Under the Sun

The title of my blog means so much to me, and I was reminded of it this past week. You sit and try and think of some clever title, but really mine sums up what I love. I had two moments this week 'under the sun' that were the epitome of a perfect feeling to me.

The first running the 5k race through downtown Salt Lake while it was sunny and raining, I am pretty sure on that blog post I mentioned, in that moment things felt perfect.

The second moment was last night. Our friend Ryan oh so graciously took us out on his boat to Utah Lake. Just sitting there, staring out at the most beautiful sunset was another perfect moment for me. You just try to soak in natures beauty, and I am not trying to sound all mushy. Those outdoor moments are me. They are everything that I live for. The outdoor activities are what brings happiness to my whole being.

Other than that, I was attacked by a swarm of mosquitos (along with everyone else...), and am drowning myself in bath salts and cortizone cream. Today we might float the Provo River with some friends and I think I am going to insist on a stop to the store for bug spray. My body is not food for these insects!
