10K Desert News


10 More Weeks and Nikki and I are running the St. George Marathon. For Our training we ran a 10k this morning. It is Pioneer Day and the race was down a pioneer rout. We had tons of fun. except when we got past by a eighty year old and a Nine year old. LOL. There was so many people that we did not start moving until a couple of minutes after the whistle. Our next race is the Provo Half marathon August 9Th. that should not be to bad. We are already on mile 12 in our training.

The 4th of July



The 4th was alot of fun this year. Tyler and Raquel were at the age that they really enjoyed Jared setting of the fireworks. Tyler just kept talking about them for two days straight. We spent the fourth at our new home with Jared's Mom and Terry. We just did a little BBQ and let Jared entertain us with his firework show. We Utahns celebrate Pioneer Day with fireworks too. So it is kinda like two fourth of July celebrations in a month. Can't wait till the 24th.

Raquel's Surgery




Little Raquel had her surgery done on her eye while Jared was in Missouri Two weeks ago. She had a clogged tear duck in her right eye. She has made a full recovery and her eye is so pretty now. She looked so cute in her surgery outfit.

Family






My Brother Justin and his family along with my brother Troy came through Utah during there move. We got to hang out with them at the Dinosaur museum. Even though the picture of Raquel and Troy did not turn out that great, Raquel just adores Troy. He sure is her favorite Uncle. Tyler really enjoyed hanging out with his cousins Drew and Owen. It was the first time I got to see Sally too. She is just the cutes little girl.
