Weekend Wrap-Up: The Memorial Day Weekend Edition

Hi all!  I'm very grateful we had a 3 day weekend.  We had some fun!

On Saturday morning I ran a 10K race. Maya sent me off with a "Happy Run!" card...and then was my cheerleader, along with Boom, who was also my photographer.  The race was a good learning opportunity...I started off too fast, but I finished within my expected time frame.  So I was happy.

After lunch I took Maya to a gymnastics open gym, where she could do whatever she wanted for an hour.  She spent most of her time working on her one-handed cartwheels (she got them figured out!) and the beam. Later we ate dinner on the deck and the girls played outside.

On Sunday morning, Chris treated us to an unexpected brunch out at our favorite brunch spot!  Then we got all the paddle boards ready for the beach and Luna barely tolerated a hot walk.

Later in the afternoon we went to the beach...Paddle Board Season has begun!  Woohoo!!!

This morning the girls and I headed out to Auntie Yoda and Uncle Craigles' house for a BBQ lunch and DQ treat.

This afternoon we headed to Auntie Cat's house for another outdoor meal and playtime!

There may have been some water squirter wars…

…and sticky S’mores.

There are lots of planes that fly over Auntie Cat’s house, and Isla loved watching them. How cute is this picture??? (Photo credit: G-ma).

Have a great week!

A Picture Update

Hi all. Happy Friday. 

This school year is craaaaawwwwlling to a close (literally at a snail’s pace). But I’m here. 

We had a friend’s birthday dinner on a patio, I’m happy to be back in training, and we watched the Survivor finale (some of us in robes on exercise balls).

My pots are growing in nicely (left side was a few weeks ago, right side is this week).

There was talent show and show choir and ice cream.

And I hope a very early bedtime tonight…

Have a great long weekend! I’ll be back on Monday night for the wrap-up.

Weekend Wrap-Up

Happy Sunday!  We had a nice weekend...it was a combination of productive at home with some busy outings. 

Our outing for the day was Lucy's dance recital and then an outdoor pizza dinner at Auntie Yoda and Uncle Craigles' house.

This morning I had my half marathon training week 2 "long run" and it was lovely.

Later Maya and I walked to the park, and then she had gymnastics.  

Tonight we met the Dahlen's for dinner on Snuffy's patio, and the children spent time hanging out in front of the Snuffy's sign...

Have a good week!

A Picture Update

May is a marathon…not a sprint. The girls have 2 weeks of school left, and I have 3. We will make it. But holy moly. 

Here are my pictures from the week: Luna is not a warm weather dog, hazy sun, early morning runs, and a rooftop patio dinner. 

Have a good weekend!

First up: Mother’s Day 2014/2023

And then the poor little playhouse 11 years later…ha!

(Yes, that is the roof completely caved in, and the creepy girl in the background no longer fits in the house like she did 11 years ago…but her cousins do!)
