last few weeks...

I've been a really bad blogger this summer... but here are a few things we've been up to.





Josh won the U.S.A. championships (at the end of june) It was of course so cool and amazing that he can be so awesome :) He had a great season, but it's not over yet. Next week he'll travel to Europe to race, come home for a week, go back to Sweden to race, come home for 2 weeks and go back to Berlin to compete in the World championships! Hopefully I'll be able to go to Sweden with him (but we just feel a little bit bad asking my parents to watch Millie b/c she still isn't sleeping through the night. sigh.)



After Josh won his race, he wanted to take Mill on the award stand with him. ha ha. So, he grabbed her from me and she went up there with him and held his american flag for him, she was so excited! She is sporting her "game-day outfit" a USA onsie from the Olympics.


A few days after we got home from Josh's race there was a family reunion at Bear Lake. We only made it up for a day but had a great time seeing cousins. My aunt was freaking out b/c she thought we were going to ride with Millie on the jet ski, but don't worry, we just grabbed her for the photo.


We went through Logan on our way to Bear lake, so OF COURSE we had to make a stop at Aggie ice cream. It was delicous, but I was very saddened to see that they no longer make my favorite flavor, peanut butter & Jelly (they said it was clogging up the machines) (p.s. this is my sister kelly with millie, we just found out she's having a baby in Jan. so we're way excited!) It made me so happy to drive through Logan! man, I love that place so much! I try to convince josh that we should live there but he won't hear of it. Go AGGIES! ha ha

We've spent alot of time in swimming pools. Mostly in a blow up pool in our front yard, but on 4th of july we went swimming at some "relatives" real pool... this girl loves to swim.

Our other 4th of july festivity (sp), the "Freedom Run" Josh and I both ran the 5k. Josh of course won, and I just did my best. This was my 2nd post Mill 5k and I'm starting to feel like I'm getting back into shape:) I ran a 20:21, 40 seconds faster than my last 5k, and the course was harder. I'm really enjoying running lately and am loving all the great places to run here in Ut. I'll really miss all the Mountains and canyons when we leave.

oh, and Millie didn't really eat that ice cream- she's to little huh? Josh is convinced that we need to start feeding her milk shakes, but I don't think it's time yet.

Way to go Josh. I'm glad you won the 4th of July 5K. Would have been really emberrasing if you didn't. :)

We wish we could have come down for the reunion. But alas....it wasn't to be had.

Tell Kelly and Sunny Congrats for us. That's so exciting!

You guys have been busy! That's so cute that Josh took Millie to the stand - that makes a great memory. Great work on your race as well. Even jogging isn't working for me anymore - my belly is too big and low. Oh well :)

Congrats to Josh on his race. That was amazing! It will definitely be a busy summer for you guys. I love MIllie's onesie- very cute. And, I am super impressed with your running. It makes me jealous that you're in such good shape and that I'm just getting bigger and bigger! =) (Although I definitely want this baby!)

I wondered about the ice cream--haha! And Matthew's not sleeping through the night either. :(

Congratulations to Josh! That picture with Millie is so cute.

Michelle said...

(I feel guilty saying that about the ice cream when I actually started Matthew on some milk last week--and he's only almost 11 months!)
