My First RAGNAR Del Sol Race 2012 February 24-25th

This Year we were given a team by Ragnar for lululemon and I was asked to be one of the runners!! I was delighted and now I can mark it off my list of things to do in life and do some more because I am in love!
On my way to Exchange 6 for our big start!

Molly, is a drop dead gorge Mom who has two cute kiddos and works at lululemon Scottsdale

It was pretty hot and I wanted to get my Tan on! you couldn't cross the road with out a flag so you know I was all over that! My first leg was 4.9 miles Moderate and hotter than Haities!! 

Late night!!!

Right before we took off (pictures are out of order oops)

Me getting ready for my night run at 3am. My It band on my right knee was killing me on this second leg of 3.5 miles. It was a different running with a head lamp on but cool!

Heading out for my last run and after applying tiger balm, heat and rolling rolling rolling with the tiger stick... I ran like a gazell! My third and final leg was fast and smooth 3.3 miles for a total of 11.6 miles

After completing my last leg this guy was simply awesome so I had to take a pic with him!

South Mountain Sunday February 19th


Chris and I took our kids to hike South Mountain to hike last Sunday. It has been fun planning little out doorsy things to do with the kids lately. I mean, I have lived in Arizona my entire life and am just now starting to experience the beautiful hiking trails. I love it and the kids seem to enjoy themselves while we hike as well. I brought a pack for Nixin since I end up carrying her most the way. The kids did a great job, I was really slow in comparison to the boys who ran most the way... it was another perfect day in AZ!



Victory!!!!


Children's Museum in Phoenix

Anyone want to buy a Cote??


Friday February 17th I was able to go on a field trip with Brexton's School to the Phoenix Children's Museum. I let Cote  miss school and let Nixin come as well. The museum is amazing!!! The kids loved it and it was so nice to go somewhere that they could touch anything they wanted. The entire museum had recycled decor as well.

Love these kids!

Nixin is such a beautiful little lady!

After we had a lunch date at paradise Bakery, we went over to Sally's to pick new nail polish and saw the hair feathers or (leaves) as Nixin calls them.. So we put them in our hair


Cote lost another bottom k9 he made some good mula from the tooth fairy!


Sometimes these two get along....

Then she bites!

I love this picture because it looks like she is digging super speed fast!
As of recently, I stepped down as a supervisor at work to be home with the kids more. I realized that all the time I was spending on my job (which I love) was taking away way too much valuable time from my little babies and not making me a whole lot of money in the end. So... I made a choice to teach more and work at the store a few times a week. I have been able to be with the kids a lot more and I love every second of it! I feel so blessed to have things working out the way they are

Skirt Chaser 5k Saturday February 11th Tempe Az

The Skirt Chaser is a fun race, this was my first time running it. One of the funnest things about where I work is that they pay your entry for your races so you get out in the community! So... I was organizing the event with the other two stores in Az and we had a great turn out. The girls start the race and they hold the boys for 3 minutes and then they let them go to catch us.
My Friend April came along to run with my work team

And of course this stud came too! And killed it might I add not only catching me but passing me ):

Chest Bump!

This sis my time and it is pretty good for my grandma pace
