I am a slacker!

Well I am going to try to start posting on this again at least once a week!  I am going to set a reminder to do so!

We are heading to Georgia for our first camping trip of the fall this weekend!  I am super excited about it!  I am taking my new bike with me, I hope to re-learn how to ride it!  Pictures to come of the weekend sometime next week!

Soon to be an AUNT!!!

Yesterday we had Adriane's (my sister) baby shower!  We had such an awesome time!!  We have been blessed with the best friends and family ever!  Adriane got tons of awesome stuff...well actually McCoy did but Adriane was really grateful! 

So McCoy, your room is set up, you have tons of clothes, bottles, diapers, etc, so now we just wait for your arrival!!!!!  McCoy Crawford Bevis hurry up and join us, there is soooooo much love awaiting you! 

A special thanks to Sonya, Kathryn, Vanessa, and Janet for all of your love that you showed Adriane yesterday! Thanks for putting on such a great party for such an exciting event in all our lives!!!

Happy Anniversary to US!

On August 8, 2011, Jonathan and I celebrated our 8yr wedding anniversary!  Wow has really been 8yrs already?!  This past weekend we got to go out of town to celebrate...Thanks to Adriane for keeping Charlee and mom and dad for keeping Jud and Kenlee!  We decided to go to Brevard, NC to see a few waterfalls!  We actually had 5 falls on our list to visit but the weather didn't cooperate, but we had a great time anyways at the 2 falls we did get to see!  We ended up at Hooker Falls first, it was very pretty and had an awesome swimming hole at the bottom of it!  We plan to take the kids back there soon to swim, they would love it and it was an easy easy hike so they would have no problems walking it on their own! 

Next we went to Triple Falls, the trail for it is right across the road from the trail for Hooker Falls!  This was the most beautiful waterfall I have ever been too!  It is actually (as you probably guessed) 3 waterfalls in a row!  Amazing! The pictures I saw online did not do these falls justice at all!!!!!  It was huge!  I also can't wait to take the kids there...gonna make for some really good family pictures!!!  All in all we had a great weekend and I am so grateful that I get to call Jonathan my husband!

Also we took a quick trip to Anderson this weekend so that I could get the tattoo that I have been wanting!!!!  I chickened out in March, but actually got it done this weekend!  and to my surprise it didn't hurt...a little uncomfortable in a few places but not bad!  Thanks Todd for my tattoo...I LOVE IT!!!

On the Run!

This weekend Jonathan and I both ran a 5K!  Jonathan did the Red, White, and Blue shoes and I did the Firecracker Frolic....we both did ok, Jonathan was not happy with his time and I was 5 seconds short of beating my personal best!  But we both finished our races and had a good time! 
Side note: I wish Jonathan would start taking a camera with him to his races!!!  Oh Well!

 Me and Tommy Bailey...this is our second 5K together (the 1st his wife also did with us!)  He was nice enough to pick me up the morning of the run so that i didn't have to drive!!!  Thanks Tommy!!!

J&K

Well there probably won't be much info here but I thought we at least deserved some recognition!

This summer Jonathan and I are playing on a 6v6 soccer team together...its a lot of fun (even though we are getting old and the next day we hurt) and I LOVE having something we get to do together without the kids!!  Thanks to my mom for watching them for us while we are at the fields!!!

Jonathan is also training for tri's (bike, swim, run)  he is having a great time and just completed his first tri!   He is also running 5k's and is working towards a marathon (I think he will run his marathon in Oct.!)
Jonathan is also getting his chance at being Mr. Mom this summer!  Charlee is home and we also took Kenlee out of daycare since she will be starting K5 in the fall!!  He has been running the girls back and forth to dance, taking them to movies, lunch dates!  It has been great for all 3 of them!!


I am trying to get back into shape and lose some weight so I have been training for 5k's!  At first it hurt and I hated every minute of it, but i kept pushing myself (and Jonathan pushed as well) and I am now feeling much better as I run!  I ran my first 5K (since high school) a couple of weekends ago...I have run/walked several but i actually ran the whole 3.1 miles a few weekends ago!!  My next race is on July 4...its at 7:30am so I hope i am awake enough to run decently!
