Bountiful Triathlon

On August 8th Ty and I did a triathlon together. I originally signed up for it without Ty, but later we found out that the swim was last, it went run, bike, swim and if you know me I am not a swimmer! I actually took lessons this summer, haha. So it made me nervous to have the swim be last, so Ty really wanted to do the run portion of the race so we signed up as relay team! Ty ran the 5k in 21 minutes, I did the 11.8 mile bike in 37 minutes, and the 400 meter swim in 13! The swim was slow, but crazy people were jumping in all over and there was like 10 people per lane, actually at one point a guy pushed me under the water and swam over the top of me, it freaked me out! But anyway we loved doing this together and had a lot of fun. Ty's friend Trent Vukich did the whole thing and he took 3rd in his age division, he did awesome! Afterwards the Low's and Vukich's we all went to Ihop for breakfast, it was a lot of fun. Also thanks to everyone that came and supported us!! We definitely want to do a tri separately on September 12th in Sandy.
If anyone has any advise on how to swim and breath good let me know!!

Kennady Dancing

So tonight I know I am lame but I love High School musical and the 3rd one was on tv so I was watching it. And during dinner the part where Troy and Gabriella were dancing for prom Kennady wanted to dance with Ty. It was so cute she kept saying "Stand up Daddy, stand up" so she twirled around with Ty and after when they kissed she wanted to kiss her Dad. It was so cute, I am glad I had my camera close! Ty is so cute with Kennady and truly he is her first love!
Perfect tv timing too! haha

Miss Erickson

I had this amazing 5th grade teacher, her name is Miss Laurie Erickson! She honestly was the best teacher. She taught us so many things, not just school subjects, but music, theatre, poetry and so many other things. She is such a kind person that cares so much about her students. She has always kept in touch with me since I left her class. She supported me through middle school, highschool, she sent me a card for graduation. She came to my wedding, and sent me a very cute bouncer when I had Kennady. So in other words she was so amazing. She was just not only nice to me she does this with many of her students. She is so full of zest and life, she is always happy. So this past Saturday she had a 50th surprise birthday party. There were probably 100 people there to support and love her! I am so glad I was able to go to support her after all she has done for me! She really is a good example to me of love and service.

The Cabin

So last year and this year we went to Kevin's parents cabin up in the uintah's by the boy scout camp East Fork of the Bear. It is so beautiful up there and so quiet it is so nice just to get away. We went 4 wheeling a lot, there are so many trails to go on and explore. We also went to Provo River Falls a family tradition. Kennady loved it, it was pretty cold but she wouldn't get out of the water, it was so funny! Ty and I decided to sit in the waterfall, but I didn't get the correct memo I guess cause Ty dunked his whole body in it, I just sat in it haha. It was freezing, but really fun. We always have a lot of fun with my family up there, we have good talks and it is such a fun family bonding experience! Thanks Mom and Dad for making this year fun again! We loved it.
