inspirations

I've decided to start running again for exercise. We'll see how it goes but I'm hoping it goes well. As for my inspiration to get started again...it's a couple of things: (1): Luke-he's been running lately and doing P90X. I'm very proud of him because he has stuck with it and made me want to be good too. (2): Going skiing in December-have to be in shape otherwise the mountain will win! (3): my new running shoes.

Here's to running!

summertime

Amazing that summer is almost over. It doesn't feel like it is almost over. The heat has been unbearable these past couple of weeks. I like always long for the cool crisp air of fall and everything it brings with it. My favorite time of year starts around October 1 and goes through December 31. There are so many things that I am looking forward to this fall and winter.

In approximately 8 days I will be starting my last semester in NP school. I have a hard time believing this, that I have actually made it this far! It's kind of a surreal feeling.

And as soon as the semester is over, my whole family is going skiing in Colorado! This is something that my heart longs for. I can't wait to spend a week with my family and watch my husband learn how to navigate the slopes for the first time ever. I can't wait to share the magic of Leadville in winter with him. I could go on and on and on about my excitement but I'm afraid it would bore people.

As summer comes to an end there is always my little mans (Wilder-my nephew) birthday. I have a hard time believing he is 4 already! It's amazing to see how much he has grown and how beautiful his heart and soul are. He is such a kind-hearted, sweet little man that absolutely adores his family and LOVES his Uncle Luke (pretty sure the feeling is the same from Luke to Wilder)! I love this little kid with all my heart and might. I love his little sisters, mom and dad with all my heart and might too. They are such amazing people that I proudly claim as mine.

Happy Birthday Wilder Blake!
