Updates...

A lot has happened since my last post...

Jonathan and I got those long awaited, kick ass margaritas... and then some! We went on a 10-day vacation to Reno, NV and Tahoe, CA. We spent had a great time with some great friends, but I will say that I am glad to be home! Upon our return, two of our friends from PA have moved in with us. While I truly enjoy having house guests, as the matriarch of my house- it can be quite difficult being outnumbered 3-1... unless you count the dogs... which I don't.

Jonathan and I started the C25k program to begin training to run the Cherry Creek Sneak in May. So far, so good. It's nice having him to run with me as he pushes me way harder than I would push myself. We've also been riding our bikes a lot - I rode 20+ miles this weekend- since the weather has been so nice. Unfortunately, I haven't been going to Bikram lately as we haven't had the cash flow for me to buy classes. Hopefully next week I can alternate yoga and running... whatever it takes to clear my head would be great!

I am also struggling a lot this winter to muster up the motivation to snowboard since we just moved into our new house and don't a place in the mountains for the weekends. It is so tough to truly WANT to get up at 6am- drive an hour and a half for a few hours of riding- and abandon my high energy dogs all day. Especially since the good snow seems to happen mid-week! I think I may just be ready for Spring and Summer... especially since I got Jonathan a mountain bike and will hopefully acquire one myself soon! Yay for new activities!

Overall- life is great! We are still cooking a ton and enjoying our first year of marriage together. I'm still pretty sure that 2011 will be a great year for us!
