Running Straight for 1 Hour, 46 Minutes, and 59 Seconds

It has come to my attention that if I don't sign up for a race, I have little motivation to run....so, I did another Half-Marathon in Phoenix on November 13th.

I was really nervous before the race! I'm usually not too bad. Maybe it's because I was running all by myself and didn't have siblings or my 75-year-old Grandpa running with me. Maybe Scott will run with me next time....

I was super tired by the end, but I beat my previous times!


I had to run in the snow in Wellsville during our trip. I was happy to get back to my 80 degree weather in Tucson:) Trust me, I would not have been running in snow if I didn't have a race to run!

Kamille & John's Weddin'

We visited Logan, UT to see my friend get married...isn't she cute?!



It was fun to see all of my friends. It was even cooler to see all of them in the temple. It was such a good feeling to know that we made it there (even after having to go through high school;) ) and that we're trying to live to always be able to go to the temple.

And we drove the Jetta up to Cache Vally and sold it to my fam. We decided 3 vehicles wasn't necessary for 2 people.

That car does have lots of memories:
  • The car alarm going off and I have no idea why or how to make it stop
  • Running over a squirrel with Kamille as my passenger (it made me think of that one Seinfeld epidsode...)
  • Being able to weave in and out of other cars cuz it's small
  • Being pulled over 4 times and only getting a ticket once:)
  • Scott learning how to drive stick shift
  • All the plastic falling off the seatbelt holders, under the steering wheel, and anywhere else that had plastic
Well, I hope the Clarks enjoy it:)

Scott's New Adventures of Road Biking

Tucson is known for being very bike-friendly. Scott has always wanted a road bike, and now he finally has one!



Scott is doing a sprint triathlon, December 11th, in Phoenix. It's his first one and he's excited about it. I'm very excited to be watching him instead of participating:)




A Winter Garden?

Well, we're trying:)

We planted strawberries, cilantro, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, spinach, and peas.

The peas are doing great! We're also seeing some carrots and cilantro. The lettuce and spinach never came up...we're blaming it on the ground being too hard, not our lack of a green thumb:) At least we have peas for sure!
