Life is a Fairytale

First things first....the blog change... Now that the season is in full swing and our life revolves around it I decided we would do a little rearranging! I am excited to document the season and share our inside perspective with you! Just a disclaimer with the title I don't necessarily consider myself a "beauty" it just worked with the title and was a fun feminine way to describe a wife....so I will claim it:)

Speaking of the title it really got me thinking about fairy tales and my life started to parallel one!

Meet my Fairy God-Mother:

My mom(the one on the right) with Nicole

Isn't she so beautiful! My mom is the epitome of a fairy god-mother some how she can get to you in an instant when you need her she helps provide any means or motivation for dreams you may have. She helps with any needs and even wants you may have. She is one of the most thoughtful people I know and I want to be like her when I grow up!

Meet my (not so evil) step mother:

Lisa is just amazing! One day at work I got a call that she had something for us and soon after she dropped off a load of groceries for us just because she wanted to be nice! She will never know how big of a help that was! We were in need of a grocery trip but just had NO TIME! I will always be grateful for that and I just consider myself SO LUCKY!!!

Lisa is always thinking of us and she has motivated us to keep our eyes open and serve others.

Meet my Pumpkin Carriage:

I am not the biggest fan of Halloween I don't like the scary, haunted, creepy idea BUT, I love seeing the fun and creative (not scary) costumes, carving pumpkins, making pumpkin seeds, and eating my moms goblin stew. These are our pumpkins this year

My Glass Slippers:
I am just in love with my running shoes. I have been working hard to get my legs back to race pace and it hasn't been fun. I have experienced some sort of injury every year since I broke my feet my senior year in a race and finally I HAVE NONE! (knock on wood) I haven't wanted to race until I felt back to race pace but, my mom and I decided to run a halloween 5k in American Fork.....and....IT WENT WELL! I came in 5th Women's Overall and 1st in my age division! My mom also came in 2nd in her age division! It was a small race but, it was good motivation to keep me going. I still need to get my time down ALOT but, I will get it there...eventually:)

My Prince Charming:

Life with Josh just gets better and better! I am so grateful to be his wife! He makes me and everyone around him laugh! I am so proud of him and I love watching him play and I am excited for the upcoming season and I know he is going to do SO WELL!!!
