5K race

 

In May I completed my first 5K race in Frankfort. When I started it I was not sure how well I would do. With being in school over this last year exercise has not be on the front burner for me. So when the race started I put my music on and started walking. I looked up and I saw Jenny in front of me so I decided I better run. You all know that I am super competitive. So through out the rest of the race I walked and then ran when I felt like I could. I completed the race in about 53 min. My mom, sister, grandmother and Aunt. Everyone had fun but I can say that my competitive spirit won out on this one. I was the first one to cross the finish line. This week I will be doing my second 5K this one will also be in Frankfort. Here are some pictures from that day.

28 Bucket List

OK so today is my 28^th birthday. Last year I wrote about the things that I have been blessed with in my life. I have not been blogging as much as I would like to. Mostly because I have been so crazy busy with school. At this point I am about halfway to graduation. When I graduate I will have both my teaching certificate and my masters in teaching. Once I have both of those I will be trying to get a job either in Ohio or Kentucky in the elementary grades. When talking to a teacher at the school I am student teaching at she told me about her yearly bucket list of things that she would like to do before her next birthday. She had one thing for each year she was old. After hearing her talk it inspired me to do the same thing. So I will have a 28 bucket list for this year. I will be using my blog to track the completion of the list. The list will not need to be done in the order they are listed but they will only count onces I have put them up on the blog. I hope that I will have photos for each of these but I will most differently have a good story for each of them. So here is my 28 bucket list.

2013 Starts off with a Beep!

OK so our 2013 got off with a very loud beep. Late last night/ Early this morning our Carbon Monoxide detector started going off. It was very loud and scared to dog. After getting everyone up. Including my in-laws. They had us come over to their house. We cracked some window in our house and cut off the heat. Jon pack some clothes for him because poor him has to work almost 12 hours today. We loaded us and Itz in the car to go sleep at the other Aydt house. At this point it was about 2:30 in the morning. At this point Jon and Itz went to bed. Tom and I headed back to the house to meet with the gas company so that they could do a check of the house. They finally arrived around 3:30. The check showed that all the levels were in a normal range. This made me feel much better. We finally got back to Tom and Rosana's house around 4:15 ish. I don't think that I was a sleep before about 5:00. But it was sure nice to know that everything was safe at our house. This morning when I finally got up we went to buy a new Carbon detector better safe than sorry. Even though this was a false alarm I will never take this type of alarm lightly. Better to over react then not to react at all. I would like to thank my Husband for getting out of the house with me, my in-laws for helping out so early in the morning. Thanks also to the duke energy guy for making his way to our house and being so nice and helpful.
