Biking With the Girls

We went up Provo Canyon today.

It was BREATH TAKING!

We had never been up here before, but we decided to try something new. The colors were amazing. The pictures do not do it justice.

I am really lucky. I love to bike. I have 5 or 6 girlfriends in my neighborhood who bike also. You know that my dad bikes, too. It's fun to be out together.

We had a guy take our picture right by bridal veil falls and I asked him about the trail. He said it was about 3 more miles, and then he told us about a steep road that was a little residential road, but just beautiful and worth the ride.

Of course, we had to do it.

It was about a 4 mile climb. Hard, hard, hard. But so worth it!

Got me to thinking about life. About eating right. About exercising. It's hard. SOOO hard sometimes. But, SOOOO worth it! I don't think I'll ever say, "Man that eating right thing was too hard. I don't think I'll do that again." Or, "Man exercising is not worth it." It is so worth it. Eating right is worth every bite I DON'T take!" :o)

Introducing.......

Caroline Joleen Bell

Congratulations to my brother, Matt and his wife Raquel.


Isn't she just adorable???????

The kids are all in heaven having a new baby around.



Especially this one. Makenna loves Caroline. In fact, the other day she asked Brett, "Dad, will you dare me to do a snow angel in my swim suit and the reward could be to go visit Caroline?" Isn't that hilarious?

*sigh*

We love her.

Makenna said, "It looks like a giant squid!!!!!"
