oh summer!

It's been a busy month of June! I ran a half marathon and survived! We did it in 2:04, which is WAY faster than I thought I could do it! It was a beautiful run, the scenery and the weather were gorgeous! We ran the whole time (except for the water stations!) and it was seriously SO much fun! I'm so glad that I did it and that I got to do it with such amazing friends. Seriously, they helped me train and get through it and it was AWESOME!! I am now addicted...I want to run more races so bad! I just have to be careful, because my doctor told me that too much running can mess with my chances of getting prego even more. So I will take it easy!

Next up was our trip to Utah!! We drove there, which was good and bad. Good because I got to hang with my man and baby girl for like 13 hours straight, and I had TONS of room for all the shopping I did....BAD because 2 year olds don't like being in a car for 13 hours (neither do I!) and you can't escape when said man gets annoying! Haha just kidding honey! It wasn't too bad, Bella did so well, she slept tons, and we watched ALOT of movies....I have Happy Feet pretty much memorized, it's a cute movie! We stayed with one of Mason's friend from high school and his wife for a couple of nights which was SO fun! They have an adorable toddler just a little younger than Bella, so it was fun for her too! We stayed in Orem, and we got to go to Cafe Rio (yeah!!) and to a cool place called Gardner's Village where we shopped at vintage-y boutiques, fed ducks (well, kind of...) and went to a petting zoo! Bella even rode her very first pony, it was adorable!!!


After spending the weekend with Brandon and Melissa, we headed to Salem to stay with Mason's cousin and her hubby, who is part owner in the company Mase works for. He was training him for a couple days, so I got to go shopping BY MYSELF (I love going to Nordstroms with no hubby.... although dangerous it was FUN!) and hang out with Andrea. So much fun, we hit up Tocano's (so amazing, Bolero doesn't compare...)and hung out at their amazing house in Salem...Bella and Mase rode in their go-cart, we had delish barbeques and were really spoiled in the food department! I seriously love Utah, it is so gorgeous and the weather was fantastic!! But I hope I won't have to make that drive for like another year!!!
