Halloween Season 2011

Happy Halloween Everyone!!

We have had a very fun Halloween Season. We have been to ghoulish dance performances with the Voodoo Darlings, celebrated the month with " An October Evening" downtown, had a 'frightful' Halloween party at my work and then last night a party at my mom's house! Here are some pictures of a few of the fun things we did:

Mom and Grandma Zona make the cutest witches ever!

I was Sacajawea and Phillip was Super Dog for mom's party.

Skinworks Halloween Party:

Each class decorated an area of the spa. My class did the Manicure and Pedicure rooms. Here is a glimpse of our spooky pedicure room. Don't upset the students or you just might lose a limb during your pedicure! AAAHHHH!

My Lovely Students, They really are the best!

Here are some of the Skinwork's Witches (Staff)

This Halloween was a blast! I can't wait to do it again next year!

Voldemort is Alive!!

I know this post is extremely late, but better late then never! Harry Potter was amazing! Of course the whole family dressed up. I reprised my role as Bellatrix Lestrange, while Jake took the amazing feet of being Voldemort! It took 4 hours of makeup application by my good friend Christel Edwards but it was well worth it. Make sure to check out the last picture. It is awesome!!

Here is the Masterpiece. Jake was the hit of the theatre! I can't wait to tell our kids how cool we used to be! :)

Ragnar Relay Pictures Finally

I know, I know, it's been a month since I ran the Ragnar Relay but I am just now getting to posting the pictures. I hope you enjoy them. This race was awesome and I would love to do it again next year. Let me know if you want to join me!




Thanks Tamara for inviting me to come run with you, I loved it!!

Ragnar or Bust!

Over the weekend my cousin Tamara and I had the awesome opportunity to run the Ragnar Relay Wasatch Back. If you don't know what that means it is a relay race that starts in Logan and ends in Park City, a total of 192 miles. Over the course of 2 days our team of 12 runners competed to win, or at least get a good time! Every runner has 3 legs they run throughout the course. Each team is separated into 2 vans and the racing beings!

This race was the hardest thing I have done to date but also one of the funnest! I made some great friends and had a great time. I personally ran over 18 miles, all with-in a 21hr window with hardly any sleep and little rest in between races.

I have more pictures to show of this amazing adventure but I had to share this one first. These are the lovely ladies of the first van, we were the first 6 runners. Our team was mostly from Pleasant Grove, so our team name was ' The Grove Trotters'.

These girls are all amazing runners! It took a lot to keep up with them but it was well worth it! I just heard that our team placed 56th in over 1050 teams competing. With the help from the boys in our second van we really rocked it out there! More pictures to come! :)

Pretty in Pink

Right before I left work on Friday my mom brought in my adorable niece Ava and I got to paint her nails for the first time. Of course she chose the pretty princess pink!

This picture is one main reason why I need a girl someday. I would love to pass on all my Beauty skills that I've learned.

Fill the Ark 5K 2011

Every year my community puts on the Fill the Ark 5K. The pro cedes go towards giving animals to small towns in 3rd world countries and then they can live off the animals by using them for farming. The race is always in June and I love doing it. This race really kicks off the summer for me!

Here I come!

Just running though the Finish Line. I did my personal best on a 5K, finishing in 27:53, average of an 8:58 mile. Considering all the hills in this run I feel pretty good!
Yay! I can't wait to finish all my races I have planned this year: Ragnar Relay next week and Bryce Canyon 1/2 Marathon in July! :-)
