Long Time Coming

Well it has been awhile and with a huge pile of papers calling to me (to grade), I decided to take a minute to blog. Here is a quick update.

Saturday 3.12.2011
We ran our first 5k!! We started running in January and this was our big goal! It was nice to be running for such a good cause. We ran the Rex Lee run at BYU which sponspors Cancer research. Now that we ran our first 5k Ben is ready for a 5k mud race being advertized in June. Sounds fun... We'll see!
I was really excited for this because I called it my first "pi" day run. Close to 3.14 miles on 3.14.. Yea yea pi day was on Monday but I have always wanted to participate in the "pi day runs" the byu math dept put on when I was a student. So I had to stretch this a little. I guess what I am really excited for is 3.14.15. #1 it is on a saturday so I am sure there will be a 5k that day, and # it is the ultimate pi day 3.1415, 15 being the next two digits of pi. Here we are after the race!!

Here is our ultimate Brazilian dinner from Ben's mission. beans topped with rice, salad or lettuce, and spaghetti. Not colorful like I would have hoped for pic taking purposed but it was really good!

Happy Belated Pi Day everyone! My first pi day as a math teacher was awesome. I made cookie bars with pi symbols frosted on the top for each class, to go along with pi day trivia ofcourse. They were delish. Next year I may just invest in this "pi" cookie cutter... $13 though.. hah. Don't think I am a total nerd for posting this ofcourse.




P.S. BACHELOR FANS!! Were you so happy about Emily and Brad? talk about surprized! I heard the spoilers were saying that Chantal was supposed to win, and Em and Brad had a rough last date I thought. Well hey they seem like a cute couple that are keeping it together. The drama of the couple breaking up on that same night is always to much for me. They are too cute, so I'm hoping the best for them!
