Our Winter turned Spring

We had a very busy Winter and Spring.  First, we ran several races.  We started with the St. George Half Marathon and also ran the Dam2Dam 10-miler in St. George.  Fun races.  


 We love St. George in the winter.

We then headed to Catalina Island in March for the Catalina Island Marathon.  This is such a beautiful island, and although I have stared at it from the beaches of Newport, I had never set foot there.  It was a really fun weekend.  The marathon was the most difficult 26.2 I've ever run.  The elevation changes made for wicked hills, both up and down.  We finished in 5 hours, and were definitely in the middle of the pack.  We had beautiful weather and enjoyed every minute of the trip!



I threw a celebration party for Gavin as he broke his 10-year streak of NO CAFFEINE.  Seriously, he did it.  We ordered the limited edition Dublin Dr. Pepper in glass bottles (as well as about 60 more sodas in glass bottles made of only cane sugar) to be his first sip.  It did not disappoint.


In April, we went to Denver for a fun weekend away.  Gavin had southwest miles he was going to lose, so we took a quick getaway.  Denver is a great city.  We loved visiting.


Little Man Ice Cream - unreal!!
