Rugby in a winter wonderland (Hay)

Soooo.. This past weekend I went to Cedar City to play rugby against Southern Utah University (SUU). I was pretty sad about it from the beginning because I heard the weather was going to be bad and it would just be miserable. However, I went anyways because I was NOT going to be a baby. Stayed at my friend's Aunt's house which was nice. The next day there is Christmas all around! Maybe 3 inches of snow covering the field? Well.. no big deal we will play rugby in anything?! Fine.. So here are some pictures from the game. I don't want to hear any more talk about nice weather in AZ haha jk. This game turned out to be really fun. The sun came out sometimes and warmed everyone up a bit. The only thing I was sad about was that I could not feel my feet. Oh well, who needs to feel their feet?! Haha.. Anywho, I sucked when I played which was like the last 5 mins. I got laid out by a big girl one-on-one and then she scored and then the game ended haha. I was pretty disappointed with myself, but I am over it now. Enjoy the pics! Please someone post pictures of the following: Gretta in her strawberry costume, Max in his costume that I don't even know what it is ughh, Sam in his costume, and everything else that is going on. THANK YOU AND GOODBYE!

The crew walkin away from warm ups ha.

I am pretty awesome in this one :)

Oh Oh I am awesome in this one too... Mouth Guard! ;)

I had to put this one up because she isnt looking so I nailed her in the boob on accident haha oops!

 UV RUGBY on 3!!! ;)

Love you all, Hayley Beth

a new outlook

so i might be overly worried about my big butt BUT i'm not as bad as a lot of girls (most of which don't have big butts at all). i just mainly want to be the healthiest I can be. and feel good about myself.

number 1: i know i feel good about myself when i eat healthy food.
number 2: i know i feel good about myself when i exercise that day.
number 3: i know i feel good about myself when i spend a little time getting ready.
number 4: i know i feel good about myself when i pray and read and choose to be happy that day.

with that said, the question is... WHY DON'T I DO THESE THINGS. EVERYDAY!?!?

life gets me busy, i get lazy, i want some brownies, i am HUMAN. i'd rather lay on the floor with gret.

there are many excuses that i use. and i would like to say that each one of them is totally valid!

let's try a new outlook: it's not about loosing weight. it's about treating ourselves good and caring enough to nourish ourselves physically and spiritually.

My eyes are green (Hay)

Hey dudes.. So I have been having some more fun lately. Here it goes...

The team I coach WON the state championship!! Sooo awesome :)

I went to Las Vegas with some friends :)

Don't mind the shirts (they were a joke for Toni), but this is the entire group!

We met Elvis who is actually also a reverend haha ;)

The shops were fun too! So cute

And then I dressed up as Justin Bieber for my Halloween ward party.. kinda dumb I know ha. 

Anywho... here is a little bit of what I have done. I have also been going on dates with a guy named Mike Smith, whom of which you can look up on facebook under my friends if you want. I am undecided about him, but I am very happy that I am actually going on dates with someone. Umm.. Jacob Bluth comes home Friday so that will be interesting ha. Last night I hung out with friends in Lehi and we drove around collecting peoples pumpkins from their porches and we put them all on the doorstep of this girls house haha! There were 86 pumpkins!! We counted them :) And we stacked them up the door so when someone opened the door they all fell in haha. And that is exactly what happened :) I have a picture but it is not working oops.. dangittt. Anywho, I wish someone would post something on here! Let me know what is going on with everyone and post some friggin cute pics of my nieces and nephews on here please!! Love you!!

My Goals for this week. -Mo

It is FALL BREAK! YES!

I have a few goals for this week and I hope they all get accomplished. None of them have anything to do with working. :)

1) Go to temple with husband.
2) Run 5 days (get up to 5 miles w/out stopping)(right now I'm at 4 w/out stopping, go me!)
3) Lift weights 3 days (or do a cycling class in lieu of one day)
4) Get over my repulsion with salad lately. Eat more GREENS!
5) Get Christmas present ideas (since I've been SO BAD the last couple years with gifts and I don't want to be like that this year)
6) Get a pedi
7) Love on Gretta as much as possible. (this should be number 1 or 2 on the list.)

Here's to a GREAT WEEK!

Welp... (Hay)

I guess I will continue blogging by myself because it is fun by myself. I hope you all are doing well. I got home from church about an hour or so ago and I was pissed off haha. I was trying so hard in sacrament (sacrament is last for me) to pay attention and feel the spirit and everything but it was soooo hard! There were people talking everywhere, which is really rude in my opinion to the speaker, and since it is a single's ward it is silent and you can hear the people talking. There were people talking right behind me about stupid things and I was mad. Kayla was to my right texting during sacrament, which I HATE with a burning passion. Maddie to my left was saying "I want chocolate chip cookies" which made me sad because I was hungry, but wanted to put my mind on what the speaker was saying. So I was mad and had some things to say but I kept them in. Then after sacrament ended a girl in my ward who has cerebral palsy I think and cannot move and cannot speak very well, spoke up and shared her testimony (she kinda does this after every sacrament and I love it). I was trying really hard to listen and understand her because she is really intelligent. But nope.. Kayla had to talk to me about sweet nothings. So I was still mad and the whole way home I was mad and annoyed and since this was the case, there was probably 7 words spoken haha. SUPER awkward :) Oh well haha! I dunno.. I am just unhappy with the way things go in some areas and so I don't say anything. Sorry I just vented. ON A HAPPIER NOTE... I did some fun things recently! Here are some pictures!

 It snowed... surprise surprise ;)

 I strained my calf :(

 I finally got a BYU sweatshirt :)

 I went to my first BYU football game finally :)

 I wore my new sweatshirt to the football game :)

I ate cinnamon roasted almonds at the game (my favorite!!) hahaa

I also went to the BYU spectacular (I sent you all the picture)

I also played rugby this weekend but no one took pictures of me :( 

I played well though and had good tackles and good kicks ;)

Love you all!

RUGBY?! (Hay)

So I guess I play rugby now haha. It is actually really fun! I am scared at practice because I feel like I could get hurt, but when it comes game time I am ALLLL bidness.. :) I only have this one picture because I haven't really been there enough to get pictures taken.. so be ready for more later. I hope everyone is well and stuff. I want this blog to start up again! Get postin ya'll..

P.S. I have coxsackie and I hate it :(

There's me on the sideline!! Bahaha :)

Dinner Tonight

Tonight I got home from work and immediately started cooking. I've been wanting to cook every meal lately (that does not mean I have!) I think it is the fall season in the air (not really in phx, but in my head) and the hope of cooler days when I can eat soups oatmeal and sip hot cocoa. I also want to wear sweaters. Really bad. But that's beside the point.

I started cooking and didn't know what I was going to end up with since we didn't have too many ingredients.. Amazingly it was Super delicious and healthy!

My Made Up White Bean Chili.

First I put onion, green onion and cilantro in the food processor and made it really finely diced. Then I put a can of organic kidney beans, organic white northern beans, and a can of vegetable broth in the chili pot and simmered it up. I cut up some celery and added it to the pan with the onion medley. Both cooked for about 10 minutes separately and then I put them together. Add Cumin, Chili Powder, Red Pepper Flakes, Salt and Pepper and VOILA! Delicious chili in about a half hour.

I also made vegan chocolate chip cookies...
Love Mollie

Half marathon

Well I haven't posted lately either. I'm so proud of my sisters and all of their cross fit/hiking/kayaking/mountain climbing/rugby/soccer/basketball adventures (that made me tired just writing it)!
I'm training for a half marathon. I'm a little freaked out for it but every time I finish a run I get more confidence in myself. I hope you all come to Sedona in February to cheer me on, that would make me really happy.

Love you all. Keep up the good work. We need some challenges on here again! Any ideas?
Mollie

It's Been A While... (Hay)

Well, it has been a while since I have posted on here so I guess I will right now even though I should be sleeping haha ;) I am so busy these days that I don't even have time to go to the bathroom. I am taking 19.5 credit hours, I am doing my soccer internship still, I am playing Rugby I guess?, I am on an intramural soccer team and just recently am on a basketball team too I guess?, and I just signed up for a cycling team. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.... what the HECK am I doing?! Anyways, it has been quite a ride already and it has been what 3 weeks? Bahaha.. we will see how things end up going. I have still found time to do fun things so I am okay with it. I wanted to share some pictures of the fun things I have done amidst the busy things. I hope everyone is doing well.. I love you all very much!

My Recreation class went hiking up Provo Canyon :)

They are an awesome group --> all in my major

It was really pretty and green and awesome :)

 There are cute guys in my program, but they are married :\

My class also went kayaking/canoeing this week, but no one took pictures :( 

Next activity is mountain biking up by park city and I am STOKED!

 I have gone rock climbing several times with friends :)

 It is really really fun and I love it :)

I love you all,

Captain Crossfit

I finally figured out how to post aren't you proud of me! Well as you all know I started Crossfit on Monday. Let's just say it has been quite the experience so far doing wall ball squats, jumping pull-ups, thrusters, climbing a rope wall, rowing, more squats, dead lifts, leap frogs, wall ball catch, sit ups, and gymnastics rings chest pulls! I can't believe some of the things I'm doing! And in between I hiked thumb butte twice! I hope I can keep it up!

Sunday Check in

We are back, 9 hours of driving, stopping only in Vegas for gas and Boulder for a drive in lunch! Whew! Needless to say, I did not do good this past week. Monday I walked and that's it. Babysitting, hospital, and Utah got in the way! Oh well, going forward!

Juustalipa (Hay)

Hey dudes! Sorry I did not check in on sunday but i figured i would later cuz i did a post shortly before. ANYWHO.. i have been running every single day except yesterday for some reason. but it has been real good. today i rode my bike to Heber Valley Milk "the creamery" which is right up the street. it sells raw milk, fresh cheese, fresh ice cream, and other trinkets like local fresh beef jerky, chocolate milk, crackers, fresh jams, fresh candies, etc. they have a huge window that looks into the section of the store where they make everything and today they were making cheese. it looked so weird.. but it was cool. I bought raw milk and a cheese called juustalipa (oo-sta-lipa) because the girl working there said it is her fave. this cheese is best WARM. so what you do is cut it into thin slices and then put it on a frying pan on low heat until it lightly browns then you just eat it. i just did that and it was sooooooo good. it almost didnt taste like cheese it was weird but good! the milk is cool too cuz you get a really cool glass jug that you can take back to get filled for less money. on the bottle it says "raw milk no matter how carefully processed may still be unsafe" haha! a little scary but it tasted good anyways ;) i have also done abs almost every night this week from a video on youtube called 8 min. abs (see video below). it kills but feels so good. alright i love you all i hope everything is going well :)

fresh goods :)

my background pic on my phone, i miss her

this is 8 min. abs! "hey gang" haha it is so old school i love it.. very modest dressers too ;)

Love, Hayley Beth
