HELLO!!!! this is amy.... today i worked out for the first time since my last game of volleyball senior year.... its been a while and im absolutely dead....
since its been snowing i decided to bring out the turbo jam and do a killer cardio and ab work out. ill try and stay dedicated..... :)

Well I did it!!! (This is Brittany) I went running last night! It killed me!!!!! I seriously think I might die training for this thing. haha I need to keep it up and keep doing it, but right now my knees are throbbing and my body is aching! It felt good after a while, and today I am glad that I have finally started! I just hope that i will be ready to run this 5K! I am glad that the weather is getting a little better so that I cant start going on long walks and runs outside with the boys and start really training!!!

anyone out there?

Hey!!! there are less than 8 weeks left until the big 5k race! Are you getting ready? Hopefully everyone has been putting in some time and effort.Brittany? Cortney? how's it coming? lets's set some goals for this next week - at least 3 days of jogging/walking 1 or more miles. Post your thoughts.....

can you say snow hiking?

Hi family! I wanted to say what a beautiful hike it was today with everyone. (mom,dad,ben,kim,kids,john,spencer,and of course sammy.) It might not have ever happened, but thanks to Ben's quick reflexes in putting his van in reverse - there were no injuries to report to person or vehicle. It was an exciting way to start off - anyway-we thought the sign said 1.0 miles to big springs which would have been a perfect length for the snowy conditions - but turns out it actually read 1.8! going uphill in the snow that make a big difference. I'm so proud of mom and dad - it was hard work through the snow, and to the girls - each one's feet were completely wet and freezing and they kept going not complaining! way to go everyone! It was a beautiful day and a good start to enjoying activities together. Hopefully next time we'll see Cam and Emily and Mckelle and maybe more. Thught for the day: "We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort." Jesse Owens
HAPPY TRAINING EVERYONE!

Hey family, this is Dan, I went on a two hour bike ride in the foothills by my house. The weather was great and the animals and scenery were beautiful. It was all the workout this little wimp could handle as I had to get off my bike at times and push it up some of the little tiny hills. I felt totally free out there with no one around, Just me and the dirt and my bike and animals; There's nothing better to cheer you up than getting into the great outdoors. I recomend this to anyone. Well, let's keep intouch and motivated. Food for thought (say exercize five times real fast, then say extrasize five times real fast) If ya don't exercise then ya extra-SIZE.
I love you all, have a great day.
