Let's get physical

Mike and I have been exercising for the past 3 months. Every morning we wake up at 5:30 am and get to the gym by 6 am. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays we do a 30-35 min walk/run and then lift weights. Tuesdays, Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays we walk/run for 45 min.
Mike has signed up for the Isagenix body challenge. He could win a total of $10,000! Woo hoo! What great money to go towards adoption! He is half way through and has lost 85 lbs! He is doing so well! So keep your fingers crossed...
We raced in a 5K in the middle of December. I always thought that people were crazy running every day. But when you do a race, it's WAY more fun! I still don't like running during the week, but running for something makes it a little more fun! SO.....
We just signed up for two triathlons. The 1st is on May 15th in St. George. This will just be a sprint triathlon (.5 mile swim, 20K bike ride, and 5K run). The 2nd is on September 18th in St. George also (Kokopelli). This one will be an Olympic triathlon which is double the distance of a sprint! Are we crazy? I think so....

Lots O' Fun!

Talk about being at the right place at the right time! I took my neighbors some goodies I made so I didn't have them in my house anymore and it just so happened she is a scuba diver for the Le Reve show at the Wynn. She had extra tickets for that night and she gave them to me! Michael wasn't feeling good and had to work in the morning so I took Liz. It was way fun! We also got free flat bread pizza at a little restaurant. We were able to walk around a little and the floors were awesome! We decided to start collecting all our extra broken plates to turn our floors into masterpieces!




































On Thanksgiving day Michael played football with ours and Mountain's Edge ward. He is so funny. He can push you with one finger and you'd go flying. So that's what he did with one guy and they guy flew backwards and fell. It was kinda funny.
After that game Michael and I went to play football with our friends. It was fun...and we won! Then we hung out with Michael's mom, her husband Chris and his mom. It was nice hanging out with them.
After that we went to my family's house and hung out with them for a little bit. It was a nice Thanksgiving!













































Then on Saturday we were able to go to the UNLV vs. SDSU game. Michael never likes to go to or watch the games because he thinks he is their curse. Well not this time. WE WON 28 to 24! Go Rebels! Maybe Erik and Amy cancelled out the curse...
