My Cut

So this happened about a month ago, but most of my family doesn't know about it, so
I thought I would write about it! I was actually going to sign up for the 10k race on the base. I also had to run some other errands that day. So I got to the Fitness Center and when I got out of the car I realized I hadn't locked it, so I reached in the passenger side door and locked it and quickly shut it, except I failed to pull my forehead out of the way in time, so the corner of the door smacked me in the head. At first I thought it was nothing, until I looked in the mirror and saw the blood ooozing from the gash. Great, I was thinking, Haley was with me so we walked into the gym with a bleeding cut on my forehead and asked to sign up for the race, it really started hurting and I felt a little light headed, the girls at the desk said it looked pretty bad so they called the paremedics. Well when they got there, they didn't speak any English and all they did was stick a bandaide on my head!! Nice!! Well signed up for the race and finished running my errands for the day. It healed pretty good but now I definitely have a scar, it really stinks!!!

I took this picture the next day before we went to church. Nice that it is rigt in the middle of my forehead right!!

Happy Birthday Weston!

Weston turned 6 this year! I can't believe how big he is getting!! We had a family celebration on his actual birthday, April 6th, we had his favorite meal, PIZZA, and cake and ice cream for dessert, YUMMY! He opened his presents and that was it!!!

The following Saturday we had his friend party! He wanted to swim, so we went to my friends pool and had all of his friends and their families come play!!! Weston had a blast, and I think everyone else had fun too!!! It was a perfect sunny day and everything went perfectly except......

..... the beautiful cupcakes I made were attacked by ants!! You can't tell in this picture but they are covered in ants, the kind that bite!! So I had to dump them in the garbage, there was no hope in saving them! Luckily two of the dads that were there, Ben and Sheldon, ran to the store and got a chocolate cake to replace them, thanks guys!!!

Weston is so lucky to have such good friends here and so am I!!!

A couple things about Weston now that he is 6 years old, he is very smart and is in the advanced group in his class for both reading and math!! He loves to play any kind of Star Wars game, and play with any kind of action figure, he is a very sweet older brother and loves to hug and kiss and play with Fox, he is very loving and sweet to his mommy, yes he is a Mama's boy, and he loves having his back scratched and being sung to at night, he loves reading scriptures at night and any other book, and has a very silly sense of humor!! I absolutely adore my sweet Weston and I am so glad he is mine!!

10K Race!

Weston took this picture, I forgot to have my friends at the race take our picture and get a picture of everyone that ran it with us!

So of course this is late but oh well!! About 3 weeks ago I ran my first 10k race! It was here in
Puerto Rico at the army base. I felt pretty good except the race didn't start until 4:30 p.m. so it was really HOT!! It's crazy, I guess they start all their races in the afternoon here, can you say CRAZY! But I finished in 1:05.01 and I placed 2nd in my age group!!! It was a great experience and I definitely want to run another one!
