Flexibility
Flexibility, that is what I have decided that I need throughout this winter. The other day I wrote a blog pretty much just complaining about the effects of snow on my running. Those days that I have my runs planned and then they get ruined by weather are hard on me. I look forward to…

The Magician’s Nephew
A couple Friday nights ago, Brent and I went to a fundraiser event for Clydehurst Christian Ranch. Clydehurst is a bible camp that I attended in middle school and high school. I always loved going for that one week each summer. A week of riding horses, hiking, swimming, and several other random activities. What teenager…

It’s a love hate relationship between me and the snow.
Yesterday afternoon I was looking outside my window at work watching the snow start to fly. It looked beautiful, but I had skipped my lunch run in hopes to get a run in with Brent after work. If we do not run together, he just does not run. Which is fine. That is why I…

The only allowed exception in early holiday fare
As each store continues to light up with ads for Christmas, catering to kids, moms, grandparents, even dogs, I notice that with each passing year, the commercialization of the holiday season comes earlier and earlier. Why do we need to stock up on Christmas trinkets and bobbles nearly two month ahead? It’s not like we…

Our Trail or Bear Territory?
On Halloween night, we went out to our trail. We are trying to get all the runs in on our trail before the snow starts flying. Which normally, has already happened. We have had a long fall here in Montana and Brent and I have been loving every bit of it. The colors on our…

No More Space
The other night, I attempted to put some more pictures on my computer from our camera. I say attempted because as the import was coming to an end, I got an error message. There is no more space on the computer to import any more photos. Brent and I have gone photo crazy this year.…

Marathon Madness
Sunday started out with a not so wonderful night of rest. I laid on the bed tossing and turning trying to get comfortable. My mind would not turn off from the excitement that was just hours away. While laying there, I could hear the rain pouring outside. I finally looked at the clock to see…

Lunch Times
Brent and I have been lucky enough since the middle August to spend out lunches together. This has been an on and off things since we got married, but when we get to, we love it. It is a great time to catch up on each others days instead of going through all of the…

Brent’s Birthday Breakfast
Last night I was trying to figure out what to make Brent for his birthday breakfast. Since he normally makes breakfast, I decided that he could not on his birthday. I wanted to give him a day off as it is definitely deserved. His 26 years in this world and all the running he does…

Some of the best things in life…
Some of the best things in life are the simplest things. This is not news to most of us. I think that most of us can appreciate the little things. These things can end up being the most important. I hope that we do not pass over them without realizing this. Some of these things…

Burnt Out
The other day Brent was making his tasty puffed pancake for breakfast. He put the butter in the microwave to melt so that it could be mixed into his batter. All of a sudden, the microwave started sending out quick little spark noises. Brent could see the sparks flying and quickly turned it off. First…
