One day while driving along with the kiddos, we passed two women running together on the sidewalk. Evelyn was all excited and yelled, "Look mommy, cool runner girls like you!!" :)

Park, anyone?

We practically live at the park. Seriously. The kids love to climb, swing, slide, etc -- and they want to do it ALL.THE.TIME!! I love to do those things too -- so we make a good combination. No plans for the long weekend -- other than playing outdoors :)




Can you tell that the kids like the motorcycles? I just realized that the pictures were all similar. I guess part of the reason is because they are staying still, too!!!

In other news, my foot is healing. Physical therapy has been helping a lot. I wore the boot for about a week... and then moved on to shoes with good arch support (I've been living in tennis shoes). I finally got the okay to start doing some cardio again. Still can't run... but watch out StepMill, Elliptical, Rowing Machine... here I come!!!

Also including a finish line photo from the race -- I decided to order a picture from the photography group at the event. Hoping this wasn't my last half marathon... but it will definitely be a memorable one!

Super cute pics! Of course because they are super cute kids!

Glad to hear that you are healing and a giant congrats on your half marathon! I'm impressed!!

The finish line picture is great!

Glad to hear your foot's improving! The step mil thing that I tried isn't so bad, it's hard so it's probably more calorie burn than running.

Glad you've gotten to get to the park a lot, the kids look like they love it!

I love the picture of you crossing the finish line. It looks great. I wish I would look that great after running a half marathon :)

We definitely have to catch up this coming week. Miss you!!

The park pictures are great. I'm glad the clouds and cold weather didn't slow you down. And what a GREAT picture of you crossing the finish line. I know it was a painful one, but hopefully you won't experience that ever again.

Hope to be able to get together again one of these days!
