Snow Day

So, yesterday it snowed all day. We got at least 6 inches at our house and Alta racked up 34 inches. We heard Snowbird is opening on Friday. That's just crazy. While I'm not quite ready for the full blown winter, mostly due to the fact that I have 8 dog paws to wipe everytime the pups go outside, the snow really is pretty.

Better Times

Its snowing outside...hard. I'm making an effort NOT to stick my head in the oven and am trying to think of brighter, happier thoughts. For one, ski season will be here before we know it. Second, hmmm, okay maybe there is only one good thing to come of this.


Even though it was like a month ago, I just got some pictures from 24 Hours of Moab. Jen, a girl on our bike team came down with a photographer buddy and the two of them managed to take some pretty good pics.

Me about to go out for a lap, dont I look thrilled?

Our Team

Winter is Here

This is what I want to be doing today, lounging on the couch with a blanket. The weather has gone from nice to windy, rainy and cold all in a very short amount of time. Garrett and I got up at 5 this morning to take Mogs on a run. The weather was perfect. By the time I left the house for work, everything had changed. I think winter might be here and I don't think I like it.

Costume Contest Winner

While my tutu was extremely awesome, this little boy won the prize for cutest costume...hands down. Look at those cute little tusks, I didn't stand a chance.

WINNER

LOSER
Maybe next year.

Politics Smolitics

Can I just say that I am soooo glad the election is tomorrow. I'm sure people will still be talking about it, but good god, I hope they don't. We're Americans afterall and a week from now we'll be more interested in something else. (example: Michael Phelps who???) Anyway, this blog is not about politics and never will be. I just think people should get out and vote for the best candidate for them, whoever it is...that way, whoever it is, your voice will be heard and it will be over and we can move on with life. Garrett and I are voting for the candidates who care most about people like us and perhaps those less fortunate. So, do your duty, get out and VOTE!!

Halloween

Another Halloween has come and gone. We didn't really do too much, hung out at home and handed out candy. I wanted to dress up a little, so I made myself a tutu which I think turned out quite awesome. My goal for next year is to be prepared and really dress up. Dustin has said she will help me make a Poodle Skirt, a classic costume, not slutty in the least. And speaking of that, what's with the slutty costumes? It annoys the shit out of me, truly it does. Girls these days can turn anything slutty on Halloween....slutty bugs, slutty professionals, cheerleaders, slutty pirates, I could go on and on. I don't know, I just don't get it. Maybe someone can enlighten me. Anyway, here are some pics from our Halloween.

Injuries

Poor Munchie. Okay, poor me. Munch was not himself on Halloween so I was not fully able to enjoy watching him in his bat costume. He mostly layed on the couch. His foot procedure went well, but he was sorta out of it all night, hopped up on pain meds and such. The girls at the vet's office love little Munch and made a pumpkin for his cast. Adorable.
