The Color Run! Shine!

February 28th Steve, Emma, and I went out to Vegas and ran the Color Run with my Brother and his family. It was such a great run! The event is not timed so there is zero stress and it was a great first race for all of our children. I also thought it was pretty…

The Two Most Important Things I Know

The two most important things I know, I learned from my dad. They’ve stayed with me because they are truth. They have shaped who I am and have helped me reason through almost every event in my life. It’s not just me, I see it run like a ribbon through the lives of my siblings and…
