October 15th

We had a fun weekend celebrating the passing of October 15th! It was so nice to have John home all weekend and relax!Friday night we went to Rascal Flatts with Jennie and Ryan. It was awesome! I first heard their songs when I went to BYU Idaho and thought they were fun. I have bought two CDs in the last 6 or 7 years, one of them was Rascal Flatts! (The other was Owl City)

The concert was fun, we had decent seats (anything looked better than the lawn area. A TON of drunk teens/college age kids with hardly any clothes on. We decided no concert would ever be fun if we had to go up there!) and of course the band was great!

After the concert we went and got McFlurrys :) Then I got up at 7 and went running with the kids at 7:30. A few girls from church started a running group. After we ran for a while we did some strength training, so basically like an aerobics class where we worked on different areas. It was so fun. I love classes! There is something so mental about it. I am totally fine doing something as long as you tell me when it will end. Soccer game? I know it will end sometime, so I can push myself the whole time. Swimming- I know how many more laps so I know where to use my energy, although this one is similar to running and a little tougher to know how much energy to use without exhausting yourself. Giving birth? After 2 hours of pushing (sans drugs) my doctor told me she had to go help someone else but she would be back in a half hour and the baby would be out. I was so relieved! As long as I know when the end is (or that it's coming) then I'm good! I love aerobics classes and doing this made me excited for our Groupon- 14 sessions at Club Sport between now and the beginning of December. I am going to figure out when classes are and get on it!
The rest of the weekend we hung out, watched the BYU game (not as fun as it used to be...), watched Letters to Juliet (very cute as expected), went to ward conference on Sunday and took naps and hung around the rest of the day. It was awesome.
