Sheboygan Halfie





On my 25th birthday I ran the Sheboygan Full Moon Half Marathon with my friend Jamie from SVU (we were roomies on our Mexico study abroad trip) who flew out from Baltimore for the weekend. It was a little over 2 hours to get there, but we got to visit an art museum's bathroom's before the race :) (planned, yes, weird, I know, but cool, so check it out here). I ran 13.1 miles in 2 hours 30 mins which is exactly what I wanted/expected, so yay! It was an evening run, started at 6:30 pm and got dark around mile 10. The weather was super icky muggy, the mosquitos horrendous, and it sprinkled a little, but it was SO MUCH FUN! :) WE'RE ROCKSTARS! :) Thanks for coming out to visit, Jamie!

Girls Camp



I'm back from Girls Camp! Camp went so smoothly this year- it was so wonderful. The YCLs really stepped up to the plate when handed so much responsibility and us stake adult leaders got to just sit back and let them tell us where to be when. The facilities were great, the weather was beautiful clear 80's, no injuries (other than my ketchup and sharpie marker self-inflicted wounds as part of a first aid challenge), and an awesome set of 4th year girls. What a great gig I have! Thank you to all the beautiful and amazing girls who made my week such a spiritual joy :)
