Wish Us Luck
Tomorrow morning, bright and (kinda) early, I run my first 5K; Sam runs the 1 mile fun run and Jessie is doing the 150 yard tot trot. Squeeee! We’ve all got our clothes set out. Waffle mix is all ready to go. My victory dance is keeping cool in the fridge (a Guiness… for afterwards [...]
Great Morning Run & Allergies
Wow. This morning’s speed work run felt better than great. Did all 3 fast segments at a 10 minute mile pace and feel like I could do more. Weird. Really weird. But great too. I am dripping with sweat though. Even with the AC on the humidity is just about unbearable. But I feel fantastic. [...]

And so the sickness spreads

Happy Birthday to Sam
Friday was Sam’s 10th birthday party. This is him with the coveted DS game “Shadow the Hedgehog.” Can you tell he was excited? Instead of cake, I made a batch of chocolate chip cookies and impaled the top cookie with 10 candles. This was served with icecream. Everyone seemed content with this deviation from tradition. [...]

My Hero
Hero: “a man of distinguished courage or ability” according to the dictionary. Yep. That about sums it up. I could get sappy and wax poetic (at least I could try) about this man but I’m not sure it would explain it any better. Love ya hon!!! I knew you could do it. More pictures from [...]
