rambling

So what's new?? This week we are back in CA & Jess is in town with us for about two weeks. We've been doing a lot of hiking, reading and eating lots of good food. I have like 10 books I want to read right now but I'm trying to read one at a time.. and I'm getting impatient. I want to read all of them right now. I'm going to plant a herb garden soon and a terrarium. Recently I was running farther than my body could handle & now I think I have stress fractures in my shins. It sucks. They literally hurt all the time. I'm not going to run until August :( I'm hoping to run a half marathon in September though and a full marathon before January. I just need my shins to get better first. Nikole and Stephen are coming to spend the week with us on Sunday :) It'll be so fun to have everyone in town. I'm so excited! Half Christmas is Monday, and we're celebrating. I'm going to make snow, sand angels and hot vanillas. Christmas sweaters will be involved. Zack and I's one year anniversary is in JULY!! I can't believe how fast it's coming :)It's been one heck of a year, I'll tell you that. I can't wait to see what our second year of marriage has in store for us. I love Zack SO much! I don't think anyone else could have been more perfect for me. I'm so lucky to be his wife. On a very sad yet thankful note, the other love of my life, my nephew Colton almost died this week. Our family has been able to witness the power of prayer, and lot's of it. He had a really bad accident earlier this week and the fact that he's still alive is truly a miracle. I'm so happy that Heavenly Father is giving us more time with that sweet angel. I can't imagine what I would do without him. Well, thats enough rambling for tonight. Have a great weekend! xo
