Training for a Marathon and Summer Happenings...

An update on our life....

Neil and I have been having a great summer!! But the hot weather in Spokane has definitely made us ready for fall to come and school to start! We turned in our graduation applications yesterday and we cant believe that we are almost done! We will be graduating March of 2010 with our Bachelor degrees. Only 2 quarters left of school...

We found a great bible study group at our church and have established some great friendships over the summer. Two days ago we went rock climbing with the group and I made it all the way to the top! Yay!! Neil of course made it to the top in lickety split! lol It is a blessing to be able to have christian friends over here!

Another exciting adventure we have been training for is the Portland Marathon. We are 10 weeks into our training schedule and have 8 weeks left. It has been grueling but it has been fun to do this together! We are getting in shape while hanging out together! The Portland Marathon is on October 4th and we are counting down the days!! Be praying we can make it through the training. Last week's 15 mile day was very tough.

I don't have any new pictures to share...we are kinda bad at remembering to take pictures! lol But I will try and remember to bring our camera for a camping trip we are planning for in two weeks.

It seems like everyone is doing good! It is so great to see pictures of Sigrid on here! She is so cute and I cannot wait to meet her! So keep sharing....since that's all I have of her right now. Corey thanks for sharing those pictures of Haley on her first day of school! I cannot believe how much she has grown since I last saw her a year and a half ago!
Love you all,
Jen :)

  2. Yes we are planning on moving back to the west side, and we are very excited.The weather over in Spokane just isnt the same plus it is hard to be away from family. We have been looking at apartments in the Woodinville/Bothell area!
