Running!!!


So me and Caden have 2 different 5K runs coming up. We wanted to do some last year, but we never really had time to do the training. To be honest, we don't have much time now either, but we signed up anyway. I am also not a big runner, but I want to do something to push myself and get me motivated!

The first run is in May. It is the Susan G. Komen run. Caden's mom, Sue, signed us up. They are doing it at her work. I am actually really excited to do this run. I will be running for my Grandma Marlys who was diagnosed with breast cancer a while back. She is such a fighter and doing awesome right now! I will be so proud to run for her!

Here are some of us girls with her a year ago, we love her so much :) 



The next 5K we will be doing will be in September. This run we are doing with a bunch of people from my work. It is called Man vs. Mud. It's a race in the mud with a ton of obstacles. This is going to be so much fun! Our team name is going to be "The Skid Marks" haha. Except we will have tire marks on our shirts :).

Watch this video of Man Vs. Mud. It looks like a ton of fun :) 


We are pretty excited to take part in these and have something to start training for! 

Caden's 22nd Birthday!

A couple weekends ago we went down to Salt Lake to celebrate Caden's 22nd Birthday. We spent the day with Caden's parents going shopping. We got to go to Fashion Place Mall for the first time since it was newly remodeled. I wanted to shop for myself so badly, but I stayed focus on Caden and he got some really cute clothes! Afterwards we went out to dinner with Caden's parents, my parents and our friends, Colby and Amanda. I honestly cannot remember the name of the restaurant we ate at, but it was really yummy :).
Afterwards we went back to Caden's parents and played a game called "The Great Dalmuti". It is a fun game, but Caden's family puts their own twist on the game and makes everyone wear these really goofy hats. Here are some pictures of us at dinner and afterwards playing the game...
(Sorry these pictures are kind of crappy... I forgot my camera so they are all off my phone) 






Can't leave the puppies out :) 
 On Caden's actual birthday (which was the day after this), we went and saw Act of Valor. I actually really liked this movie. The acting was not the greatest, but the fact that it was actual Navy Seals made it really awesome!



 So there you have it! Happy Birthday Cade, I love you so so much!
