Circus




We have been hanging out with family the last couple of weeks. Last week my mom, the kiddies and I went to the Orem mall and they got to play in the big tree house and dinosaur bones. We went to the eatery and had dinner and on our way out the door we had to stop at See's chocolates. Yesterday Marci and Paige came to my house and we made Asian Lemon Chicken and cut out snowflakes on my cricut. Today my family, Pat, and Robert went to the circus. When it first started the lights went down and the colored lights started flashing. Trevor looked around to see what was going on and then covered his eyes with his hands. I'm not sure if he was scared or if the lights were bothering him. He loved seeing all the animals and sideshows. Allie was amazed at all the was going on around her. At half time they had little horses the kids could ride and Elephants. Allie was able to get on the last Elephant ride with her friend Emma from our ward (they just happened to be there). She wasn't afraid to get on it at all and she had to tell me all about how she didn't fall off cause she held onto the red things that looked like a rectangle. We went to subway for dinner aferwards. It was a lot of fun.

Getting in the Groove

I have been working overtime the past 2 weeks and that includes Saturdays. I would wake up at 3:30 to make it in to work at 5 am. Oh boy that sure wears a person out. It is now time to dust off my treadmill and any other form of exercise equipment and get in the groove of getting healthy. I feel like there are lots of people in my life who have been working hard and losing weight and they are looking good, as I sit back and wish it were me. So now it is my turn. Wish me luck.
