as of late...

One of our new year resolutions was to compete in an OLYMPIC (me)  and HALF IRON MAN (Ryan) distance triathlons. We've done a few Sprint distance and were up for a new challenge. We had such a busy summer, it was hard to stay consistent with our training. Signing up at the beginning of the summer made it hard not to back out.  At the end of August we competed in the Bear Lake Brawl, and can now check it off our list.  Feels good to be done! I am so proud of Ryan he did awesome for the little training that we did.  Swimming is definitely his strong suit, he was third out of the water!! Thank you Janelle, Kent, and Mason for cheering us on for 6 straight hours, and Dennis and Camille for letting us crash at their house!
In other news Ryan is now in GRAD school! He started his first day embarking on his MBA from the University of Denver. Like any good mother/ wife would do, his first day of school pic:
This weekend we hiked to the Royal Arch just above Boulder. I LOVE where we live!
