First Camping Trip of the Year

The weather was on the nicer side this weekend so T and I decided to go camping at Lake Trask ( a lake that my family owns property on near Shelton). So we packed the fishing poles and the quads and headed out early Saturday morning. We had lots of fun. Saturday was just gorgeous! We rode alot and fished alot! Both of my parents own their own lots so it was fun seeing my dad this weekend he is like a whole new man out in the wilderness. It is like he is young again. We brought hotdogs to eat and the only condiment we had for them was ketchup (my fav) T was a little disappointed that there was no mustard and relish so he loaded up his hotdog with more ketchup then I think I have ever seen on a hotdog! It was pretty funny watching him eat it! We did lots of hill climbs on the quads so I could conquer my fear and it seemed to work. T got up early on Sunday (5am) and went fishing with some friends of ours he came back around 10 with a 3.5lb trout!!! Lake Trask is a fishing only lake there are no motor boats aloud but this is by far in the 15years I have been going there the biggest fish I have seen come out of the lake! T learned to do something called trolling with a fly fish of course now he wants one of his own.

We saw Jordy practing Saturday morning!

Lazy Poster!



I have been soooooo lazy about taking pictures off my camera so here are some fun things we have been upto over the last month or so!




T and I bought some new toys - Quads to be exact. He got a TRX450 and I got a TRX 250! We have taken them out a couple of times and absolutly love them! Here are photos from our first outing with our new toys!
A few weeks ago Hunter and some of his friends were playing with air soft guns in the backyard so T and Brad got a bright idea to ambush them with T's guns! After they recruited jordan they went in for the attack! Here are some vidoes from that!

In this videos T is trying to dodge the bullets that Hunter are shooting at him!

SLC 1/2 Marathon

What a fun weekend! I really had such a fun time with T's family. Everybody who came ran something. The break down goes a little something like this Ang = marathon; Me, Kylee, and Jeff = 1/2 marathon; Jana, Cheryl, Kimm, Josh, Paytan, and Grace all did the 5K. the weather was super nice for a run except towards the end the wind start to pick up. I felt really good about my run! I started off smart like I wanted to doing slower miles to warm-up. At about mile 2.5 I picked up the speed and did 10 to 10:30 minute miles. I felt really good until I had to use the restroom around mile 9. I had to wait in line and when I started running again I had a hard time finding a groove again. I have been struggling with a chest cold for about a month and when I started to run again I felt like I just wasn't getting enough air in. So I slowed my pace and ended up finishing in 2:32:45! This is twelve minutes faster than my race in January!
here are some fun photos!
