Project

We did this cute project with the Young Women in my ward last week. My friend Megan and I were able to take the paint and tools home and make some for our kiddies. They are really easy. You just need freezer paper, an exacto knife, cutting board, paint and an iron. You need to find a stencil of something you want on the t-shirt, cut it out of the freezer paper, and iron it on to your shirt, then you paint and the freezer paper will peel right off when the paint is dry. Here  is what i came up with.

 You know you love the sparkly purple unicorn!


 The VW bus is probably my favorite! i love the orange.

Fun in the Sun!

These pictures were taken back in January, when it got warmer. The kids were so happy to be outside.
I love that little hoody on him. His grandma Mimi gave it to him for his birthday! So cute!

Halle was loving life outside. She could go on the swings and go down the slide!

I think my kids are pretty cute, especially when they play nicely together


Saturday morning breakfast. Mmm, home made buttermilk syrup, fresh fruit and waffles, yum!
On a different note, Russ and i signed up for the Spudman triathlon. We won't find out if we are in until the end of this month, but we started training yesterday. we went for a swim and man did it kick our butts! I went running today and felt pretty good. I will get on our stationary bike tomorrow, and repeat that process once again this week. We are doing each type of workout twice a week.

It sounded pretty harsh to be working out 6 times a week, but it actually hasn't been to bad, since it isn't the same thing over and over. I am a little nervous about the olympic distance of the spudman and will probably do a sprint distance before, just so i can be more prepared.

Anyway, I am looking for any advice for what to wear. Swim suit, wet suit? bike and run stuff, and where i can get it for cheap? Thanks!
