Am I Weak.... Or NOT?!

There have been many times in my life where I feel as though I am 'Weak' or 'Not worth it' even thinking things like 'Will I ever be proud of Myself?' I am so sick of the voices in my head trying to continually grill these negative thoughts into my head! I know that it is time to put a stop to it and just take a stand and be Proud of who I am! I guess a part of me wants to do the S.L.C Marathon to prove that 'I am worth it' and 'I can do what I set my mind to' and ' I am Beautiful' These phrases are easier to spell out then to say them out loud. I know that is something that must be changed! After all, I have so many things already...


I have a wonderful loving husband who loves me in spite of the things I feel. He is always there and says right thing at the right time and means it! I couldn't ask for anyone better. Then I have my faith. I know that if you put your whole heart and soul into doing whats right and following our father in heaven that everything will somehow turn out right. He is there to catch the tears that fall when something hurtful comes my way. He will always be there and I am so thankful for the gospel in my life!

I will keep going strong with my goal to do the S.L.C Marathon! This is an accomplishment that will not only prove "I CAN" but it will "Silence" the negative thoughts and phrases FOREVER!

But it's for Cancer..... we're still Crazy!!

Come April 16, 2011 Troy and I will be running a 1/2 Marathon! I know it sounds crazy but I believe that we can do it! It is a great goal to work towards and we want to prove to ourselves that we can accomplish something that is hard and takes so much work.... wait isn't that what people say about marriage?! ha ha Anyhow, we are really excited about this! The start time is 7am at the University of Utah and Finishes at the Gateway. Yeah it will be tough but we can do it! It's $45 a person and all the money goes to the Huntsman Cancer Foundation this year. Every year a new charity is picked as the cause of the marathon and this year its for cancer! So whomever would like to join this race for cancer, start training now to build up for this exciting event! Or check out the website www.saltlakecitymarathon.com!
