   Professional runners like Sue have their perfected running playlists.  Then there are those whose running  is so pure that they only need the slap of their footprint to keep them going.  Beautiful.

  But me ?  Each time I run I have to find my rhythm  for that day.  Some day it just clicks immediately. Mostly I have to go through many songs to get in my groove.  Ahhhh, but when I do find it..I am in heaven.

 It doesn't come as any surprise that my whole life runs on this practice. Except that the "days it clicks immediately" are Very rare.

 My sweet Dallin asked me to write down my conversion story. That he had  heard bits and pieces all his life , but never really the whole experience. Well - I thought , I have born my testimony enough times to easily crank this out on paper. And heaven knows I retell stories often enough..ha ( had to say that before you thought it !) Should be simple.

  I put on my music - because I always need a playlist going in my head. I put pen to paper and it started to flow. But I couldn't stop it, and I couldn't stop the tears. And it still kept coming, and the music selections were excellent. I told Dallin that it wasn't a pretty story because it had to include everything..but it was nirvana to me. It was cathartic to me.  Thank-you for asking Dallin, you always keep me on the right playlist :)

october 31st

                                   Jane could not have been more darling as Tinkerbell !!
                         Harrison kept the odd Haycock tradition of collecting as MUCH candy as possible. Went out with a huge group of deacons and beehives. Only "snowboarder" in the gang..we aren't in utah anymore !
                         Made our traditional spaghetti and eyeballs for dinner..somehow though, these look "friendly"...kind of like Elmo with blood shot eyes.  Still tasty :)
            Love this picture of peter pan ( NOT robin hood..as some mistakenly thought.)
              Poppy and Cooper dressed alike for daytime activities.   Happy guys these two.
            Kerriann went as kitty purry.  she even posed as a sleeping cat for me. a Good halloween !
