Dogs N' Rocks

I woke up the other morning to some loud thumps at 7am. What the..... I go into the office where Beef Stew sleeps at night to check on him and notice this



Beef had pushed out the window screen, I look outside and see the neighbors GORGEOUS alaskan malamute type dog in our front yard. I let beef outside to go see him and they did this for 2 hours straight












Gosh they loved on each other and played and played and played. I just love the sight of two dogs playing, its pure JOY.

























OH and we got ROCKS....... my awesome manly husband put rocks in up against our house where it used to be just dirt, it looks SO much better.

The lion habitat at the Mgm Grand



I was trying to point out the lions to Crew, and all he could say was "BALL", looking at the big balls in there for the lions to play with. I finally got him to look at the lions and all could say was "Beef Stew"



Crew and Isaiah, at the rain forest cafe at the Mgm Grand.

It was so great to spent all that time with Robin and my awesome nephews. I love you guys so much :)

JAZZ FEVER

Last Thursday night Jared and I went to the Jazz game. It was game 3 of the playoffs against the Lakers. Its was such a exciting, fun game. It was really close the whole time, and Darron Williams put them up 2 points with 2 seconds left at the end. Kobe tried for the 3 but it was a no go. I'm glad we got to see some great playing before the Jazz pussed out the last 2 games. Although I have to hand it to Kyle Korver, Paul Milsap and Ronnie Price, who played awesome in the 4th quarter in game 5 last night.






We sat right behind the Lakers, and right next to their portal



Here's me taking a picture in my seat, just to give you an idea of how awesome these seats were



Here's Jared giving bones to some of the Lakers. Kobe stubbed us, but Paul Gasol and Lamar Odem gave us some love



Just after the game. I have to say thanx to my babe for such an awesome date night.

Dropping the P90X ball

So I started the workout series p90x one week ago, the last few days have been crazy. I've been gone all day, I've been really tired and feeling like I'm getting sick. So yesterday and today I didn't do my workouts and tonight I ate a bowl of cereal, ok like a bowl and a half of Kashi honey sunshine (which is the bomb btw) and a couple handfuls of crackers to comfort myself from such a rough day. arrrgghh! I was doing so good with the diet too. Freak, ma by if I practiced what I preached (intuitive eating) I'd be better off. OK just let me say it I'M ADDICTED TO DIETING. There's just something about that high you get from losing 5 or 10 pounds really fast, and you feel skinny, and hot and confident, and like you can conquer the world. Oh, and then reality sets in, deprivation that is, or you have a rough day and turn to the cupboard to comfort yourself. Will I ever find a balance between having the body I want and eating what I want to eat??? THAT IS THE ETERNAL QUESTION

Where are my Magazines???

I bought a 2 year subscription to US WEEKLY from a door to door sales girl. She said it would take 4-6 weeks to get my first magazine. That was 7 weeks ago!!! Maby I'm jumping the gun on freaking out about it. But I think I may have been scammed. I JUST WANT MY FREAKIN TRASHY CELEBRITY MAGAZINES!



Check out this oldie but goodie. Newlyweds was one of my favorite shows. Jessica is so freaking retarded, she'll never do better then Nick

6 Tunnels to Hoover Dam Half Marathon

Gosh its been forever since my last post. Not much has been all that blog worthy, Except that I finally ran the half marathon I'd been training for since December. It was March 14th in Boulder City, NV just outside of Las Vegas. I went down there with Kass Thurs-Sun. It was a great girls weekend and a lot of fun. I didn't bring my camera to the race because I did not want to have it on me the whole run, and it was a ways from our car to the start line. But thanx to Zazoosh.com, who were there taking pictures I have some to post



Start line



Just starting off on the paved portion of the race. There were 1100 runners between the half marathon, relay and 5k.





Yes, there was a full on bag pipe player



So focused



Beautiful Lake Mead behind me



The lady behind me was wearing orange snake skin print spandex, SEXY!




Crossing the FINISH LINE!!!



There's Kass





Kass just coming out of one of the tunnels



This was a St. Patricks Day event so almost everyone was wearing green and some people got pretty decked out, like this guy



And this chick



A trip to Vegas is not complete until you have seen Elvis





And check out these little dude's bookin it, I'm not sure if they were in the half marathon or not, probably more likely that they did the relay or the 5k, but either way that's pretty impressive

This race was FUN, EXCITING, GRUELING and extremely challenging for me. I was pretty ok the first 8 miles, the next 2 started getting really hard and the last 3 miles may have been the most physically challenging experience of my life, next to natural childbirth. I had 2 goals going into this race, I wanted to cross the finish line and run the whole time, I did both. When I finished I felt so amazing, I was so proud of myself. I set a goal, worked hard to achieve it and I did it. I finished in 2 hours 36 minutes. Which was great for me and my first race. WHAT A AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!
