So I apologize for taking so long to update this blog! The holidays were insane between my 4 jobs. To review: Aribex (full time customer service), Personal Training, Kneaders, and my internship with Orriant. Orriant has been the most stressful trying to get my hours in and I always feel like my work isn't as efficient as I'd like it to be... but eh what can you do. 200 hours isn't that bad right? WRONG. It's been no where near as fun as I hoped.


Anyways THANKSGIVING! haha I Spent with Kevin and Kori. The food was FABULOUS! By far the best Thanksgiving dinner I've ever had and even the Turkey was delicious! (Thanks to the 25 lb bird Ty and I got the year before... it was still good) haha

I also ran my first 5 k that morning with some coworkers. Since I had been training for the 5k for our wellness program I ran with Mike Heyn (director of sales) and his daughter.Well at least I ran the first mile with them and they left me in the dust. haha but Still for how cold it was and how I'd never run outside before I did SUPER well! Way better than my expectation! I had been doing like 33-34 min on a treadmill and I did it in just under 32 min during the race! I was so proud and it actually made me want to do more races... weird I know. I'm not a runner. haha  
 


And then I had the day after Thanksgiving off from Aribex (although I did work at kneaders) I still got off a bit early! And it was a nice day! So I took my boys for a walk up Bridal Veil and it was beautiful! All in all even though I was away from the rest of my family I still had an awesome holiday!



Although admittedly... it was hard celebrating Thanksgiving for the first time in 4 years without Ty. 3 years ago on Thanksgiving he asked my dad if he could marry me. That did haunt me a bit but I think I did a fair job of pushing those thoughts out of my mind and being grateful for all of the wonderful things and people I have in my life now.

Fall Carbon County ATV ride

Fall Carbon County ATV Tour Let me start off this post by saying that not only did this tour far exceed my expectations, but the entire area did. If you hear Carbon County, most people immediately ask "what is there to even do there," "where is that?" Then you mention "Price" which is on all the road signs when you head from SLC to Moab and you get a few nods.  WELL, time to change that.

NYC posts- Brooklyn & Central Park

NYC Day 2: Brooklyn, Lower Manhattan, and Central Park Despite the late night Broadway show before, we were up early and determined to hit the rest of the list. So first up was Brooklyn. It took about 40 min to get to the Bagel Store on Bedford Ave between 2 subway lines and less than mile of walking. Rainbow bagel with funfetti smear: perfection.

 The past week we went to California for Ty's family reunion at Shaver Lake. We drove through the night Tuesday and mistakenly our gps took us a crappy route by Highway 6 and through Yosemite... so it was slow going and a tad scary! I saw two deer on the road on our way that Ty totally missed! Woah! I was super sad that we drove through Yosemite and I couldn't see anything so we determined to go on our way home from the trip! So Saturday we woke up superrr early to have time to make some stops! so here we go....  Not 30 min. driving in the park and we see a cub black bear climbing a tree barely off the road! I made Ty turn around to snap a picture because really.. how many times do you get to be so close to one of these cute little guys? If nothing else went well... going back this long way made the trip worth it to me! We started the main loop with Bridal Veil Falls which was much weaker than it normally is... but the water dumping over the edge of a very tall and ste...
