We are ALIVE!

Well thanks to Kimmie you all received an update from her on the last post.  I can truly appreciate a good hacker!  Life has been on fast forward the last year and a half.  It is incredible how fast time flies by.  Denton and I have been able to share a lot of wonderful memories together and have made wonderful friends along the way. 

There is too much to go over for the year 2011 so I will just skip to this year and hopefully I will not forget anything.

Denton has passed his 5 year mark with the Weber County Sheriff's Office this past April.  He absolutely loves his job and has such a great group of friends he works with.  It's definitely a brotherhood like no other! He is still an assistant squad leader for the Weber metro SWAT team and he is also currently working with Ogden's Gang Unit on a couple weekends of the month.  I am very honored to have a husband who, everyday protects and serves our community. 

He received 2 life saving awards in May 2012 for his heroic acts in 2011.

He also ran the Ogden Half Marathon for the 2nd time with a bunch of friends/co-workers. He finished in an 1 hour 54 minutes!

 I prefer to sit on the side and cheer him on! :)

Runners and family!

He will be running the Ragnar Race in June and will also participate in the Tough Mudder in a couple of months! 

As for me I changed jobs last January 2011.  I had worked as the Property Manager at Pinebrook Apartments for 3 1/2 years, then was moved to the corporate office and became a Regional Manger.  I currently oversee the function of 5 Apartment Communities.  The properties I oversee are in St. George, Layton, Ogden, Idaho Falls, and Billings MT.  It keeps me busier than I ever thought I would be, but I love it!  It has definitely come with it's challenges but I love all my co-workers.  They make my job better! 

In March 2012, Denton and I sporadically made a decision to go on a vacation with our dear friends Eric and Karlee (who live in Texas) to St. Martin in the Caribbean for a full week.  I did not want to come home.  It was so beautiful and relaxing! We literally were at the beach everyday laying out.

 This is at the island of Anguilla

 Beautiful Karlee! We went over to the island of Anguilla for the day.

 You can see Eric and Denton laying in the sand because the blast of sand is so forceful from the Jet that is taking off right now.  Idiots!

The runway is literally right next to the beach.  All that separates it is a 2 lane road.

Basking in the sun!

We can't wait to go back, it is my new favorite vacation spot!
