Alright... This is the FIRST full day of no facebook for me! I have to say it's tough, haha or maybe I should say; sad to say it's tough! I appreciate anyone reading our updates, and looking at pictures via flickr. I KNOW how convenient facebook is but here is the reason or a watered down version of why I have faded it out...It's my addiction! It's always at my finger and I am constantly getting on it just to see "what's new" even if it's someone who I don't even really know but hey, we are facebook friends right! Well, it's a distraction between school, and just getting chores done since I stop every 15 minutes to check it. Also with some recent family issues I have been having I didn't want to deal with any drama, so there is another reason. I'm not sure how long I will last... or if I will, but I really need to kick the constant login. How in the WORLD do people go days without logging in? Haha << see addict!!

On the home front we have all been doing great. We have had some hurdles to get over, but thankfully my little family is very strong and we can take on anything! Right now it's back to just Graysen, Brandon and I. I am on break from school after doing pretty well in my first semester of nursing. We are trying to get a day care in order for Graysen, although we are on a waiting list for one and have been putting off finding a back up. I'm sure all will work out in the end!

Brandon and I just ran (or tried to run) a 5K called Color Me Rad. My nursing (some) gals wanted to do it as a group since it was right after our first nursing final. It was a lot of fun but the reason I say try to run is because we've never seen so many people WALK a 5k! We were all trying to jump/dodge/hurdle over people, which made it fairly annoying. It wasn't a timed run, more of a fun run to support the YMCA. The point is you where as much white as possible going into the run and they have "color" stations where they throw this colored corn starch (crap) at you, or in some stations they actually have pain they spray at you as you run through. Other then the one guy shoving the corn starch down my mouth, it was a lot of fun!

Here is Before

 After! So much fun!

 Very messy!

The guys!

We also had a great family weekend! The three of us had a little dinner and Nana Sushi to celebrate my first semester done, Brandon getting Instructor of the quarter and all the other good things that have come about our way these last few months! Then we also went out with our friends and had a nice Italian dinner along with some Ice cream. Overall it's been a wonderful weekend and time off, although it's going by extremely fast!

Last but NOT least, Graysen had a little photo shoot with Galia who did our family pictures last year. We really do like her she's very sweet. We do recommend her to anyone out here. This was a free shoot, she's wanting to start doing kids and is working up her portfolio, so that was fun to be apart of. The beach was FREEEZING, so considering the circumstances Graysen did great! Here is a preview:

Well, that wraps this blog up! I will try to update as much as possible!!!
