Running!!

I am so proud of Steve!  He's been running his tail off and is perfecting his method of reaching any goal he sets.  His latest accomplishment has been running in two half marathons.  He's got high expectations for himself and I have no doubt he will succeed, he doesn't give up until he does.  I see that quality in Kaylee... she's got a great role model.

I enjoy running too but much rather run on the uneven terrain of the Dimple Dell park trails that are a two minute jog from our home.  I love, love, love being there as the sun is coming up and feeling the change in temperature as I go down the hills into little valleys.  It smells like the mountains and feels serene.  Seeing the sun come over the mountain peaks and land on the trees and beautiful scenery is one of my favorite moments.  I do plan to venture out to the asphault- I got a taste of it while doing the Race for the Cure with my dear sister and sweet ward friends.  It was refreshing to be out running with someone I could talk to.  The 'gully' trails are accompanied by our puppy in 'running training' and are my introspective time.
