HELP...

Decorating fairy would you please stop by my house. I need finishing touches in about every room and some ideas of how to use the basement space now. I am available anytime you are.

Thank you...

the Dam 5k

A group of us did the couch potato to 5k in 9 weeks program. This is our first 5k after completing the program. I did not run the whole thing... I know shame on me... but I did run over half of it. We are starting the training again to get faster and this time I am not going to get some weird intestinal thing or a really bad cold in my lungs to interfere with the running... so my next one I can run the whole thing.... well... at least improve on my time with each one completed!!!

Trevor and the children came out on this cold ultra windy Saturday morning to support me. I am really grateful for a husband who understands how important this was to me and for children who were super excited to come and watch.

With doing this I have realized things about myself...

running really is not my exercise of choice

I get bored while running

I love doing things with others... enjoy the chatting

I like variety in my work out

I need to loose some of my baby love so I can see the leg muscles running gives you.

I have developed a wonderful friendship with these gals in my running group

I love ya Emily, Beth, Liisa, Jennifer L and Chris

Emily is not pictured... she had to attend a funeral.

WE DID IT - - -

WE FINISHED THE DAM 5K!!!

hahahahahahahahaha

strike a pose

Zach came up from the basement when I was about done taking pictures of Morgan and her hair. He told me to take a picture of him and so I turned and he struck his pose. Well... then of course... Morgan had to strike about 10 poses for me to take pictures of.

I love that you snap the picture and they instantly have to see it. I remember waiting days, weeks, months and in a few cases even years to see what was on the film..... oh to instant gratification.

Morgan and her hair

I had curled Katie's bangs before she left for school and hadn't put the curling iron away yet when Morgan spied it. She then asked me to curl her hair. I thought no problem put in a few curls and call it good. Oh no, she sat there for 10+ minutes. I would curl a piece of hair and her hand was up there letting me where to curl next. I would say we were done and she would then continue to tell me where to curl... so I had to get some pictures! She is so adorable!!!

and you can never just take one, well... I can't.
