life brings many changes.

Life has many changes that one does not see coming. some come are anticipated but still not realized some come completely from the left field. we stay positive because that is the only truth that we know. With summer starting a graduation somewhat behind us life feels unknown. It has not hit me yet that there is a break and a new life beginning. I have my health and my loved ones and I am grateful for that. Now I have time to go bike to work and enjoy those rides. The farmers market will be my summer high and the new kitchen aid mixer was an unexpected wonderful gift. I stay positive cause that is the only thing that makes hard situations bearable. i try to hang my head high not low. Think about the great possibilities that lie ahead.

Heading to my first wors race of the year was exciting. I forgot what i packed in prep for the boy to hurt himself, stay hydrated etc. After all Amanda and I are professional nutrition givers aka water girls.

With all sorts of family recently in i had a fix of the good ol laughter and love. They headed back to Seattle, park falls, Minneapolis but the time was much needed.

As always i have my biggest fan and supporter mark by my side. i can not even begin to put my gratitude to that man into words. it simply cannot be. when i fall he falls and holds me.
