September 23rd- This Day in History

Jace and I

1998

Isn't it funny how time flies? Don't get me wrong some of the day-to-day things seem slow (is it bed time yet?, Jace won't be home until...?, mom and dad have only been gone 5 months?) But in all honesty time flies.

September 23rd, 2000.
Jace and I were in college. We drove up to Mesa Falls with a few roommates, who by the way knew what was going to happen on this day. We walked down to the waterfalls and admired them. Jace pulled me aside at one point and while looking over the largest fall got down on one knee and asked me to marry him! FYI we had been dating for several years (as the photo above proves) and we knew we'd get married, but this was, the real thing. FINALLY! Wow, I can't believe that was 8 years ago. This day in history is one of my favorite. Do you think he'd ask then if he could rewind time?

September 23rd, 2007
This was the day of the fitness celebration last year. After the run, Meg, Jamie and I went to lunch. We were talking about babies. I asked "Who do you think will have the next baby?" Meg and Jamie were "trying", but I wasn't. It was a fun topic. However, that night when I went home I realized I was "late". I kinda freaked, bought a test, and freaked out more. This day in history is when I found out we were going to have another little baby. That was a year ago, time flies!

Rain, Rain and more Rain

Jamie said it hadn't rained since July 22nd...until today. This morning we woke up to loud, but awesome, thunder and lotsa rain. I'd normally listen and watch the storm, but today was the WOMENS FITNESS CELEBRATION!! In case you aren't familiar it's a little 5K.

The only waterproof pants I have are snow pants...I can't wear those. The jacket I was wearing I thought was waterproof, but I soon found out, it wasn’t; I should’ve known since it was from the GAP. But we still ran, cheered, laughed, got extremely wet (especially our feet) and finally went out for breakfast.

Jamie, Tess and I before we started Here we are waiting for our wave to be called. It was still raining so we waited in the entrance of a parking garage.

Meg was our entertainment. She stood over the vent and did a little dance...That's how she warms up...
Then she pulled out Marilyn. Meg-I wasn't going to put this on, but I couldn't help it. I laughed so hard when I saw this picture.
Tess and I stopped to take a picture of all the runners. We were faster than all those people...jk. There were probably at least twice as many people in front of us.
All done...ready to get in the car and dry off!!! It was fun, we'll do it again next year.

Love You Daddy

This is for Daddy while you are gone, we love you!

Is This Jace's Boy or What!?!?!

I don't really have anything else to say in this post except-Look at him! He looks just like Jace, I love it!! He's so cute.

Little Maeley's Falling From the Sky

We took Maeley para shooting and she never had a shoot attached to her!!!

Just kidding, but she has been cooped up in the house a little more this week because I had my wisdom teeth taken out. No pictures of that thanks. But after playing what she calls "ball game" with Jace she wanted to be tossed into the air. She loves being tossed!!! We were laughing pretty hard...until Jace dropped her. Just kidding again!!!
