The Olympics

So I think more than almost anything else I love watching the Olympics, because of the amazing passion that so many of the athletes have for the sport. There is also something heart warming about watching the joy when they win. Some day I'll be able to go to the Olympics live... that's a dream that I'll have to get to some day.

Gunlock- Jaxon

So since I've been wanting to take more pictures I decided to chase my cousins son around this weekend to see if I could catch any good pictures of him. He's so funny. We were outside feeding the horses and playing around on the tractor. We had to run everywhere, because that's how much energy he has. So cute, that's all I have to say!

Gunlock- Birthdays

So my brother and sister have the same birthday (and not they aren't twins). They just got lucky enough to have the same birthday. We pulled out the Happy Birthday banner and celebrated while we were up in Gunlock. I'm not sure who opened more presents, Julie, Rob or Jaxon. It was still enjoyable for everyone. Happy Birthday, birthday kids! (not really kids anymore).

Gunlock- Hike

When I was up in Gunlock last weekend I went for a hike with my Dad out behind the house. We ended up hiking to the top of a hill. The view from the top was amazing and definitely worth the hike. You could see most of the valley. It was such an amazing view we had to get a couple of panorama pictures. Beautiful!

Thunderbird Park Hike

I realize that these pictures are a little late, since we went hiking over a week ago, but here they are. Since Michelle and I have decided to go hiking every Saturday morning I'm sure you'll get to see lots of pictures of different parts of Phoenix. Thunderbird Park is located north of Phoenix and it was a gorgeous day to see the valley.

90,000 miles

I reached a milestone in my car yesterday.... I hit 90,000 miles. The car is only about 5 years old, but I've definitely gotten lots of miles on it in those five years. Can't believe I drive that much, but I'm always up for adventure so it doesn't surprise me. Here's to the next 90,000 miles!

Where Did January Go?

So it dawned on me this week that time just continues to get faster and faster. I mean I typically just go week to week thinking about the things that I need to get done, but they seem to pass so quickly and not much seems to have changed. I guess that's what happens when so much time is sucked up going to work each week. I guess I'll just have to make the most of the rest of my time. Well at least for the other 11 months this year!
