Setting Down into the "New Normal"

So, I am not going to bore everyone with lots and lots of words.  I just want to give some highlights of the last few months.  I have been very very busy with graduation and trying to get my life back in order since I finished school...


Graduation - It has been the highlight of my life thus far (next to marrying Matt).  I am so glad to have my undergrad completed because I can now move onto bigger and better things.  Masters??  Maybe, but give me a bit of time to have some fun first.  :-)

The family came out to see me, and we had such an amazing time in and around Phoenix.  Here is one pic at Goldfield Ghost Town...one of Melissa, Tyler and my favorites.

I love my family with all my heart, and I am so SO glad that they were here to celebrate this very special milestone in my life.  It meant the world to me.

Running - I am back at it!!  My foot feels great and I am putting an average of 18 miles on my feet a week.  Usually longer runs because I enjoy them much more than the smaller runs.  I have a half in September and a half in October thus far.  I am still looking for that special marathon that I want to run, but haven't really found one that I want to give my heart and soul to training yet.  Disney was very special to me.  Maybe I will wait for 2015 to run it.  I guess we will see.  Right now, I just love getting out there and seeing what my body will let me do.

Stand Up Paddle Boarding (SUP'ing) - Yep, I have taken on a new passion...and have dragged Matt with me. :-)  We have met a really great group out here in AZ that we have been meeting up with on the water, and having a ball!  I have finally found something that gets me back to my love of the water out here in AZ...and it is one hell of a workout!

Much much more to come soon!  I have started cooking us to a healthy lifestyle, of which I would love to share recipes, and things are just getting started for the summer.  Hope you will stay with me...
