** BEAUTIFUL day today. The twins got baptized this morning and were so stinkin' cute. It is days like these that make me realize how good life really is.

2 cute stories:

Friday night (just shy of midnight) Ry and I realized that all of Oliver's underwears are colored. Seeing he needed white ones for the baptism Ry took off to Walmart. In the morning we gave Oliver his new undies and explained to him why he needed white ones. He looked at us like we were insane!!! "What? That makes no sense," he says, "... everything doesn't have to be white!!" He got this genius look on his face, smiled and continued: "Look at me ... I'm not WHITE!!!!" :) :) :)

He is such a SMART boy!!! I am so lucky to be his mom!

Later (after the baptism before the confirmation): Livvy and I were out of the dressing rooms and in the chapel way before the boys! As we were sitting there I thought I'd take the opportunity to review what was going to happen next. I say, "Livvy, pay close attention to what your heart feels like when Dad confirms you." I continue, "You remember why he is going to give you a blessing, right?" She responds, "Of course, Mom. He is giving me the Priesthood!!!!!!" :) :) :) Dang, she is cute! Needless to say, we had a quick refresher course.

I LOVED today! :) :) :)

Oliver will only wear the knit boxer type of undies. They normally don't come in white!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

Now go out and get that precious young man some colored underwear, right now. I can't stand white skivies.......

From Teena Marie on Sun, Mar 06, 2011 at 19:12:55 from 67.2.100.67

No worries, Slick! The new undies came in a 7 pack ... only one pair was white!!! :) :) :)

Oliver has quite a few lines that are absolutely classic. :)

SSF ~ I am grinning ear to ear just picturing your day! :) :) :)

Laughing so hard with Oliver's and Livvy's stories! :D :D :D

Dang, how I hated missing such a special day and moments w/ you and your cute trouble makers!!!

Go Oliver!! I agree with Slick.

You went from sick to 60+ miles in one week? Yikes!

From Teena Marie on Tue, Mar 08, 2011 at 17:07:12 from 67.2.100.67

SSF~

We missed you, too. LOTS!!!! Glad we have a lifetime plus to make memories together! Many many many more occasions to come. :)

Okay, here are my justifications for my foolishness (wait ... I'm not sure it was foolish):

1. I was recovering from pneumonia, not a running muscle, per se, injury. I always kept my breathing very much under control. :)

2. The average pace for my weekly mileage was considerably lower than what it normally is.

3. After one full week of no running my legs were in zero pain (just a bit heavy is all).

4. The Ogden marathon is right around the corner. I need to build a solid base and I need to build it NOW!!! :) :) :)
