Round 2

Marathon Round 2... I have been thinking about giving the Saint George marathon another shot for a few months now finally the last day I was able to register I decided...why not. The Saint George Marathon has so many runner's register that they have to cap the race at 7,400 runners. All the runner's chosen are selected on a lottery basis. Monday May 9th the results were posted online as to who was chosen. I went to search for my name not once but multiple times and everytime and it said "sorry you have not been selected." I was a little bummed but overall fine with the results. Yes I did want to run but I felt kind of relieved. I gave up on the idea and just decided to chose other races to run. However, Wednesday morning I was checking my email and I recieved an email from the marathon staff stating "congratulations runner you have been chosen as a particpant in the 2011 marathon." At this point I was a little confused. Was I in or was I not in. I didnt know! I decided to contact the marathon staff and ask them. They then informed me that I was in! I guess when I registered I put my first inital that is why I was unable to find my name online. Funny thing is I went to search for my name again and I still never found it. HA HA. Oh well! Im in! I couldn't be more nervous, overwhelmed or excited. I cant wait to do this again, and hopefully do it better! I have a goal in mind and I am going to try my hardest to reach it. Plus I need to find my love for running again and this will be the exact race to do that for me! My Saint George Marathon race round 2 is going down Oct 1st 2011. Let the training begin!

Vegas...was graced with my presence!

Celine was back!! And... I wasn't going to miss it for the world!

(my cute guess sunglasses)

Saturday day April 9th (umm, yeah way behind) was the day of the concert. That morning me, jodi, rachel, jordyn, and bonnie made our way down to vegas. We left the snow and hit sunshine in vegas! Wow, that drive was a trek though all sorts of weather!! Plus, craziest thing ever we passed the sister wives van on our way down there. Ha ha!! Anyway, we made it to vegas that afternoon and the first thing we did was hit up some premiere outlet shopping! We had a blast! I even found myself an adorable pair of guess sunglasses that I just had to have, they were just a small fortune but Im in love. Now my second purchase was probably one of the stupidest things I have ever done!! Me and rachel got sucked "somehow" into buying this silk wrap that apparently you can tie into about 10+ different dresses. Cool, right? Yeah, well I thought it was. It was a benefit that I was the model and I got to see how all of the styles looked and I will admit I kinda like it. However, I told myself  I wasnt going to buy it but like I said "somehow" I walked away with it. Stupid, I know, I still regret it!! Ha Ha funny thing is Me and Rach got home and tried for about 2hrs to figure out how to tie it and we couldnt do it. So, basically I have an over priced piece of silk in my closet! Ugh, we just have to laugh about it now! Anyway, after our shopping adventure we made our way back to the hotel to doll ourselves up for the night. And, that's exactly what we did. We looked hot! Then, It was off to see Celine!! Oh my gosh...she was unbelievable!! I cant even begin to describe her concert. It was amazing! She sang many of her top hits including, my heart will go on. Which was her final song and it was out of this world! Her outfits and backgrounds were gorgeous and fit every song perfectly! She even did various tributes to many artists, she sang a journey song, and duet with "stevie wonder" and my personal favorite was her tribute to michael jackson! She sounded just like him! It was epic and I loved every second! Ah, I would do it again...like umm right now! So, it was worth every single cent!

Well, after the most amazing concert ever we decided to eat at serendipity. Second best thing of

the night! Best frozen hot chocolate ever!! Plus, It's serendipity who would'nt be in love... ha ha haven't you seen the movie? I personally loved it!! Probably because that is my most favorite movie of all time and I just had to eat there, no questions asked!! Then we of course walked the strip, had a dance party in front of the bellagio and took our night in vegas for everything it was worth! It was a great little getaway and we had a blast! Even though we spent more time driving to vegas, then actually in vegas, we had a great time!! Our second trip is in the planning stages!
