WHO KNEW?

- that hiring a personal trainer would be so beneficial. Today was my first visit and it was awesome! A little bit of bragging here...she was way surprised at how much I could do and my recovery times! She mostly tested me to see where I was at cardio wise. She also tested my core strength which was pretty good, considering I have now had 2 emergency c-sections. I am so dang excited about this new venture, I go back Thursday morning and we are going to hit the weights. Side note....high school football players, STINKY! Oh my gosh, of course they had to be there the same time I was. I can't believe they are already practicing, school has only been out for 1 week!

-That my kids would LOVE tennis lessons so much! Neither of them have ever played. We bought them tennis racquets last month, and they have been playing against the garage door. So, of course I was surprised when Hayden came out and said that they moved him to the advanced class because he was so good! Very Cool! Gracie loved it too. I am so excited to have found something they both like and can do together.

-that we could ever get too much rain. Seriously we live in the dessert. But it has been raining for a week straight and going on 10 more days! My tomatoes are not looking to great. They certainly do not like the hail!

- The movie "UP" was so good! We loved it. Monday night we all loaded up the car and went on the spur of the moment. Sophie cam along too, and did pretty good. It doesn't matter how old you are, this movie is a must see!

Alright, it's time for bed. hopefully tomorrow will go just as well as today plus maybe I can get some house work done. Happy Dreams ~E

If anything there is some sort of fulfillment after leaving the gym and knowing what your body is capable of. Just when you think you "can't" is when you "Can" I am excited to hear of your journey with a trainer! My best motivation has been challenges from other people so what do you think about doing a 5K with me oh let's say in September?? Even if we walk it! ;)
We could do one up in Logan if we can find one. What do ya say?

Sounds like a great day if you ask me.. I keep telling myself we are going to take the kids to see UP We just haven't done it yet.

We saw UP yesterday, and I agree that it is a must see! I would love a personal trainer...maybe some day. I still have not been able to add you on my blog. I just need your email address. :)

YAY for summer and planting a garden. We have tried to do a small one the past couple of years and it's great to eat something you have grown yourself instead of bought at the store.
Love Gracie's baptism pictures, she is so beautiful and congrats to her for her decision. I'm like you, I seem to get caught up in everything else instead of what is important.
Sounds like you guys are doing well!
Hope you have a great summer!
