Park City Centry

Brady and his dad (Cody was sick) did a race in Park City. I was very excited because I got to shop why they rode. They both did a great job and said it was the best ride they have ever done. Great Job!

Provo Triathlon

We did our first triathlon today down in Provo. It was alot of fun, but some parts were definitely harder than others. I would have to say that we aren't the best swimmers in the world and the group start was not as fun as I had hoped for. Being in that much open water was a little worrisome as it was, then with the start having people on all four sides of you hitting and kicking you, made it a little scarier. After the a hundred yards or so when everyone spread out a little, my breathing calmed down and it was enjoyable the rest of the way. It was a half mile swim, 13 mile bike ride, and 3.2 mile run. The overall standings went me, Erin, Cody, then my dad finishing strong in the back of the pack. But Erin won the swim and my dad was 3rd all the way until the run when Cody caught and passed him. Overall I thought it was alot of fun going out and doing that. It was a fun day and we followed it up by going to Nephi for brunch and to celebrate an early fathers day.




The wetsuits and swim caps were definitely not flattering, but they worked nice.

Baby Abby Has arrived

This was as we were getting ready to leave the hopsital.

On June 1st at 6:50 in the morning we welcomed the newest member of our family. Abbigail Gray Mortensen. We were going to just name her abby but with much pushing from Madison we decided we would name her abbigail and call her abby. She weighed 7 lbs 1 ounce, and was 18 inches long. She has lots of hair which is unusual for our family. She is very healthy and the kids are so excited to have a new sister.

Madi's 3rd Birthday

Madi had her 3rd birthday about a week and a half ago. We ended up having a whole weekend of birthday parties for her. Friday she had one with her friends, Saturday she had one with Krissi's family and Sunday it was with my family. Krissi made a princess cake for her on saturday and sunday. Sundays was a smaller scale than the saturday one though. I was glad to have that weekend over, it was pretty exhausting.

Night time canyon trip

We decided to head up the mountian by our house with my family. We went to roast marshmallows and hotdogs. Everyone but Jodi and Cory came up. It was really fun, the kids love to be up the mountains.

Zoo

This year after the Salt Lake Bike Tour we decided to head to the zoo. It was a beautiful day and we wanted to soak up some sun. It was our first time to the zoo this year and the kids had lots of fun. They were excited to have baby Cohen along even though he slept for the first half hour or so. We all had fun for the first couple hours and then the early morning caught up with all of us. We finished up at the play area and then headed home.

Salt Lake Marathon

This weekend was the Salt lake Marathon and Brady, Cody, Erin, Ron and Tammy rode in the bike tour part. Everyone turned in an awesome ride. Brady and Cody finished in the top 35 out of over 1000 people. Ron came in shortly after they did and Erin had some bike trouble. After Erin and Tammy got the bike problem fixed they both finished shortly after that. Due to the pregnancy Hunter, Madi and I just got to watch.
