Also, today Jordan and I celebrated our third anniversary of being married! Well, really we celebrated last weekend because we knew today would be busy with school. It was good that we did that too-- today I woke up really not feeling well. I went to school anyway, and kept feeling worse as the day went on. By the time I got to my fourth class (4/5, Mondays are busy), I was really starting to feel like I'd better head home. But it's one of my harder classes, so I wanted to go and make sure I didn't miss anything. Not an awesome idea. I ended up almost passing out, and had to get up and leave class to go lay on some chairs in the hall so I wouldn't faint/throw up. Not sure why I felt the combined feeling of nausea and lightheadedness at the same time, but that's what happened. Anyway I got excused from class and Jordan came to pick me up from school. I crashed hard and slept for four hours... thanks to the awesome eye covers Jord got me for my birthday (they were kind of a joke, but I LOVE them... lol what a sleeping snob). When I woke up I worked on a paper for my history class, and then Jordan came home with flowers and chicken soup in hand. What a man. Anyway, I had already decided I'd keep him, but getting taken care of today on our anniversary really drove it home :). Through thick and thin, right? Being married is the greatest. Well, mostly being married to Jordan is the greatest.
On a happier note, we were able to hang out with our friends Aaron and Tiffany last weekend (my really good friends from high school that got married). We went to Color Me Mine and had a blast staying up late talking afterwards. Jordan had to hit the sack earlier, but the three of us sat up gabbing for hours (2:45am I think... probably didn't help with my getting sick situation!). It was worth it though :).
On Saturday morning Jordan ran his first triathlon, and creamed it! His physical therapy boss offered to pay for his entrance fee kind of at the last minute, so he had just over a week to train. Luckily he's a crazy person that was already training for a marathon, so he was in great shape. He ended up taking 2nd in his age group, 3rd overall, and easily ran the fastest 5k splits at 5:35. Not bad for a first attempt!
Before, in the freezing weather
I can't tell you how much his form has improved... haha!
One of his buddies met with him in the morning all week
to train and improve his swimming. Miracle worker!
End of the bike-- check out those gorgeous mountains!
In transition
The Perry padres! So supportive. It was fun to have them there with me :)
Finish line!
The whole gang
What a hunky champ :)

Happy Anniversary! 3 years... you old pros! Sorry you were sick. That's why it's always best to celebrate early, on time, and late, just because you never know! :) Congrats to Jord on his triathlon. We need to get him, my dad, and a professional swimmer on a team and they'd be unbeatable. :)
Kelsi, cool update. 2 things....you know what nausia and lightheadedness often means to a young married woman right? And the second...I like your pic of the "padres" but 2 fathers..haha, you must have meant padre and madre right?
Amen Heidi! They'd be unbeatable :).
And Tant (right?)... ha, I'll keep you posted if that's the case. And ya know I always thought padres plural was female inclusive, kind of like... well now I can't think of it. But I could be totally wrong. I'll check with Jord the Spanish expert!
What a stud! Seriously, I cannot believe the athletic ability of that boy! Wowza!
And happy anniversary! 3 years! :) So wonderful!

Tant: Padres means parents in spanish :)
