The Dirty Dash '13

We had our first go at The Dirty Dash this year! We decided to go ahead and do the 10K since we're all pretty much bad asses. Maia, you were SO excited you were squealing from the moment you woke up.

Here are some of our "before" shots...before Maia decided she wasn't very good at Dirty Dashin' 

Here we are once we were back at our car. We were WAY dirtier than this but there was no way I could pull out the camera while we were in the mud pits :)

Looks like we picked this little Mowgli up on the side of the highway:

At the end of the day it was fun, exhausting and MESSY.  We'll definitely be going again next year but this time that little mousey girl is staying home :)

Oh and BTW have you ever seen mom's nails look better than this? ;)

Afternoon @ Liberty Park

We have finally finished up most of our house upgrades and can have our weekends back!  Yesterday afternoon we went to Liberty Park, fed the ducks and then walked over to have some fun in the water...

Nothing entertains kids more than WATER

It was National Donut Day too and I didn't even get a shot of our yummy donuts...we gobbled them up too fast!

First Hike of 2013

Yesterday we hiked Waterfall Canyon in Ogden...it was beautiful! 

Made it to the top!

Grandma Allen's Bday - catch up

Grandma Allen's birthday was April 13th and celebrated all weekend long...here's just a bit of the fun that was had :)

We started with a "Tour Around the World" meal from Noodles and Co.

Maia could not wait for Grandma's actual birthday to give her her presents, so she got them a day early.

More dinner and handmade gifts from Maia :)

Handmade soap from Maia...

Of course she also has to open other people's gifts for them...

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Zoo Day - catch up

On April 21st we had a Martin Family Zoo Day! 

Here we are excited to go :)

All the animals were out for us to see...

The weather was perfect and we had so much fun!
