Anthony's Half Marathon 2010

This is Anthony's third year running the Salt Lake City Half Marathon. I ran last year and I have to say I was a bit jealous of him running again (it's my own fault for not preparing). It's quite an exciting race that runs right near our house.

Anthony's time this year was 2 hours 4 minutes and 57 seconds (2:04:57). I was so happy that I actually got to see him cross the finish line! The first year he ran (2008) I was stuck in traffic. The second year (2009), I was running so I didn't get to see him, but the third year (2010) was a charm. I was right next to the finish line and he even saw/heard me!

Congratulations, Anthony! You are amazing!

April Fool's Day

Okay, the only reason I'm spilling the beans now is because I know that Anthony won't read my blog today (he's busy prepping for a presentation at school). Otherwise, I would wait until tomorrow to tell my diabolical schemes I have planned. PLEASE DO NOT TELL HIM MY PLANS!

Last night, I smeared the toilet seat with peanut butter and even put a little on the toilet paper roll. It looked disgusting! When Anthony finally came upstairs (around 2 a.m., mind you), I heard this sweet little "Brooke....are you feeling okay?". I started snickering and couldn't cover up that I had made a silly prank. I made him think I was really sick and left the bathroom in a nasty state.

Here are my other pranks I'm planning on doing to him today (I'll have to thank the young women of my ward for some of their ideas):

• Put liquid soap on the doorknob to the house from the garage (so he can't open the door)
• Give him a shower of butter- basically, you carve a bar of soap out of a stick of butter. It looks and feels just like soap. He takes showers at night, so I should have time to prepare this. This one will be hilarious!

Wish me luck that he doesn't get too mad. I'm still thinking of some more pranks I could pull, but I think these are good for now.
