5K Firsts!!!!

Hey Everyone!!!! Today Ryan, Steve and I ran a 5K! I have run half marathons, a marathon relay and a 10k but never a 5k! It was also Ryans first 5k! We all did awesome. Steve got 3rd in men, I got 3rd in women and Ryan got 3rd in age division! Steve and I got a 75.00 gift certificate to a running store!!!!!!!

I am so proud of Ryan! It was his first race ever!!!!!!! He finished less than a minute behind me!

Too Long

Ok, so I lied last post! I really wasn't going to be blogging again! Well, I wanted to but you know...time gets away from you! It has been too long and I really want to blog again! I won't make any promises but I will try! I have had so much going on and I need to get to posting! It has been too long for many other things also! Look at what I am doing today.....

Would you say that I am just a tad bit behind on cutting coupons! I really need to start saving again. We went to Sams Club saturday and spent over 400.00 so I have been challenged to only spend 80.00 each week for the rest of September! We will see! Be back soon with more posts!

I'm Back

Just wanted you to know that I am still here! Boy has my life been crazy! I really want to get back into blogging and show you all what I have been up to! Today is the girls last day of school so I have to get a lot done but will hopefully start blogging again soon!

Birthday Party Planning

Madisyn turns 14 on February 5th and I am having a great time planning her party! It always gets harder the older they get! Anyway, thanks to karaspartyideas.blogspot.com she and I decided on a purple, silver, white and black party! It is going to look awesome. These are the invitations that I came up with to make. They are simple but elegant!!

Here is a simple tissue pom pom that I made. It only cost me .99 to make. I am going to make a few more to hang around. They are so simple to make. I got the instructions on imperfectlybeautifulms.blogspot.com. It was in a post back from 09 on this blog! I can't wait to post pictures of the entire party!

I sure will miss this....

We went in the canyons yesterday and it was soooo beautiful! I am sure going to miss these beautiful views. Not sure where I can find sites like this in Indiana.

The New House

I am excited to tell everyone that we purchased a new house this weekend! We got a great deal on a spec house and we are super excited. We are going to have over 5,000sq ft which I am super excited about! With it being brand new we get to put our own touch on it. I will take before and after pictures of our progress! Here is a picture of the front!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN

Friday was Ryan's birthday! Happy Birthday even though it is late for the blog!!
