Sorry for the delayed update. If you want my excuse or more words, you can find both at the other blog I've been writing all semester which has absolutely consumed my time. Therefore, here is an update.
I did a tri! It was puny becuase they cut the biking WAY short becuase the roads were apparently wet, but the 5k course was perfectly dry, so that was rough. Either way, I won my age group and maybe the whole thing? I don't know. But it was fun! and FREEZING!

Kim's grandparents live in St. George so that is where we stayed and they took such good care of us! It was so fun to be with some of the dearest girls in the world doing something crazy!
There weren't very many people in the race but that's probably becuase they were all in the casinos!
The race ran from the corner of Arizona to just beyond the border in Nevada so I got two more states! That puts me up at 12, now, so I'm about 1/8 of the way done. Woot.
The girls ran GREAT! I was so proud of and impressed with them all, and Elise even ran her first 5k!! It was a very triumphant moment for all of us.
Also, the Roys, Carters, and Mackenzie joined for some joyous Monroe Thanskgiving, including the new tradition, Hot Pot Trot!
It was a good run and then we stuffed our faces! Good job, Mom!
Oh yes, and we had Thanksgiving with our FHE group and another group and it was awesome, full fledged home cooking!
Now I just need to construct a 25 page memoir, 5-7 pages of polished creative work, a whole semester's worth of accounting I never understood, and 3 press releases informing the imaginary public about Shakespeare's characters in the next two weeks!!! YIKES!
But then, home for Christmas! See you then:)
