Good Friends ..Good Dinner!

(L to R Rachelle, Patty, Me, Amy)

Two of my good friends from high school were in town for Spanish Fork Fiesta Days. Amy flew in from San Diego with her husband Sunil, whom we were excited to meet, and Patty flew in from San Francisco (her boyfriend Matt couldn't make this trip). We celebrated by having a tasty mexican dinner at La Casita...it was de-lish! It was fun to visit and catch up...Amy is expecting her first baby in January! I wish we could see each other more often. :)

Speedy Spaniard 10K Race

(After the race ...L to R Lesa, Me, Susie, Kris, and Kerri)

Well, the big race was yesterday and it was so much fun!! I ran it with some of my good friends from high school. The day was perfect...it was an early start at 6:30am and was a little overcast so that the sun wasn't blinding us as we ran our 6.2 miles!! I finished in 54 minutes , which I believe is faster than I did it in years past so that was exciting! I can't believe how many people show up to run this race....it was fun to see old classmates there too. Gotta love Spanish Fork Fiesta Days!

Taking Flight!!

Our flight to and from Albuquerque was at the crack of dawn!!! Grampa likes to get an early start! Syd was so good and woke up w/ no complaint or crying. She was just so excited to get in the plane. Here we are on the runway departing Albuquerque and the sun is rising over the mountain.

To Albuquerque We Go

Lauren is turning *3* YAH.. so Syd, Gramee, Papa and I am headed to Albuerque in the morning!! Papa (or Grampee as my kids say) is flying the plane and we have an early departure at 6:30am!! We are excited to go in Papa's plane but we are sad the Carter, Alex and Kennedy can't come. I am sure they will have their own little party at home!! :)
