Another Sunday Adventure!!

This Sunday we went to a place called Hocking Hills. It was amazing! The pictures don't even do it justice. We decided it was Lake Powell canyons mixed with Honduras. The rocks were dark and covered in green moss. The more I think about it, it was a lot like the hikes we went on in Hawaii. Yup, it was just like that! With the ferns, the moss, the humidity, waterfalls, and everything. Check out the pics!

This is us being retarded...

Here is Morgen always trying to stick his nose in pictures!!


The waterfall at the Dead Man's Cave hike... I guess I never really thought about it being a
dead man's cave... kinda gross!

A pretty bridge that we crossed... and Devin taking in the scenery.

Here we are about to take the freezing and dangerous plunge into the water!! WOO WOO!

More pictures of the hike...


There is one little spot in the water that is only about 6 feet deep so when we jumped we had to crumple up our bodies. I touched my bum on the ground when I went! Kinda crazy!


I think that this picture makes us look like we are on a date and don't want to touch each other! Kelli would not approve!!

We had to walk through a cave thing here.

This is how it rains in Ohio!





The rain here is much different than the rain in Utah! Here it comes out of no where and drops like crazy! And the drops are huge! It was a sunny day and we spent a few hours at the pool and when we got home the wind picked up, dirt was flying everywhere, and then the sky got dark and it dumped!! When I looked out the window it was as if I was in a car wash and could barely see out of them! Within a half hour the rain stopped and it was beautiful again! Pretty fun weather!!


I ran a 5k!

Last Saturday one of the other wives, Jessi Quillen, and I ran the Powell Spring 5k. It was such a cute small town race! There were less people there than there are at the Riverdale one that we always run. The race started in a park, went through a very pretty neighborhood, and ended back at the park. I finished 67th out of 123 people with the time of 28.19. Not too shabby right?
That is a 9 minute mile. It was hard, but way fun!! :)

This is a before picture taken by Morgen in our apartment.

There was a guy at the race that took a bunch of pictures and posted them online, that is how I got all the action shots. I'm in lime green and Jessi is in red.

This picture was taken at the finish line. At the last curve I asked if the girl next to me wanted to race. It was pretty fun! I thought I would win since I am so much taller than her, but this picture captured my shame. Short girl beat me. All of the people at the end of the race knew we were racing and I could hear them talking about it as we passed them. It was a fun way to finish the race!

And we are done!! Phew!!! And Pooped!! :)

The Best Come-Back Ever!!

I have to share this conversation that Morgen and I had the other morning....

K: "Morgen, you take forever to do everything!"
M: "Hu?"
K: "You take forever to put your socks on. You take forever to tuck your shirt in. You take forever to do everything!"
M: "Well I can do multiplication faster than you."

Bah ha ha! That is the funniest come-back that I have ever heard! He totally wins!!
