Update on us


Things are going good at the Walker household. Ian just started nursing school and Aliyah just started indoor soccer. We went to her first game Saturday. Although she likes to play she stood there like a statue for most of the game. We are starting to wonder if we should just put her in art classes since that is what she really is passionate about. But at the same time we would like her to try new things and be balanced in life.
Maddox is good. He is enjoying going to my friend Tiffany's house to be babysat while Ian is in school and I am at work. He even cried that other day because he wanted to stay there to play with her daughter Kinley and not come home! I think this is his first crush!
Things are going well at Target. I am not as busy but still seem to not find enough time in the day. I am considering taking the LSAT and going to law school. More on that if it happens. Other than that we are staying busy and running a lot.
I just got back from a spur of the moment trip with my brother Evan to Hawaii where he ran the HURT 100 which is a 100 mile footrace. That was an awesome birthday gift and unforgettable experience. This has really inspired me to take my recreational running to a whole new level. Not a 100 mile race anytime soon but eventually why not?? I have lots of pictures posted from the trip on facebook and myspace but if you have neither and would like to see some pics let me know.
Going forward there is a race in Cali in the middle of April we would like to do. It is a marathon and 50k but unfortunately we found out we can't do the 50 k because you have had have done one in the past 6 months or so to register for it. But even the marathon would be cool. It would be our first race of the year. The pics online look beautiful and it is a more challenging marathon. Also, my brother Evan, Alex, brother in law Dave, and of course Ian also would like to do it with me. That would make it even more worth it. I am so blessed to have a supportive and close family!

I did the 1/2 marathon in Anchorage. I can't say I have any desire to repeat that. So way to go you! Glad you're back to blogging :) And happy belated birthday!
