Updates on the Matsons!

It's that time again! Time to update everyone on the Matsons. Everything is going well with us. We are working hard and trying to keep everything going in the right direction. Tyler just finished the cycling season. Last weekend he rode in a relay race called Salt to Saint (Salt Lake to Saint George). He rode the first leg of the relay which included some really big climbs. He actually dropped a PROFESSIONAL MOUNTAIN BIKE RIDER!! It was really awesome to hear about. His whole team worked really hard and they actually won the relay overall. They completed over 420 miles in 20 hours and 1 minute. Tyler was so tired, he actually fell asleep in the middle of eating a piece of bread. Yesterday Tyler had his last race of the season. He took 9th in the Harvest Moon Criterium Race. It was so much fun to watch him race!

Last weekend, I went to lunch with my Mickelsen family for my grandma's birthday. Then we went and bought peaches and on Saturday, I bottled peaches and went to a baby shower for Kelsee and Adri. Adri had her baby this week...a week sooner than expected. She is a little cutie! Yesterday, Tyler took Braelyn with him in the morning and let me go to the Celebrating Sisterhood Party and Seagull Book and Tape. Then I went and watched him race along with Kaytie, Toby, TJ, Chase and a bunch of other cycling friends. Tomorrow I have a job interview for Deseret Book. I'm really excited and hope that I can get the job!

Braelyn has become my little chatterbox! She loves to talk and sing and squeal. She is so much fun. She is getting really big and growing so much. I love playing with her everyday and I never get anything done anymore. But I won't take back the time I spend with her to clean. I can always clean when she is napping or asleep at night. But I can never get the time back if I don't play so I'll cherish it while I can!
