The Man Takes On The Enduro Challenge

A few months ago The Man and went to an enduro challenge in Herriman City.  It wasn't something we'd ever seen before, but I had found the event on Facebook and it seemed to be up The Man's alley, so we went and checked it out on a date night.

Turns out it was very up The Man's alley.

So much so, that he started searching to find the next one, and signed himself up to be in it.

I just need to say that I was so excited to be in the stands cheering my man on.  I was so full of pride and love for him and had nervous energy eeking out.


And he nailed it.  He took home the 1st prize, which we found out right before the race contained cash money.  That made it that much better for The Man to want to play.

Waiting for The Man's turn to ride.

Cas joined us after our "date night" dinner and helped me cheer him on.  Mike was there as well, and so were some of West's riding buddies.  It was incredibly awesome to see people there cheering him on.

While we waited for his turn we watched the different classes of dirt bikes.  The Ameteur riders (one step above beginner, one step below pro) had some awesome outfits going on.

He's already itching to get signed up for the next one.

And I can't wait either.

The Enduro Challenge And Zombies. Not At The Same Time.

Over the weekend The Man headed over to Herriman City's Enduro Challenge.

Which overall was pretty cool to watch, especially when they put teeny, tiny 5 and 6 year olds on itty bitty dirt bikes that could barely clear (and in some cases not even) the first small log.

The four wheeler and rzr rounds have given The Man ideas, so we'll see what happens with that.

Also, over the weekend Fear Factory was cranking out makeups for the Salt Lake City Zombie walk.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I'm no fan of zombies.  Ever.  At all.  Unless it's a little bit in Warm Bodies, but even then the whole brain eating thing gave me the willies.

I can't take the garbage out in the dark after The Man has watched an episode of The Walking Dead.

And I walked out of the room when the first time he rented World War Z.

I just have no love for zombies.

But, that being said, they kind of come with the territory of doing makeup with a haunted house.

And so I often find myself surround by zombies.

The pictures are grainy because I stole them from a fellow makeup artists facebook post.  Thanks to her for actually attending the walk and getting some pictures.  As you know, I hightailed it home as soon as the makeup fun was finished, because there was no way I was going to hang out downtown with the lot of them.

These makeups are mine.

And this one was featured on the Salt Lake Tribune's website.  Which, if you ask me, is pretty dang cool. (Again, a grainy steal).

Haunting season is just around the corner.

My goals for this year are to get a better handle on a shallow cheek shade, figure out what I can do with my new air brush, and get faster at the prostetics so I can use them more often.
