Back on our feet

Yay, Brandon found a job! He has been going to Salt Lake and Utah County the past couple of days to find a job. After going to meetings and negotiating things he has finally made his decision. He is happy with his decision and feels really good about it so I'm happy. I'm not going to lie this has been extremely difficult for me. I've been very moody and grumpy and down right depressed that this whole situation has put us back a bit. I feel really bad because I haven't been too nice to Brandon and I've put pressure on him to find a job quick even though it was good that he took his time to decided what direction he wanted to go. I told Brandon that I've been bummed because we sold somethings but then I have to be happy because at least we have our house and our cars.

In other news I'm excited because the girls our home just in time to try out for the competition team for the fall. I asked Mariah if she wanted to try out and she does so we will see how that turns out. Try outs will be June 8th or 9th so I will let you all know how the girls did. I e-mailed their dance teacher and told her what happened and she was so excited that Jazmin is back. Jazmin's little team have done awesome this season that they earned a pizza party and Misty told me to have Jazmin show up. I think it's this Wednesday (today) and we are still up North so she won't be able to go. As soon as we get home I am enrolling the girls in summer gymnastics. They loved when they did gymnastics last summer and it's something for them to do over the summer.

I'm considering running a full marathon this September! I know crazy huh. My friend just ran a 1/2 last weekend and she told me we should run a full. I have said no no because it takes up so much time with training and my kids are little and I wouldn't have time to run. I pulled up a training schedule for a full marathon and it wasn't that bad. Yes, it will be horrible on the weekends when the long runs are anything past 13 miles, but I think I can do it. I told my friend that I will start training now and in a month we will see where I am at. I told her that when we hit the 20 mile mark I am coming up North to run that with her cause there is no way I can run 20 miles by myself. I have started training and I am sooo out of shape. I got new shoes, thanks Brandon, and I ran 3 miles last weekend and I ran hard and I am soo sore! I ran 3 miles this morning and I was still sore from 3 days ago. Like I said I am just considering a full not set thing. I told my dad if I do run this full marathon that he needs to be there and ride his bike and cheer me on. I hope that my dad will come see me because when my mom and grandparents saw me run the Peach Days 10K it made me happy.

Well once we get all settled in our house I will put pictures up. Goodbye everyone.
