TREEHOUSE MUSEUM

A FEW WEEKS AGO JEFF AND I MADE A QUICK TRIP TO UTAH TO SEE THE KIDS FOR THE WEEKEND. WE DECIDED THAT IT WOULD BE FUN TO TAKE HAILEY SOME PLACE THAT WE COULD INTERACT WITH HER, SO WE DECIDED TO GO TO THE TREEHOUSE MUSEUM. WE HAD NEVER BEEN THERE BEFORE AND I WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH THIS KIDS MUSEUM, IT HAS SO MUCH FOR THE KIDS TO SEE AND DO.

THEATER TIME. LITTLE BO PEEP LOST HER SHEEP AND HAILEY HAPPILY

FOUND HER.

PLAYING WITH THE PRINCESSES AND PONIES WITH GRANDPA.

ROCKING AND READING

THIS GIRL LOVES PUTTING PUZZELS TOGETHER.

LOOK AT THE FOCUS IN THAT CUTE FACE.

I THINK THIS PICTURES SAYS IT ALL....PLAYTIME IS OVER.

IT WAS SUCH A FUN PLACE AND WE HOPE TO GO BACK ANOTHER DAY.

THE CHALLENGE IS ON

SISTER

A WEEK OR SO AGO AFTER POSTING MY LOWLEY PERSONAL RUNNING BEST, MY SISTER, AND YOU KNOW WHICH ONE YOU ARE, SENT ME A TEXT THAT SHE HAD RUN HER PERSONAL BEST OF TWO MILES. EVEN THOUGH SHE BEAT ME TO THE 2 MILE MARK I AM THRILLED THAT SHE IS WORKING TOWARDS OUR PLAN TO RUN A 5K THIS SUMMER. LATELY I HAVE HAD A HARD TIME GETTING ON THE TREADMILL, BUT I HAVE STILL BE GOING TO MY TOTAL BODY CONDITIONING TWICE A WEEK AND TONIGHT AFTER WORK I GOT ON THE TREADMILL AND REALIZED HOW MUCH MY CLASS IS HELPING ME. I RAN A NON-STOP, NON-PAUSE 2 MILES AND IT FELT GOOD AND I ACTUALLY RAN 2.1 MILES TONIGHT. YEAH FOR ME. SISTER....THE CHALLENGE IS ON LETS KEEP GOING SO WE CAN RUN THAT 5K THIS SUMMER TOGETHER.

AND AS I SIT HERE WRITING THIS BLOG AND EATING MY BELOVED DOVE DARK CHOCOLATE ALL BY MYSELF ON VALENTINES DAY BECAUSE JEFF IS OUT OF TOWN, THIS IS THE PICTURE I FOUND ON PINTEREST TO GO ON MY POST...HA HA HA!

SKI REPORT

THIS WINTER HAS BEEN SO DIFFERENT FROM LAST WINTER. THIS YEAR WE HAVE HAD VERY LITTLE SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS AND NEXT TO NOTHING IN THE VALLEYS. EVERY SNOWFALL THAT WE HAVE HAD THIS YEAR HAS NOT STAYED ON THE GROUND FOR VERY LONG, MAYBE JUST A FEW DAYS AND THEN ITS MELTED AWAY. LAST YEAR WE DECIDED THAT WE WERE NOT GOING TO BUY A SEASONS PASS TO TARGHEE THINKING THAT WE WOULD TRY TO GO OTHER PLACES TO SKI AND NOT BE TIED TO ONE RESORT, HOWEVER WITH THE LACK OF SNOW EVERYWHERE WE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY WHERE EXCEPT TARGHEE AND ONLY A HANDFUL OF TIMES. WE ARE SO EXCITED FOR OUR TRIP TO ITALY THAT WE HAVE WANTED TO GET OUT ON THE SLOPES TO SKI SO THAT OUR SKI LEGS WOULD BE READY FOR THE OVER 400 LIFTS AND HUNDREDS OF MILES OF SKIING AWAITING US.

( i am pretty sure we wont make a dent in those numbers).

YESTERDAY WE WER ABLE TO GO SKIING AND WE WENT ON A RUN CALLED PAINTED PONY OR SOMETHING, I DON'T RECALL THAT I HAVE EVER BEEN ON THAT RUN BEFORE AND I AM SURE THAT IT WAS NOT THE FAVORITE RUN OF THE DAY BUT THE ONE THING THAT I LOVED ABOUT THAT RUN WAS THE SPECTACULAR VIEW OF THE TETONS. I ASKED JEFF TO GET A PICTURE FOR ME, BUT WHEN WE GOT HOME IT WASN'T ON HIS CAMERA, SO I FOUND A PICTURE ON THE INTERNET. AND EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A NICE PICTURE I THINK THAT THE VEIW YESTERDAY WAS EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL. THE SKY WAS BLUE, THE SUN SHINING AND IT WAS JUST A SPECTACULAR VIEW. MAYBE ANOTHER WEEK WE CAN GET A PICTURE TO SHARE. PRAYING FOR A LITTLE MORE SNOW FOR NEXT WEEKEND.
