Friday Morning Jog and Heaven on Earth

Friday morning started with another 6 AM jog with my mom (I've started to say jog because you can't really call it running when it's an average pace of 12 min miles) and we went to the most gorgeous part of the trail on the Jordan/Provo River Parkway in Lehi.  This time I brought my phone (and carried it in a super uncomfortable spot) just so I could show you!

 

 

Start at the trussle bridge in Lehi and head South on the trail

 This is my awesome morning hair.  I bet you want my hair cut now, right?

 

 

 View of Timpanogos from the trail before sunrise.  That is mist in that field.  This was straight out of Pride and Prejudice.  We just needed Mr. Darcy striding toward us with his giant coat billowing behind him..... A girl can dream

 

 

"Here comes the sun, do do do doooo."  We always sing that. :)  It's prettier in person but you get an idea.

I can't tell you how much I look forward to this jog every week.  It's the only morning I have to go and I LOVE it.  I'm spending time with my mama and seeing this beautiful earth and it's the most liberating feeling.  I can go for as far and long as I want and I have no phone or any body who needs anything from me.  Don't get me wrong, I love my life and I get so much more back from Eric and Mabel than I could ever give but this time is special for me.  I hope that some day I can go more often.
