Meet Jonathan



I signed up for an online boot camp with my sister. So he's kinda like my personal trainer.


Here he is doing the hardest part (minus the push-ups, which I always stink at) of today's workout. Doesn't look too bad... trust me. It was bad.
 Bad... but awesome...


Max wanted to help me with my sit-ups.
Sweet of him, right?

For the first time ever (to my knowledge anyway) Max just kind of howled in his sleep. It wasn't a full-on howl, but it was noise from his mouth and it wasn't barking or whimpering.

I wasn't sure what it was at first but then I saw his mouth moving. I said his name - woke him up - and he stopped.

I've now heard him bark, whimper, and howl in his sleep.

Weird dog.

Good Day

Shoveled some snow this morning (I think this megastorm is finally over - after depositing many inches of snow since Thursday afternoon), went to practice the musical number I'm doing tomorrow (singing a solo - yikes), then headed down to Provo with the pups.

After taking Max to visit my brother and his roommates - they all love him, and I love that they love him - I took belle to visit with my grandmother and then went to have lunch at a friend's house.

It was great catching up with Sharla. Her little boy woke up from his nap while I was there and I just have to say - he is adorable! I had a blast playing with him and got him to throw back his head and laugh a few times. He's adorable! Did I say that already? (: I'd like to state for the record that I think it's completely unfair of my siblings to have their kids so far away from me (do you hear that, siblings?). While they've done a great job in terms of numbers (24 and 25 are coming soon!), proximity has a lot to be desired (none of them are in Utah anymore!). I'm just really glad that I have friends with cute kids that are willing to share their kids with me.

Anyway, it was a good day. I'm grateful for family and friends that are like family.

Happy Saturday!

In Theory...

... this is what I'm learning to do at my flying yoga classes.


this is amanda, one of the instructors, just 'messing around' after class.

It's in the very theoretical stages right now.

But I'm still having a blast.

This sign says 'Winter Storm 4 pm Today.' (Don't worry, I didn't actually look at my phone while I took this picture... While driving...)


I didn't know it was possible to schedule those. No one asked me, but turns out that works just fine for me.

I hope it's not too terrible though since I'll need to leave the house before 6 to get to flying yoga!

(just saw an email that said this storm is going to be pretty terrible... which makes me hope they're wrong. whoever 'they' are...)

Pretty

I've always loved the moon. Especially when it's with clouds. I can't remember when this was taken, but I like it. (:

Dentist

I have a dentist appointment this afternoon.

I haven't been to the dentist in... some years.

Let me just say that I'm prepping myself for 20 cavities, but secretly (or, not so secretly) hoping for much fewer...

Wish me luck!
