The Grotto

My friend from work suggested we check out a place in Payson Canyon called "The Grotto". Once we got there, I realized I had driven past the turn off for it dozens of times on my way to Payson Lakes. It was an easy hike, Livvy, Micah and Molly loved it. Thanks for the suggestion Adrie. It was great fun!

2009 Greer Family Reunion

Becky and Wes hosted a great Greer family reunion this year! We got to spend the night at the Heber Valley Girls Camp. What a neat place it is! We were so glad that Chip, Stephanie and girls could join us too (all the way from Texas even!) Here are some pics from our weekend. The last slideshow is of some of us going down the zip line on the ropes course. It was a blast!

Six years ago today...

I married my best friend!

Thanks for 6 wonderful years, Kenny. I can't wait to spend infinity more together.

Wasatch Back Revisited

This was the second year I ran the Wasatch Back. I had a much better time this year, mainly because I only had to run my designated legs, not any extra! I was runner #12 so I was the very last runner and ran across the finish line (my last leg was 5 miles, which I ran in 40 min after only 2 hrs. of sleep!)
My vanmates were Liz (used to work at TRH with me, her old roommate Lauren and two girls from Liz' old ward, Sarah and Sahra, and Sahra's husband Casey. We were van #2 so we ran throughout the night, :( But Casey was a trooper, running his 9 mile leg (which was changed from 5 miles ) on a pulled hamstring. He also ran the first half of the RAGNAR, an 8 mile stretch with an elevation gain of 2000 ft! We got a little delirious during the early hrs. Our jokes were gold mines like, "How do you wake up Lady Gaga? Poker Face!"....guess you had to be there! The last leg for all of us was in the rain, but we finished in less time than our team last year.
I know some will say we're crazy, but we plan to run it again next year! Even Kenny wants to join!

The Extreme Team!!

Here I am crossing the finish line! Also my vanmates and my after picture and a picture of our whole team. It was lots of fun! Can't wait till next year!!

Kelly Clarkson Concert

I was able to go to the Kelly Clarkson concert with my two sisters, Cari & Wendy, and my niece, Ali. It was a lot of fun. It rained up until the concert and then sprinkled a little during, but that didn't stop anyone from having a good time. The only thing that kept me from having a good time was this big kid who decided to turn around and spit on my coat I was just about to sit on. He offered me $5 to make up for it. I just asked him to at least wipe it off. He made up for it by entertaining Cari and I throughout the concert by dancing and singing.

The kid in green is the spitter.

Summertime fun

If you live in Utah you will know these picture are old because the weather the past two weeks has been more like March than June.
On one of the few hot days we have had this month, Livvy and Micah cooled off in the sprinklers. Molly joined them after a while too. Of course they had to make the day perfect by ending with a Popsicle. Yummy!

So proud of my hubby!

Kenny and I ran the Provo Riverwood's 10 mile race this morning. It was Kenny's first race ever and he did awesome! He finished 10th in his age category, with a time of 92 min. 38 sec. Pretty impressive. I am so proud of him and appreciate him taking up running so we can share a common interest.

Our next race is the Freedom Run. It is a 10k on the 4th of July. Baylie is going to run it with us also. We are all preparing for a half marathon in January. If you are going to the parade in Provo, look for us!
