Happy Happy Birthday

We've had an exciting week. Lainee turned one on the 18th. On her actual birthday we were in Bear Lake camping for a family reunion. On the way down (finally getting to face frontward) she was getting a little tired of the car, so we pulled out an apple juice box, she thought that was soooo cool. That was fun, and then we had a party for her on Sunday. I had the idea for the cake, and Nick was the mastermind behind the design, so I thought he did an excellent job. Lainee liked to just grab fingerfuls of frosting rather than actually eat the cake, but whatever, I figure it's her birthday she can do what she wants.

Then Monday was my birthday, the big 23 for me, and Nick made me my favorite cake, red velvet, and sent me for a pedicure! I know the cake looks a little sketchu, but it tastes good. Nick is so good to me! Lucky for me, my birthday isn't over. I get to go out tonight with some friends for pie. Yum!

Update on the marathon training, still going. The training is going well for both of us. Last Saturday we ran 16 miles, definitely an awesome accomplishment for both of us. Next week we've got another long one, 20 miles. Then it shortens down until the marathon. August 23rd, wish us luck! We're going to need it! Also, we've recruited two in-laws for the marathon, Sheila and Mike. Any more family and friends are invited. The more the merrier! If you don't feel up to a full, there is also a half and 5k that day. Come run with us!! http://www.mesafallsmarathon.com/
