've been able to hang out with my cousins a lof this summer which is great because I usually don't see them as much as I would like and we had such fun times growing up! Our moms and grandma would drive us all over the country during the summers and we would have to best time! We haven't been anywhere together in a long time but we did go shooting with Garrick because he loves guns and is going to school to be a gunsmith. I thought it wouldn't be too bad but I didn't realize I would go deaf! I really only liked the handguns and the 22 ( I think thats what its called). I am not big on guns but it was a new and fun thing to do with my cousin.

I can't run anymore!

Ok ever since my half marathon I have not been in the mood to run at all! I have run a few times since then but I seem to hate running and I don't see how I ran 13.1 miles! I ran 3.5 mi. last night with my mom, sis, and Ryan and I could have died! I blammed it on the humidity which is awful but still! I need a kick in the butt to get me going again!

This should be interesting...

Ok this is my first time blogging and I am blog challenged. So I hope it will only get better. I really like looking at other peoples blogs and thought I should get my own so we'll see how it goes.
