It's a great Life!!

I know!!!.... UGH!

The Holidays have been BUSY...and then again more relaxing maybe more then it should be! I've had a very hard time keeping motivated to want to workout. I have the thoughts and excitements at the wrong time. For example, I'll get excited/motivated to do a workout the next day, and ready to get to it....'untill the time comes down to it...it's not so exciting anymore, and I talk myself out of things like this pretty easily, or other things easily getting in the way of it. Despite the bad weather, I didn't want to go to far at all lately.
Tri-fusion has been my only luck of doing a workout, a "FULL" workout that can give me what I need! So hopefully in the new year, I can keep up, and especially at the moment while the snow and crazy road weather has wore off, I can make the point and comfort to get to more workouts with other great and inspiring athletes!
Thanks to having Sheena, who I can have to join in and join me with any workout.
Thanks this last Thursday, I FINALLY made it to a BAT at the Thompsons and rode for a good hour and 45 min. and to Tiffany who pushed me a nudge to finish a workout that kicked my rear! Thank YOU! These are the things I need to not talk myself so easily out of things. :) And following that, I even made it to the HLR at the Gallaghers'. Had a good hard run with Sheena and then stuffed my face with yummy food. I was STARVING! Thanks to all that put the time, effort and encouragment to set up workouts. Hopefully I can get into the routine to return the favor! Goal right now is to get back into the motivation to get back into the routine of things! and hopefully lose a little more weight. :) If I can stick to a couple of workouts a week and build up from there... still learning how to balance a marriage, a job, the others things I love to do, and driving the distance. I'm still excited and passionate to have this area as a part of my life!

Hope to see all you Trifusions more frequently! LOVES

Thanks for a nice night out!

Another adventure to Wenatchee!

Back to being one of my favorite places to go is Wenatchee to visit Tyler's side of the family.... we use to go over and stay with Erin and Cody Stitt a lot, now that things have changed up a bit, we stay with Tyler's other brother Carson, friend Trish and their two adopted boys Avie and Collin. Carson had a good old friend visiting Dee, took us up on Steven's Pass to do some Snowshoeing.He did this hike in the summer time, up to a natural hot spring. He said it would take a couple of hours... well not predicting the difference between summer and winter...it took us 4 1/2 hours to get to the hot springs... it was just at the tip of sundown when we found the Hot Springs... Everyone got in, hesitantly except for me.... Best that someone didn't, to keep the dogs out,(or they would freeze!) and dress the ones that got in, as they got out in the dark, lucky we had a pinch of moonlight! :)

We headed down in the moonlight, and it was hard to see the path... kept twisting my ankles as I stepped. But it was beautiful, the moonlight hitting the snow and the huge mountains... it was a great scene and adventure! We all had a great time...can't wait to do it again!

Start of our hike

My new favorite picture of my two loves!

Deep path

These were crazy... you could "hear" the electricity come off of these things... I couldn't hear it for awhile 'untill we got up higher away from traffic noise. At night you could "see" the electricity sparkle off the wire.

Deeana and I

Good friends Dee and brother Carson

Leading the way Carson, Salem, Amber, Bella and Tyler ") Dogs were troopers!

The snow was so deep, Bella and Amber with their long hair collected snowballs on their bellies. We had to keep breaking them off. So funny and sad and the same time!

It was a great view

Tyler and Dee

We had to cross a couple of little streams

Carson and Dee loving the warm water...but were not excited to get out!

The rest of the weekend we played with the kids - Tanner Dee and Collin, playing at Erin's while "Uncles" put together the new beds Tyler made for his niece and nephew

Dee and Collin

Playing on the new beds... They LOVED THEM! Good job Tyler

Uncle Tyler and Tanner... loving his new bed!

Uncle Tyler and Brady... She loved her new bed! Thank you Uncle Tyler, you did a great job with the beds!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! YEAH BABY 2009!

HAPPY 2009!

Yeah for another New Year... and I couldn't have celebrated it better... well.... if I had a million dollars and took some amazing trip somewhere, that would be pretty cool... yeah! but really, it was a great night! I had some close friends over to hang out if they had nothing better to do.... and I had many that had something better to do... come hang out with ME!!! heehee

We started off with dinner.... throughout the night, went through 12 boxes of pizza!!! YUM! Played some games.... and then decided one by one to go play out in the snow... "what are we going to do?" .... we played ultimate frisbee to start off with... in 3 feet of snow.... :) oh it gets better..............................................

Crazy fun group... who love "light up " ultimate tackle!

Sheena thought I was going to throw snow in her face....

HEE HEE!

Rana catching some action......

Tyler getting a take down.........

Carl and Abby.... I think the frisbee was 20 feet away, but still decided to take her down! ;)

Rana Mahmood!!

Nikki Reed.. i think she fell down in this one.....

Ok... you ready for this? This is one of the teams to ANOTHER game we decided to play............... RED ROVER!!!

Let me just say..... YOU ARE NEVER TO OLD TO PLAY THESE GAMES!! They just get better!

Team #2 - You're going down!!!

Snow Crew! Only people who didn't come out were mainly the Pregos! We had two of them! :)

This was the Hot Tub after games, to warm up.... only problem is this is a 6 person Hot Tub! It over flowed... blew a circuit, which made the heater go off.... so it got cold pretty quick :( The only way to possibly fix it was for someone to go through the 3 feet of snow under the deck in their swimsuit and flip the breaker.... No one had the guts! But we enjoyed while it lasted....

Patrick and Nikki Reed

Nikki and Bethy

Footsy anyone

Sheena and Rana..... a couple of evil eyes!

or Creepy eyes?!

Bethy and I waiting for the countdown!

Marissa (and baby Wyatt)!!

Toby getting tired

Happy New Year!

It was so much fun... pretty much everyone stayed the night... we got up and had a great breakfast! Then we kicked them all out so we could get on the road to Wenatchee... (next Blog to come!) I'm on a roll! :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

After spending Christmas eve dinner at my mother in-law's house and playing games all night, Tyler and I went home and opened our presents to each other (where I got my wish for a sewing machine!!) Yeah for more projects! :) We ended the night in the Hot Tub... and then up early again Christmas day and back over to Cheryl's (Ty's mom) house to open Santa presents with the kids... then went over to my parents house for the day, and dinner.

This is my parents house out in the country, where I spent most of my life growing up. To the left of this house is a very OLD house (123 years) where I lived from 2- 6 years old.... then they built this house way across the yard and have lived there since! I'm going to be 28 here soon... if you want to do the math :) It's a wonderful place, and of all the times they thought of moving, I'm glad they have chose to stay....it will always be my home away from home!

While waiting for dinner and guest, Tyler and I headed out with our "child" (dog) Salem to go Snowshoeing around the property...

I can't tell you how much Salem LOVES playing period, especially in the snow... it was fun and hilarious watching her jump in 3+ feet of snow... she was pooped out during dinner!

My Hubby and I enjoying the day...

Ahhhh Family! (minus our sweet 3 legged cat tawsha)

The day after Christmas my sister in-law Erin and her two kids Tanner and Bradyn made it over from Wenatchee to spend time with us, so I had dinner at my house. We opened more presents, played out in the snow, played games, and sat in the Hot Tub. Nice quality time all around! :)

(Above is Tanner getting some gifts from Aunty Tina)

Nephew Avie loving his travel Guitar hero....

Sheena, Tanner and Erin playing some Rock Band... my 5 year old Nephew gets an 87% on Easy... which is pretty good I'd say!!

YEAH SNOW!!

I LOVE SNOW DAYS!!!!

MY FAVORITE SEASON IS WINTER...I LOVE THE SNOW! MY BOSS WAS OUT OF TOWN A LOT FOR DECEMBER, AND THE OTHER PEOPLE I WORK WITH COULDN'T EVEN GET OUT OF THEIR DRIVEWAYS.... SO MY WORK DAYS WERE AT HOME. :)

MOST OF MY WORK WAS TO SCRAPBOOK FOR MY BOSS'S MOTHER IN-LAW AND CATCH UP WITH HER ALBUM, WHICH I GOT A LOT DONE.... BUT OTHER THEN THAT TYLER AND I DID A LOT OF RELAXING, PLAYING GAMES, SITTING IN THE HOT TUB AND OF COURSE SHOVELING A TON!
