Bryce goes to PROM!

Bryce decided that he wanted to go to Prom this year with some of his friends. He asked a girl that he knows from Lehi High school named Jillesa, and she said yes. For their daytime activity they went and did go-carts and went to Wendy's for lunch. They had their pictures taken at Westlake, then they went to dinner at a really fancy restaurant named Tuscany where they even park your car for you. The dance was held at another fancy place in Salt Lake called La Cay. He had lots of fun, and here are the few pictures that we got before he ran away!

Look how handsome he is in his tux!

Blowing kisses from his car!

Devin insisted that he wore the sunglasses...

Here is the corsage he got for Jillesa.

My first 5k!

This all started after basketball season ended.

I made a goal for myself to work on getting better at running. Since then, I've joined my school's track team. I'm running the 4oo meter race, which is probably one of the hardest races that there are because you're sprinting for one whole lap. I was going to try to do something else, but I decided to stick with it, and I'm actually starting to enjoy it. Our first track meet is on Wednesday.

As soon as I told my young women leaders that I was doing track, they were so excited! One of them ran the 4oo when she was in school, and she was so happy that I was going to do it. My other leader is a crazy runner! She runs races all the time and told me that I should run one with her. First she mentioned a half marathon, but I told her no way could I run 13 miles, and that I would do a 5k with her instead. So we looked around and found out that our stake was doing one on the 20th.

So this morning I woke up at 7:30 and went to the stake center to run a 5k! My young women leader ended up not even coming, but my friend Tyson did. It was my first one, and there were mostly adults there, but I was excited. I really didn't care if I finished first or last, I just wanted to finish. I also had a goal to run the whole time without stopping to walk. My mom, Bryce, and Jennifer came in the van to cheer me on.

Today I ran a 5k (3.1 miles) in a time of 33:08. I finished towards the end of the group, but I wasn't last. I never stopped to walk. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, and it was even fun! I think I'll probably try to run another one and see if I can beat my time.
