Coral Pink Sand Dunes

We just took our first camping trip of the summer last weekend. We went to the Coral Pink Sand Dunes near Kanab. It was a blast. Our friends Jeremy & Lacy own toyshare where you accumulate points and can trade them in for Rvs, 4-wheelers, or boats etc...So they rented a motor home, we loaded up the 4-wheelers and off we went. It was a long 5 hour drive and I am glad we weren't trapped in a car. That would have been uncomfortable. And Davin did so well. But I wasn't surprised. Davin loves road trips. We took off on Thursday afternoon and came home sunday evening. We enjoyed warm weather and being with friends. Davin played in the sand and road around on the 4-wheeler with dad. He is an outdoors boy for sure. Our next vacation is Cabo in 3 weeks and we can not wait. Davin is comming with and I am excited to see his excitement on the plane and playing on the beach and in the water. I am so glad he does so well away from home.

MMM I love licorice.

Moab 5 mile run

This year Atessa (Aren's sister), my mom, Aren & I all decided we were going to run in Moab's 5 mile run on March 21st. After 3 months of training, the day came. We got up early and were bussed up the canyon to the starting point. The gun went off and we started down the canyon road. After 59 minutes my mom finished. 2 minutes later Atessa and I came across the finish line. We would have kept up with my mom but for years I have been getting bad pains in my knee when I run. I wobbled down the road for the last 2 miles or so and what a great sister-in-law Atessa is, she stayed with me. After the race we rested a little and then went on a few 4x4 jeep trails with Atessa's brother-in-law, Trevor. We went on a few trails in Hell's Revenge. It was exciting. Atessa has been trying to talk me into running the 1/2 marathon (13 miles) next year. I am still debating on that. I might be joining her in a triathalon in sept. down in St. George. I think that will be a great way to end the summer.

It's time to baby proof the house!

Our little munchkin is mobile! Davin started crawling on March 6. He has been working on this for about a month and has finally figured it out. He is also cruisin around in his walker. He loves chasing our dog, Roxy and any one who will run from him. He is now into everything. If it's on the floor he'll try to run it over or knock it down. If it is on a table within reach he'll grab it. Davin is also teething. The poor little guy. I can't even imagine how bad it hurts. He'll be 9 months old on the 19th and he is learning so much. He can say da da and has learned to spit along with a few other noises. His favorite toy is his soccer ball...Go figure. He can kick it and almost push it away from him when sitting. We have spring fever so bad. I can't wait till we can slide down the slide and swing on the swings. I can't believe my baby will be a year old in 3 1/2 months. We have a busy summer planned and we are excited to enjoy new things as a family.
