Destry and Liz

Girls Day

This Friday my Mom called and said that she and my sisters were going to go school shopping. I went with them and had a pretty fun time. I always like hanging out with my mom and sisters! We went to the mall, and found some pretty good deals! I honestly have not been shopping in a REALLY long time because I dont have the time with school. The end of the day was pretty crazy and we ate a lot of junk food, but it was fun to spend time with them.

Dead Dog

I came home and thought I had a dead dog the other day, but thats just how she sleeps apparently!

My Crazy Husband!!!

So this last week there has been a lot of thunder and lightning. We were getting ready for bed at about 10:30 on Wednesday night. I was laying in bed and I could hear Destry get in the shower. I was pretty tired that night, so I feel asleep. I woke up at about midnight and Destry was nowhere to be found! I could feel a breeze coming in the house as I got up to go and find out what he was doing. All of the lights are out in the house and Im wondering what in the heck is going on. I get to the back door and look out to find my husband sitting on the deck, in his garments, in the middle of a lighting storm! I told him to get his butt back in the house because he was going to get hit, and of course he told me that I worried too much. I told him if I ended up without a husband in the morning it wasnt my fault as he was laughing. I eventually quit worrying and went to bed. When I woke up in the morning, I get on my camera and this is what I found...what a crazy guy! I love him though!

Rock and Roll Half Marathon-August 8

I finally got the guts to run in a half marathon and I LOVED IT! It was so much fun and I got better than I had hoped for. We started our race in Old Butte Park by the airport (the soccer fields with the big ball) and went up and around some of the farm ground up there. I thought I would be tired, but I made it through pretty good. The only thing that started to hurt were my feet at about the 11th mile. I hoped to finish in 2 hours 10 minutes, but I ended up finishing in 2 hours 18 seconds. It was such a good experience to reach a goal that I had been working for. The best part of the race was having my best friend there to cheer me on. Destry followed me in the car and talked to me during the race. It was a good motivator to know that he would leave me and be parked up the road so I would see him in a few miles. I am so grateful for his support. He hasnt missed any of my races and I appreciate it so much. I always tell him that he doesnt have to go, but he always drags himself out of bed at 5:30 to be there with me. It makes such a big difference to have him there. I am thinking of doing the Mesa Falls Half, but it all depends on if Destry has to take his journeyman test that day.

Fishing at Camus Creek

Destry and I decided to load up the dogs and go fishing a few weeks ago. It was really fun and I actually caught some this time! We caught about 10 fish and they were all huge! :) In the end we started catching more trees and weeds than we did fish, but it was still fun! I am getting braver with my fish fear...i know its a weird phobia, I think I just dont like knowing they are in the water when I jump in to swim or touching them. Theyre gross! I touched all of my fish though, so I did pretty good. I always have fun when we decide to go somewhere outdoors! I had fun spending time with my little family in Kilgore!
