A Run to Remember!

I never thought getting up at 5am would be worth it.  Today it was!  Kelsey and I did the 5K walk and Clay did the marathon relay.  It is such a wonderful way to remember people that were taken from us in such a horrific way.  The path of the marathon is lined with a banner for each person who died in the Murrah bombing.  It's an amazing experience!!

Rebecca Update

So.....I got a new job!! YAY! I will be the Events and Promotions Coordinator for the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma. I am very very excited! My first day is May 1st!!! I'm going to have to get used to being at work at 8am...no more 8:30....ugh. I've gotten very spoiled! I don't even remember what traffic is like at that time.....yeesh!

Random Things

Last weekend for Mackenzie's birthday Tad took Mackenzie to Pole Position....Clay and I tagged along.  It was pretty interesting to say the least.  Apparently it's a pretty popular place...we ended up playing video games for an hour before it was our turn.  Clay, Tad, and myself were in a race together.  Tad finished 3rd, Clay 5th and me...well I came in last, 11th to be exact...Hey!  Someone has to right?!  Mackenzie got to race with other kids her age....she came in 2nd!  I should've been in her race!  We all had a blast...after we went to Freddy's Frozen Custard...YUM!!!

On another note....my cousin, Jennifer Jacobson, had a kidney transplant today.  It turned out her best friend from grade school decided to go through all the testing and ended up being a PERFECT MATCH!!  It really made me think...would I have the guts to do that for a family member or friend??  That really takes a strong person to decide they want to give up one of their kidneys for a friend.  It takes courage to save another person's life.  As soon as Jennifer received Mel's kidney it was functioning good as new.  They will both be in the hospital for 5 days at UCLA Med. Center.  Keep them in your prayers!!!

Peyton's Soccer Game

Peyton pretty much dominated!!!  She scored three goals...the only goals her team had!  It was so much fun watching the Pixie Chicks.

Welcome!!

I thought this would be a fun way to keep in touch with everyone. Or at least let everyone see what we are up to. We are in the midst of our new journey called Married Life and we thought we would let you take a peak inside.
We have now been married for 3 months....jeez it's gone by extremely fast! We literally hit the ground running too! We went to St. John for 7 days, came home just in time to celebrate our first married Christmas. Then we turn around and it's New Year's Eve and Clay's birthday. Next thing you know Clay and I are leaving for Las Vegas for the World of Concrete 2008! In February throw in a couple Bachelor and Bachelorette parties and Valentine's Day. In March we went to 2 weddings (one in Dallas and one in OKC) then celebrated multiple birthdays!! Including my own! Which I think was a milestone birthday even if no one else thinks so...hey...25 is big! OH...and I almost forgot Easter....Easter in March...who knew?!
On top of all of that we're adjusting to me moving into "his" house!! Which has been interesting to say the very least! We're having a good time though...lots of laughs! Clay is slowly learning where to put wet towels, dirty clothes go in the hamper, etc. As for me...I'm just doing all the teaching... :) Eventually when we get a dining room table we will be having everyone over to see Casa de Holmboe.
