I'm not sure what the event was or exactly how old I was; I think perhaps 4... But it's of me and him smiling and I couldn't love it more!
What a blessings father's are! I didn't really get much time with my father here on earth, but I can tell you i've been very very blessed because of him. I'm grateful for my daddy, I miss him and it sure felt like the cruelest thing to happen to a kid, to loose their dad. It sure has made me resent the father's day holiday for a very long time now. Ironically it takes loosing my mom to realize how selfish i've been. My mother was every bit a father to me as she was mom. It's terrible that she had to take on both roles, but she did. I love my mom and am forever grateful for her and her amazing perseverance.
For me, Father's day is a second day to remember my mom and how amazing she was; no offense dad ;) Funny note, Look how much my brother Taylor looks like my dad! CRAZY!
Happy Father's day to my brother Taylor! Who's adorable boys make me feel genuinely like the luckiest aunt in the world! Yay for family, Yay for fathers.

So Yeah it's been a while since posting, nearly two weeks. My bad. It's been a crazy couple weeks. Last week I broke my tooth eating gluten free pretzels. (shakes fist) "Curse you Pretzel scum!" totally freaked me out. Which prompted my first trip to the dentist in an embarrassing 10 years. (bows head ashamed)
I went in on Wednesday last week with the worst anxiety ever. I don't like dentist, don't like the smell of dentist offices... don't like the idea of drills in my teeth! The whole thing is yucky times a million. But being an adult, I had to.... adulting sucks!
So, xRays taken, I'm in better shape than you could expect after 10 years, but sill in pretty bad shape. Dang it! Got a root canal that very day on the broken tooth. Yikes!!!
It went surprisingly well considering how badly I was expecting/anticipating it would be. It was uncomfortable but I think i was lucky, the recovery time has been quick.
Post root canal pic:
(sorry, no gross tooth close up pictures... I know you're really disappointed) proud moment though... I even exercised the day after my root canal! Sported my new "Color Run" tee shirt! Woot!
Before & After!
I'm going to own these next goals of mine, I've officially made plans/set dates. I'm going rock climbing with my co-worker and my sister Melisa on July 30th! and again on September 24th. It's going to be crazy, rock climbing is something I never could do or even really tried because of my weight. I'm going to do it! I'm going to rock it!
#sweatyselfie catchups for the past couple weeks. opps!
This isn't a sweatyselfie but got to share on a day that I felt cute! <3

Yesterday I got to go see Finding Dory, oh my gosh it's so good.
I was crying almost instantly, what a good story... I cry at movies, that's what I do, I've come to accept it as just who I am! I loved this movie and it totally rocks. Better than I could have hoped. I recommend you all go see it. And it you love Dory as much as me... bring some tissues ;) don't worry you won't be alone, the theater was full of adults crying. 13 years is a long time to wait for a sequel. #worthit
Anyways... tomorrow is a new week, a new day, and my brother-in-law Scott's Birthday. Should be awesome! "Just Keep Swimming, Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming.... what do we do? Swim, Swim!"
