May and June update







It is so crazy how fast time goes!! I got to thinking the other day how much has happened in the last two months. So sorry this might bore some of you but I thought it appropriate to give a little update on the Dunn family.
Lets start with May, on May 2nd I did my first ever half marathon which is 13.2 miles. I was super excited to do it and even got to spend the night in Fort Collins all by myself which was a blessing but yet a stress because I missed my little family. Now about the race. I had to wake up at 3:30am to be at the bus by 4 am to then stand and wait in the mountains for the race to start. Luckily I got on the right bus and they got lost so I did not have to wait to long in the 25 degree weather. I finished the race in an 1:55 my goal was 1:45 so I was only 10 min off which means Dan is still the title holder in our family. For me though that was the fastest I had run in my whole running experience the clocked me at and 8min 45 sec mile. All in all I was super tired but so glad I set a goal and finished it!! May came and went really fast for the Dunn's we spent lots of time hanging with friends and playing outside when the weather permitted.


As for June we started lots of projects. For instance working on our yard, planting a garden and Dan decided we need a shed so he has been putting that together on nights when it is not raining. I have been helping him as much as possible but this year my allergies have kicked my butt and of course Jace is more curious than ever and wants to be mom and dads big helper.


To end June we helped Dan's parents move to there official retirement spot in Nephi Utah, played in Colorado at a Motor cross event , and on Dans birthday our yard got flocked with pink flamingos!!!(shhhh I know who did it but I will never tell).


So I wanted to save the best news for last.......We found out we are expecting a new addition to our family on Dec 31st!!!! Currently I am 15 weeks and things are going good. I am tired as ever but food loves me and I love food so life is good. We will find out what we are having in August so be on the look out for those results soon.
We have been so blessed and I know I say that a lot but I find myself pondering all that I have and feel so grateful to have so much love around me.
