Running




This is kind of old but I have been wanting to blog about it for awhile and now have the time to do it. A couple of weekends ago Cody was asked by one of his buddy's to fill in for him in a race, that he was suppose to do but he was going to be out of town and couldn't do it so he asked Cody if he could do it in his place. Cody said yes but also told him he hadn't ran much this summer so he might be a little slow, I still knew Cody would make good time. Me on the other hand if someone asked me to fill in at the last minute to run in a race I'm sure I would pass out a block into it, I guess it is a good thing I wasn't the one asked to run. Well Cody was on a team of four to run a Marathon around Provo, Cody had to run just under seven minutes and he finished in a great time. I was so proud of him and I was actually there at the finish line to see him, well actually I was parking the car when he finished so I wasn't able to cheer him on like I wanted to but I saw him finish.

Work

Well I finally started work last week, and I never thought I would say this but I was excited to start work again. Only because all summer Cody and I played together all summer long, because both of us had the summer off. Once Cody started school I didn't have anyone to hang out with any more. So I was filling my days with going to the gym, cleaning, and spending hours at Target wishing to buy everything but had no money to buy anything that I wanted. I'm pretty sure all of the Target employees were seriously wondering if I was homeless because I spent so much time there.
Work has been good so far I haven't started to teach yet. The kids first day of school is next Monday the 22ND, last week me and my co-teacher had to go visit our students at there homes to meet there families and to see what there home situations were like. It was neat to meet all of the kids one on one and get to play with them. This week we are putting our room together which seems like it is endless. And then we have training's for the second part of the week. I'm excited to have the kids come and to finally hang out with them and watch them grow into little flowers (OK that was cheesy but I just had to add it).

Labor Day Camping

We went camping over Labor day weekend we went up Friday and came home late Saturday Morning. It was a short trip but it was so much fun. We have been wanting to go camping with our friends Megan and Brad all summer. Our friend Kristi came home for the weekend and we decided we better go camping before the summer is over and we can't go. So Shannon, John, Kristi, Tiff, Brad, Megan and baby Abbie all went up and ate tin foil dinners, Cody and my favorite camping dinner and then we just hung out and played games until the late hours of the night. It was so much fun, I love camping!
