Color Run

Before the run
Have you heard of the Color Run? For my birthday this year I decided that I wanted to do something fun and healthy. So Kurtis and I ran the color run together. And honestly I can't remember what he did for the rest of the day because it was so long ago.

This was out first 5k, and it really helped us catch the running bug. Which to be honest I am still not completely in love with. The thing that I love so much about themed races, is the fact that you are have fun. And thus, completely forgetting that you are running.

Now that Kurtis and I have done 3 themed races, I have come to the conclusion that neither of us are particularly good looking while running. I mean let's be honest, no one really is. The only people who look beautiful after running for 3 plus miles are ridiculously good looking people who don't sweat, and are always smiling.

BTW my theighs are not that big, those are packets of color!



Crossing the finish line together!


If you ever see pictures that the organizations themselves post on Facebook, or on their websites. They are always of happy, smiling, beautiful people, who look even more amazing covered in mud, and or colored chalk. I mean come on ! I see these pictures on Pinterest of amazingly beautiful people running and it gives me false hope.  A hope that if I sign up for this race, I too will be beautiful, fit, and look even more adorable covered in Color. And soon my adorable picture will be all over the internet and I will be the new face of whatever themed race I choose... This my friends is not true. And for proof I submit these photos to the jury.

I guess it is true... the camera adds 10 pounds and ruins my self confidence.

Kurtis graduated from Law School, I was very proud and a little overwhelmed . I am so proud of him and all of the hard work that he has done over the last three years.

His and Her day out

Today Kurtis and I went our separate ways for a girl and boys day out.

I went with some of my closest girl friends to the Ellen show it was so much fun and I danced my heart out! After the show the girls and I went out to this yummy place and got some great bratwurst.This is us waiting in line to go in I am the only one not holding up my number!

Kurtis on the other hand met up with two of his mission companions and spent the day at Disneyland. In between all of the rides there was lots of talking about the mission, the ladies in their lives and future jobs. A good time was had by all let's do it again soon ladies and gents!

Kitchenaid Love

For our three year anniversary on Monday Kurtis and I had a really simple night, it could not have been better.

We went out to dinner at Claim Jumpers which is where we had our first date we came home and exchanged gifts and then watched some episodes of our favorite show psych.

I got a KitchenAid, yes that is right my sweet wonderful amazing handsome hubby bought me a kitchenaid. This marriage now has a fourth person in it (the third being the dog.)

There was a point that night when I looked over at my dear Mr. and said "Man I wish everyone was as happily married at we are." It is true that we don't have everything. We don't have a baby, but we do have out sweet Audrey Puppy who I think is pretty swell. We don't have a lot of money but we do have food and a roof over out head. We don't have a house but we have a little apartment home that is full of love.

I am greatful for what I have and what I have been given and that is- A stinkin awesome husband who is hot and gives me a kitchenAid mixer!

26

Kurtis turned 26 on August 31 I am so grateful for him and for all that he does. I was able to spoil him a bit with the help of his brother Kevin and his wife and girls. We got to spend a lot of time with them at Disneyland and of course the girls wanted to ride with "Uncle Kurtis." He also got somethings that he (I mean we) wanted.


And Audrey got to eat some leftover cheesecake

Easter Sunday

He is risen!

Happy Easter!

I've been thinking a lot about Easter and the significance of this Holiday. For me it is so overwhelming to think that Christ Died for me, he suffered all of my sins, all of my pain and grief.Every tear that I have cried, he has as well. I am so grateful for my Savior and for his resurrection and the way that it blesses the lives of myself and my family everyday.

Okay on to the fun stuff!

I got to sing today in church with our awesome choir and hangout with my cutie pie nursery kids, I love them all so much they are such a fun bunch.

We also headed up to Costa Mesa today to spend time with family, we took a walk on the beach and took pictures with

MY NEW CAMERA!
It has been almost two years since our camera broke we have been wanting one for so long but did not have the money to get one. Kurtis got a $100 gift card for using Lexis Nexis and used that to buy me this little beauty. This also counts as my Christmas present from last Christmas because we were to poor for presents and my Valentines Day because we spent Valentines Day on a plane!

Thanks Baby your the best!

Sports Weekend


I'm back from a little blogging break.

We had a lot of sports going on in out house last weekend.

Friday was golf and then over the weekend we had work softball.

Kurtis took me to the driving range on Friday afternoon, it was a lot of fun. We worked on my "athletic stance." which is "Just like a chair pose" We also worked a little of my swing, but I mostly just sat back and watched Kurtis go at it, hitting things makes him so happy.


"Give me a T- Gimme a E- gimme a A- gimme a M what does that spell TEAM"
Disney co-ed soft ball started a few weeks ago. We haven't won any games but it is a ton of fun. And so is going to TGI Fridays afterward.

I have learned a few things from my recent dive into sports
1) Softballs are not soft
2)slow pitch is very slow
3)Everything seems better if you yell at the umpire
4)It's even better if you can get the umpire to play on your team because most of the time they are really good.
5) I know what you are thinking and "No that is not cheating."

Its a good thing that I have two weeks off from softball so I can work on my batting skills.

Chicken or Beef





Sometimes a gal just needs to get all dressed up and go to a ball. So I did.

Last night was the Barristers Ball an annual event that Western State throws, there is dinner dancing , debauchery and awards. Honestly the best part was watching Kurtis's Dean show his freaky side on the dance floor.

The food was yummy and very fancy, my fillet was awesome. The location was the Los Coyotes country club they even had free valet, note to self remember to clean out all of the Taco Bell wrapers from the car before going to fancy pants country club. But hey it was free right?

The best part of the night (beside Dean Adams getting down) was Kurtis getting the Witkin award for the highest grade in Torts ! We snapped a few pictures and took the rest in the sweet photo booth that they had.

This weekend

This weekend I'll be here


Trying my best to overcome my fear/hatered of flying and trying to stay dry because it is supposed to rain ALL WEEKEND. Maybe I'll bring some of my California sunshine, but more then likely it wont work and I'll spend my time watching people catching fish at Pikes Place market and wondering around trying to find vampires who sparkle.

Can I just tell you

Can I just tell you how much my husband rocks? Well he does! Kurtis has always been one of those really annoying people who never have to study for anything and still get an "A." Apparently that trend is continuing through Law School. He got his grades back and lets just say he rocked this last semester. In fact he did so well that other schools are going to try to steel him.

I guess it goes like this- at WSU if you do well they want you to stay so in order to stop you from transferring to a better rated school they will offer you all kinds of perks like study abroad or a summer fellowship.

It is true, we did think about leaving Southern California and all of its amazingness for Provo and BYU Law, but after a day we decided that California is just so much better. So Kurtis is looking at some other law schools in Southern California that are within driving distance because I'm not moving. Or maybe he will stay at WSU and see what they offer. Who knows! I am just so happy that he passed his classes and I get to have him for two more weeks before he dives back into the books for his second semester.

Reason # 2 why I love my husband

Kurtis has many wonderful qualities, he is a great cudler, he makes fantastic fried rice (he ad's bacon) and every once and a while he lets the cleaning fairy (me) take a break.

Warning these images may make you a little jealous!



Kurtis proved what a great hubby he is by steam cleaning the living room to help me get ready for book club on Saturday.Speaking of which will you be there? All of the cool kids will. Even if you didn't read the book come on over to my place on Saturday at 11:00 am for a good time! And food too!
