Hurrican Half Marathon

My sister Michele took pictures of this race because my girls were in paraowan.



This past Saturday I went to Hurricane and ran their half marathon. It was great! I finished in 2 hours 2 minutes. My neighbor and I were trying to beat the 2 hour mark, but just barely missed it. It didn't help that the course was .15 of a mile too long. Either way I was able to set a personal record, so I shouldn't complain. The girls and Carolyn were at Parowan at a dance competition, so there are no pictures. Michelle and her boys were there and they took pictures and i will post them when I get them. Mendy also ran the half and she also set a personal record of 2 hour 47 minutes. what a fun run. There was a killer hill at mile marker 5 to 6, but we survived. pictures to come later.

primary activity day

Sat the weekend before last the Girls went with their Mom and the Primary achievement girls to the St. George Temple. They had a great time. Sister Fielding had lined up the activity and they had someone come and tell them all about the temple. Then they took pictures and watched a movie in the visitors center.
Here are the girls with McKenna's friend Melissa on the steps

Here are my girls.

Dance Competition: Parowan

We spent Friday and Saturday in Parowan for the girls dance competition. Mckenna danced her solo on Friday night and then she danced with her team on saturday and performed three dances. Ellyce also danced on Saturday with her team and performed two dances. Ellyce's team won superior ratings on both dances and McKenna's group also recieved superior ratings for her three dances. They ended the day by having the dance company win overall best dance company there. the girls were thrilled.
This is McKenna's Lyrical dance.
Here McKenna is performing her Solo routine.


She won third runner up with her solo. Not bad for it being her first competition.

SUU Safety Fair

The Girls were asked to perform at the Southern Utah University Safety Fair. Mckenna was asked to perform her solo routine and she was a little stressed because she hadn't practiced it in a while. She did well, and so did Ellyce.
