Weekending ft. making an attempt a brand new exercise, coldest run of my life, 14 traditions + HOW HAS THIS HAPPENED?

(zip-up I like and need in additional colours AD)

I believe Saturday may go down as one of many coldest runs of my complete life. I headed out early, checked the forecast, noticed an opportunity of rain, and determined to danger it with out a jacket because it wasn’t raining once I left. Just a few miles in… growth. It began to pour.

It taught me the identical lesson I appear to relearn each December: overdressing > underdressing. You’ll be able to all the time shed layers… however there’s no warming up when you’re soaked and chilly. Seven miles @ 8:54 tempo.

I met up with a good friend on the health club who’s an skilled lifter, and she or he was extremely variety to assist me out. She launched me to reverse sled pulls, and by the tip, my coronary heart charge was sky-high, and my legs had been completely zapped.

Brooke had a scrimmage, and she or he was joyful to get to play once more. Winter is a protracted one for soccer gamers (however indoor will begin quickly)!

At all times in shorts.

Subsequent up was watching the BYU soccer recreation vs Texas Tech. We had been praying for a miracle, however the miracle didn’t occur.

One night time, we had the youngsters’ associates over and adorned sugar cookies (I didn’t love the recipe that I used… somebody give me a tremendous one, please)!

After which they determined to carry out karaoke, which I completely loved watching.

With a blended household and Andrew’s December work schedule, we tried to slot in as many Christmas traditions as doable over the weekend.

We bought a tree, and every picked out our 2025 ornaments.

We met with Santa. Brooked requested Santa for a boyfriend, and all of us died laughing. Beck requested for a Lego digital remote-control airplane (and specified that it wanted to be the Lego model, not off-brand). Skye requested for a Utah Mammouth mascot stuffed animal. Knox requested for a brand new singing voice;)

We even bought out to ski for the primary time of the season!

There was just one carry open, however it was simply what all of us wanted. An ideal warm-up for a lot of, many hours of snowboarding this season.

It’s our Skye Jo’s birthday in the present day, and it’s her fortunate one–> 8 on the eighth. This lady fills any room she enters with pure pleasure and laughter. She is extra passionate concerning the issues she likes to do than anybody I’ve ever met. She reads prefer it’s her job, adores the outside, is extremely athletic, graces us with completely timed one-liners, and needs to be together with her household (together with cousins/grandparents, and so forth) as a lot as she probably can. I like this little lady.

I can’t wait to have fun her in the present day.

When you have a second, want Skye a cheerful birthday, and she is going to learn them… If you wish to embrace the place you might be from and/or your favourite fruit, she would love that!
