So, wow. It's been almost two months since I last posted. I want to say that we have been busy, although I don't feel like that much has happened that I wouldn't have found the time to write for almost two months. Here are a few things that have been going on, I'll give you the Campbells Soup version :)

1: Air conditioner. Got it replaced. What should have taken only one day turned into three when we realized that the air-conditioning system wasn't designed properly for the type of house we have. So they had to run some new duct in the attic and stuff and move the water heater and furnace into the garage and the heat pump to a different spot (in one of my flower beds! Yeah, not so happy about that but oh well).

2: Ameilya turned 10 months old. I tried to get some pics of her. She wanted to hold the sign really bad and I was so afraid that she was going to fall off the couch while trying to do so that I didn't really get many pics of her like I usually do. I'll post a few later but they didn't really turn out all that great.

3: I have been running. A lot. I have been training for a half marathon (13.1 miles) which I am running on September 20, that's exactly two weeks from today. Yes, I'm freaking out just a little. I don't feel like I am as ready as I would like to be but my main goal is to finish it since this is my first one. I feel like I could probably run most of it but I'm not going to be hard on myself for walking a couple miles of it. I'll be sure to post pics and stuff and let you all know how it goes :)

4: We all got sick. That lasted for like two weeks. Tyler got it and shared with Ameilya. She got it worst of all, she had a fever and stuffy nose and just wasn't feeling good. Then I got it. I got it about as bad as Tyler did.

5: We just got back from a trip to Spokane/ Coeur d'Alene to visit our parents up there. We had a really nice time. We were able to fly since we had so many rewards points so it was really cheap for us to do that and then my dad let us borrow a car while we were there so that we could get around as we needed to while we were there. Thanks Dad! :-)

6: I have been couponing, getting a little extreme with it probably too. It's good though, I try to save us as much money as I possibly can so that what we do have goes as far as it can.

7: I have also been teaching lessons and playing in church here and there. I have three students right now. I  am playing for the Stake Baptism Day today.

8: Tyler started his semester of school this last week. He is in graduate school and studying mechanical engineering with an emphasis in HVAC. He is taking one class this semester, Advanced Topics in Project Management is what it is called I believe.

Other than that we have just been doing the same old, trying to keep the house up and taking care of sweet Ameilya. She has learned a lot the past little while, I'll devote a few posts to her and all the stuff she has been learning :) (PS can you believe that she is going to be a whole year old in just a little over a month?!?!?! How did time go so fast and why can't she stay little forever?! I can hardly believe that she has been with us for this long but at the same time it's hard to imagine life without her, she is so sweet and innocent and such a good little baby. It feels like she has always been a part of our family.)

Sorry for all the words and no pictures! I promise I will post pics later, I just have to go get ready to play at a baptism here pretty quick. More later though!
