NEW CHORE BOARD
JUNE 1, 2019
JUNE 1, 2019
Mike bought and put together a new chore board for the kids with different things they could do to earn money. The nice thing about this board was the visible cash in each bag with the chore they needed to do to earn said cash. It’s always more tempting when you can actually see the money you could earn.
RIDING THE MOPED
JUNE 3-6, 2019

Everyone got a chance to ride the moped with Madeline this month. It seems like everyday Madeline asks to ride the moped with anyone that will take her. Since the weather has been so nice, we have all jumped at the chance to go with her.
GIRLS PLAYING GAMES WITH FRIENDS
JUNE 4, 2019
It’s fun to watch the girls play board games with their friends to pass the time during the summer. Usually they are outside jumping on the trampoline but every once in a while, they get hot and come inside to cool off. It’s nice to see them doing something that doesn’t involve a device!
PETER EATING KNEADERS
JUNE 10, 2019
Peter and I celebrated after our hard workout at Flying Horse by eating Kneaders French toast. I love it when my kids will work out with me. It’s even better to be able to reward them with something fun afterwards.
ELIZABETH HOTEL
JUNE 14, 2019
Mike and I stayed at the Elizabeth hotel the night before my XTERRA race. It was probably one of the coolest and most unique hotels we have ever stayed at. As a boutique hotel, it had lots of deluxe amenities such as an instrument lending library, an in-room record player, local artworks and an energetic live music venue near the bar. It was quite the place to be. I wish we could have stayed there longer.
FLOWERS ON OUR STREET

I love taking walks with Madeline during the summer. We always stop to look at all the flowers on our street and admire the ones we’ve planted in front of our house.
A NEW CHICKEN RECIPE
JUNE 16, 2019
Sometimes it is fun to try new recipes. I got this new chicken recipe to try and everyone seemed to like it.
CROSS COUNTRY TEAM HIKES THE INCLINE

Peter and I went with his cross-country team to go and climb the incline. Of course, Peter and Josh practically ran to the top. They finished in @ 27 minutes. I was pushing it to finish in the 32 min range. After we caught our breath up at the top, we ran down the Barr Trail. I kept up with the boys for a bit but soon enough they took off and left me in the dust. Those boys are such fast runners!
ORGANIZED OFFICE AND CLOSET
JUNE 23-29, 2019
I finally took the time to go through my closet and clean things up a bit. I got rid of some older clothes, organized all of my drawers, refolded all the extra sheets and blankets, and hung up all of my long necklaces.
SARA'S NEW WHITE PANTS
JUNE 25, 2019
I have been eyeing white jeans for quite some time and I finally found a pair that fit well. I can’t wait to wear these pants all summer long.
RUNNING TO BARR CAMP
JUNE 26, 2019
I ran up to Barr Camp with my running friend Emily. This was my first time actually making a solid run effort all the way up. With my XTERRA race under my belt and a week and a half of rest I felt good enough to try it. I was able to keep up with Emily most of the way up. The last mile or so I fell back a little bit, but I could still see her ahead of me. It was a tough run, but I am so glad that I did it. Hopefully next time I do it I will be a little bit stronger.

MADELINE'S HAPPENINGS
JUNE 3-27, 2019
 |  |
One of Madeline’s favorite things to do is watch movies on Abby’s karaoke machine. I decided to pull out one of my baby blankets and let her sit on it while she watched her movie. She loved the red apple blanket. It was so cute.
Madeline has also loved playing dress up. One day Peter actually helped her get dressed up in all sorts of fun costumes. She was a knight with a fancy black cape, then she was a ninja. She just loves to play pretend.
Madeline loves to pretend to feed her stuffed animals. She will sit them in her booster seat, buckle them up and pretend to feed them lunch. It is adorable.

EMMA'S NEW SHIRT
JUNE 28, 2019

As Emma gets older it is becoming apparent that she needs more grown up clothes. Since she is so petite sometimes it is hard to find clothes for her. We found her the cutest pink shirt from Aeropostale when we were looking for clothes for our upcoming family photos.
TEMPLE TRIP WITH PETER AND EMMA
JUNE 28, 2019
 |  |
Mike and I took Emma and Peter to the temple to do baptisms. Since Peter was trying to get all of his driving hours in we decided to let him drive us up to the temple. This baptism session was super fun because I got to see Peter baptize Emma. Then he baptized me. It was super fun to spend the afternoon with these two doing God’s work.
