Running!

I have forgotten how much I love just getting outside to enjoy nature and fresh air while running! Plus there hasn't been any snow on the ground for two weeks!!! Eric is the one who forced me to get my butt off the couch and start working out with him, he always seems to know whats best for me! Well I didn't do it right away but I promised him that I'd get up with him one morning and run with him. Worst decision, I am not a morning person and I almost died of asthma attack and shock to the muscles. It was so hard!!! Well somehow I got myself to run the next day, but in the afternoon haha. Its amazing how much different my run went just by changing what time of day it was. Anyways, I Love my afternoon runs! Its not even that I love running, but I tell myself that it doesn't matter how fast or how far I run, I'm not running to work out, I'm running to get outside and get some fresh air while giving my body a little bit of endorphins to keep me happy for at least one more day! Its amazing how somehow I tricked my mind into loving the 30 min that I have to "work out" only because I don't treat it like a work out or weight loss time. Its just a me time! Brilliant right!! Well I love my runs now and I encourage everyone to get out in this spring weather and enjoy it by running, walking, or skipping. Really anything if only to get outside! I just realized that I love being outside because I've been cooped up all winter!! And I thought nothing good could come from winter, but now I have this new appreciation for out doors! Amazing!

Also to catch up on our life, We Spent my second half of Spring Break at my Sister in laws (Ambers) house in Orem, Utah with Eric. I got to spend a ton of time with my niece Lacey who Loves me now!!!!!! She wouldn't leave my side when I was in the room! She also learned my name and she calls me Coco, my nickname if anyones wondering. I love hearing her say my name! Its the best!! Also I enjoyed spending quality time with Amber teaching her how to crochet and watching HGTV laughing at all of the weird people. It was also so nice to spend time with Eric when he had no stress of school. He enjoyed relaxing all weekend, though I'm sure by the end he was getting bored, he likes being busy haha! It was a Great week! I can't wait to go back in June when Amber has her new Baby Ella! I miss Lacey already!!

I Love Lacey
