Catch up...

 Remember that one time that I said I was going to be really good at keeping this blog updated? Ha!! Needless to say over a year has passed.

  N has this theory that if you tell people what your goals are, then you are less likely to accomplish them.  He says that communicating your goals to someone else simulates the same feeling as actually accomplishing that goal.  Maybe there is some truth to that.  I think that sometimes life just happens, and due to our inability to predict what is coming our way, some of our goals sometimes get put on hold. 

That being said I may or may not consistently post, but for now here is a quick catch up of our lives...(just in case ;)

N-
-Has been working for Novell as their Lead Management Rep since Oct 2011
-Currently Works with the young men in our ward as the Assistant Deacons Quorum Advisor
-Favorite hobby is currently paintball- member of a sponsored team: "Team Overspray"
-Teaches concealed firearm permit classes and NRA basic pistol shooting courses on the weekends
- still running his car business "YAW"- consistently helping about one client per month

L-
-Was promoted at 24 Hour Fitness as the Club Manager for the Taylorsville, UT club (I think I am the youngest CM in my region)
-Recently got released from the Primary Presidency in my ward, before that I served in the Young Women's Presidency
-Completed my first half marathon in June- loved it, so- I'm doing another one November 3rd!
-Last year my auto immune disorder got the best of me and ALL of my hair fell out (possibly more posts to come on that later)
-As a result of my health issues I have started a Gluten free life long diet (recipes to come later), and eventually plan to cut out almost all sugar as well
-I have also started working with a personal trainer twice a week... poor N has to be married to a baldy (definitely can be a mood killer), so I figured the least I could do was get in the best shape of my life (if I'm brave enough- before and after pictures to come later)

Us-
-Celebrated our 2 year anniversary in May
-Celebrated 4 years together in June

And the biggest news for our little family....

We're building a house! 



We are in love and so excited ;-)

New Goals and New Shoes

Lets start with new goals....

I am NOT a runner. That is about to change. I needed some fresh motivation to get back into a regular work out routine and so I have decided to run a half marathon this upcoming June. I have never run more than 2 miles at a time in my entire life so this will definitely be a challenge. I am excited, however to take the challenge head on! Not to mention, I am looking forward to losing few lbs along the way... is there something called the Newly Married 10? Tomorrow is the first day of my training :) This brings me to...

New Shoes...

Nothing motivates me to go the gym more than new workout gear :) On Friday Nick spoiled me and bought me some cute new shoes and workout clothes. Such a fun date night! I love my husband. He is the B.E.S.T.
