Happily married to Cody Draper, aka "You're an office park without any trees." I am blessed with two wild and energetic children Jaxon (3) and Lily (1)

I attended the Nursing Program at Utah State and am a recent graduate of Excelsior College. Currently taking a break from the "career path" to stay at home with my kids.

Bright and early for my non morning type personality. It has been chilly in the mornings (which is fine with me! Spring can last forever!) and as I was running, I looked down and swore there was snow in the ditch! On second glance- the last one before I passed it by- it was just cotton from all the cottonwood trees. Funny. I must have been thinking it was colder than it really was. 2 lazy miles in the cool morning air, I felt slow and sluggish, but still made it in 20 min. Fun. Now off for a fun filled day at Lagoon for Cody's company picnic. We'll see how it goes with two kids under 3!
