Taming the Thorsons: June 2015
http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2015. So in the kid's terms, our trip to Aspen was the "best vacation ever"! We have had pretty amazing vacation in the pasts, and I know that kids have a hard time comparing those kinds of things-but it still felt good that despite my racing addiction we managed to have a pretty nice family weekend. Finishing up Ragnar Trail Relay in Snowmass Village left me feeling pretty run down. I mean I was running on 1 hour of sleep by the time we reunited at the finish line. School is over and s...

Taming the Thorsons: August 2015
http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 14, 2015. This past year I have had the awesome opportunity of being an ambassador for Ragnar Road Relay Series for their race in Colorado. It is has been so fun meeting other people who love this series as much as me, and together sharing our Ragnar love! I made the decision to captain a team early this year, which comes with the pressure of finding 12 people. My Dad may never forgive but I found my 1st 3 members on instagram! They were from PA and within a few weeks of talking and planni...

Taming the Thorsons: September 2014
http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 22, 2014. I am have been dragging my feet when it came to updating the blog because I have been wanting to post pictures of our new house. Yes, we are officially homeowners now! We absolutely love our house and the neighborhood. We even had a neighbor bring us flowers to welcome us! Alas, the house is a disaster zone despite our daily trips to home depot so there are no pictures to prove its beauty. But doesn't the front look good? We are slowly settling into a routine. All the kids...

Taming the Thorsons: Sweeter with Age
http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2015/08/sweeter-with-age.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2015. Joel and I are now another year older. On July 9th and July 10th we turned 36. There was a brief moment where I felt totally guilty that we hadn't brought the kids as it was so magical and fantastic! But of course the moment did pass. The kids and I designed a scavenger hunt on Joel's birthday with the big present in the end being a family night at a Colorado Rockies Game. The Rockies lost (very sad) but I learned about rally caps! Yup, I really didn't know this was a thing.

http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2014. The moments started with our annual trip to Busch Gardens. It is free for military in the summers and we always take advantage of this! We also bring along "cousin Alyson" to help mange having kids running in every different direction. Jesse and cousin Alyson on the swings. Josie is definitely not getting her license anytime soon! Asher is our roller coaster junkie! He rode every single one in the park. And a few he rode multiple times! Joel with Graham Boutz, Jeff Beers, and Russ...

Taming the Thorsons: November 2014
http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 24, 2014. Today's post was going to be a running entry until the weekend happened to me. A weekend that I feel like was a dream and I have found myself now awake back to the Monday blues of swim practice, grocery shopping, and kid's fighting. Did it really happen? Yes, I have the pictures and a ring on my finger to prove it! Seriously, sometimes a girl has just got to brag. Friday night at 10pm, my mother in law walked in (from Minnesota-surprise! This is what I found waiting for me in o...

Wednesday, October 22, 2014. Denver Rock n Roll Race Recap. This past weekend I ran the Denver Rock n Roll half marathon. So yes I am a little "half crazy" at the moment, this being my 5th half marathon this year (and I have another one in 3 weeks! I truly just love the experience of races and if I am going to run that far anyways I might as well get a medal for it! The start line with 18,000 other runners. There were 5 races to choose from in this event (all starting at the same time! I got so many comp...

Taming the Thorsons: December 2014
http://tamingthethorsons.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 24, 2014. Back in August, yes August when we first moved to Colorado, we loaded up on skiing gear and bought season passes to Loveland. We decided that we were just going to commit the first winter or how else would we know if we really loved it or not? It was nuts. We definitely overpacked as we had no clue what the kids were really going to need but it all worked out and now we are hooked, already trying to plan the next day trip as quickly as possible. The kids have to be 4 to be i...
