Some of you have been asking how my half marathon went...well, I didn't end up running it. We received news that my cousin passed away in a car accident on the way to Girl's Camp last week. We wanted to go to her funeral to honor her life and to support her family, so we left for Las Vegas last Friday and returned Sunday. It was a quick trip, but we were so glad that we went. My running partner's husband was able to take my place in the half marathon and ran with her, so it all turned out ok. But, I plan on signing up for a different half marathon. I may do the Mesa Falls half marathon or one in Pocatello. Another option is that my brother and his wife are training for a half marathon and we could meet up together in Utah somewhere (he is from Las Vegas also) and run one together. The only thing is they just started training so we would have to wait a few months until they are ready. I still haven't decided what to do, so I will keep you posted!
Nothing is too new here though. Devin is still studying hard and is excited for his 7 week break from school in August. I got a new calling... I am over all of the Relief Society activities (mostly Enrichment Activities). I am really excited, but I haven't ever done something like this before. Our ward has different groups like a craft group, book club, sewing group, cooking group, exercise group, etc. Me and my committee are over those and need to plan one Relief Society activity every month. I am really excited about it and look forward to getting to know the women in our ward better.
Mckenna is doing great. She actually did really well with the short trip and long car ride down to Las Vegas. She was so happy to be back home though. She is crawling all over the place now! I have had to rearrange some things in our house because she gets into everything! It is so much fun. She really loves other kids. We walked by a water park near our house the other day and she couldn't stop smiling and laughing as she was watching the kids play in the water. She is always so happy! (Yep, that is a ball of tin foil that she is playing with...one of her favorite toys! :D )

Isn't it funny how the best toys are the cheap things like old boxes, paper cups, etc? I feel like we haven't talked or seen each other in forever! Hopefully soon! So sorry about your cousin!
I'm sorry about your cousin, and that you missed your marathon! I have an idea. Why don't you do the Top of Utah half with me in August? It's mostly downhill, so it should be easy, but might not be so great on the knees. Think about it.
We are so sorry to hear about your cousin. I guess we will see you guys in a few weeks for the 4th.
