Roller Blading!
I’m getting creative in my exercising! I took my blades up to the canal trail and did 45 minutes. The only bad parts are when you have to go under the roads and it gets a little steep and has some big bumps. I did enjoy it!

75 Hard
On Monday April 11, I started my 75 Hard Challenge. LaNell and Erica are doing it with me. My motivation … I’ve tried and failed for the last 6 years. I signed up for the Spartan thanks to Mal and this seemed like as good a time as any to try to get in shape.
I have to drink a gallon of water every day
Read 10 pages of non fiction each day – I’ve been doing the Book of Mormon
Do two 45 minute work outs each day – one of them outside
Follow a diet: I’m only eating between 10am and 8pm (I try to do 12-7) and no sugar in the first 3 ingredients unless it is homemade.
MY PEOPLE!
I had so much fun taking pictures with all my robertson siblings and my mom! just missing jana leigh!

Braces and Boarding!
Packer has Braces! Since March 2nd!
After he got the braces we went up to Sundance to Snow Board. It was Packers first time. He did really good. He just took off and fell down a bunch and popped right back up. It was a HOT day and the snow was pretty good. Much better than the ice that Benji learned on. we had a lot of fun and even went up to the top of the main lift!
Jana’s Week!
Battle of the Books, Snowboarding, orthodontists, Plumbers and sledding!
I helped at the school Monday morning with Erica, Tuesday morning with Abbie and Thursday morning with a new person. We give the kids the questions and keep score. Rose and Ray were both in it this year so it was fun to see them and their friends.
I spent the rest of Monday at the rental house meeting with a couple of plumbers and trying to get the main bathtub shower fixed. At the end of the day they had not fixed it but we had a plan to attack it in a week. It was frustrating because I knew what was wrong but none of them would accept anything I had to say so there was a lot of wasted time. BUT Jerry did fix the downstairs shower and helped me light the pilot light and make a plan to fix the kitchen sink water pressure.
I went up snowboarding on Tuesday after Battles!
On Wednesday Packer got his braces on! and then he and I went Snowboarding!
On Thursday I took Cali to the ortho – she had to change the brackets on the bottom and then hurry to soccer practice. I also raced over to catch Tiago’s first basketball game.
And on Friday I got to go hiking and sledding with Jamie and Erica, Shelley and Meredith. And Ben and I went out to the movies to see Batman that night.
Saturday we updated our food storage and watched the kids basketball and soccer and watched BYU lose 🙁
And on Sunday I got called to be the 2nd counselor in the Primary Presidency!
Field Trip
I went to the Museum of Natural Curiosity with Millie and her class!! This was our group: Bailey, Millie, Riley and Kate.
And to make it even better: Millie got STUDENT OF THE MONTH!!
Back at Sundance!
IT SNOWED!!! There was so much snow. I had to learn a whole new style of snow boarding. I caught up with Erica up there and we had a fun morning!
February 16
1 YEAR
It’s been one year since I got the text that Dad was gone! It still hurts to write that. It still feels like he might be coming back. I miss him so much. I spent the day talking to mom and my siblings and I watched the funeral stories that all of us siblings told and tried to remember all the awesome things he did and was. I wish he was still here planning our next trip and bringing mom out for the next Utah get away. Life isn’t fair. I’m still not sure why it was His time! I cried all month. Every time I drove by the cemetery. Or thought about how last year at this time we were praying, last year we were calling an emergency family meeting, last year we all fasted and dad got better. He got off the oxygen. He got over the blood clot. Mom got to visit him! and she got to see him again when she dropped off her valentine. All the times I tried to call and he never answered. . . and then he was gone. We thought he was better and moving to a facility and we could come visit as he got better and better and then the Dr. calls and his heart stopped and that’s it.
It hurts when I stop and feel all the feels and take the time to miss him but that’s what I did on Wednesday. I put being a mom and wife on the back burner and I was just a kid and a sibling for the day. Ben was super aware and let me have my day and gave me a framed photo, Erica took me to lunch, Abbie and Kristin sent treats, Katie Call sent a box of love.
I miss you Dad
The Rental House
All during Feb I was working on the Rental house. Old renters left on the 10th. I listed the house and showed it a few times and tried to fix things up and got the inside walls all painted. And the carpets cleaned and I scrubbed windows and walls and caulked some edges. The carpets need replaced but the renters that I liked have dogs so I am allowing the dogs and they are allowing the ugly carpet. The Gibsons left and the DenBoers are coming in. I still have stuff to do over there – like fix the plumbing in the main bath shower. But it’s starting to wind down and I can go back to being a stay at home mom instead of a landlord 🙂
