Crossfit Revolver

One of things I really wanted to do in Cancun was find a local crossfit box to do a workout.  Mark, Brandon and I went and did a fun workout.  I have never been so sweaty in my entire life - it was so hot and humid.  We did a partner wod and the coaches picked our partners - mine was awesome she was so much fun and spoke English.  Todd and I bought t-shirts from the gym  - and this might be a new tradition of mine to visit boxes when we go on a trip and get a shirt from there.

Driving Home

Well spring break 2014 was just as epic and I hoped it would be.  We hit the road and broke the drive up into 2 days again.  We slept at the Wal-Mart again (hilarious to me) and played Farkel (Claire killed us all) and had a nice easy drive home.  At one point during the drive I spotted Sophie's bum and it had 5 pair of underwear on ....when I asked her why she said everyday on vacation rather than change them she just added a new pair.  Oh Sophie.

The Caves

Our final day we did Jewel Cave and Wind Cave.  Sadly Wind Cave was closed when we got there so we just did the visitor center and the outdoor part (fine with me...being underground that long is creepy).  The kids did the Jr Ranger program again and got lots of badges.

My kind of Camping

Hooray for showers, toilets, beds, wifi and still being able to cook over the fire!




Favorite Childhood Memory

The thing I remember most about when I went to Mt Rushmore as a kid were the wild donkeys.  We would get out of the car and feed them carrots and apples.  We even put Heidi on the back of one when she was a toddler and it took off and bucked her off.  Sorry Heidi.  I was so excited for the wildlife loop and it was just as fun as I remembered it. 














Crazy Horse & Mt Rushmore

Today's adventure started with the Crazy Horse Monument.  It was HUGE and a very interesting story.  It will be cool if they are ever able to finish it.







Then we headed over to Mt Rushmore. I have so many fun memories of Mt Rushmore - it was fun to be back and to see the boys on the mountain.




The kids did the Jr Ranger program - and learned a lot of cool facts while having fun.

Passports



We got our passports!  Bring on Mexico.  We had to put them under lock and key because Sophie kept trying to take hers and put it in her purse or take it places.

The Beach

It wasn't fast or pretty and it was very hot but I did an 8 mile run from Todd's house to the beach.



It was such a beautiful and warm day - I can't believe it is December.  The kids played in the water for hours and even had to put on sunscreen!

Girls Weekend

I love the girls I run with.  I just love them.  We have so much fun together.  This year we got matching poop socks from Heather and Lyke watches from our "sponsor" Board Co.  We had a blast running the Snow Canyon half-marathon and then shopping, eating and visiting the Temple.
