My Mother's Day

I had a FANTASTIC Mother's Day.  Scot helped the girls make me Mother's day cards and I was surprised with a wonderful purple flower basket.   Scot made me my favorite breakfast, an omlet.  The best part is he cleaned up the kitchen.  Then for lunch we met up with Scot's family at Salt & Pepper.   Lunch was great and the girls did wonderful.  Trust me, I am not complaining one bit about not having to make lunch!!  Later in the evening I was able to enjoy one of my favorites, McDonald fries and a Diet Coke with my mom.  

Fifth Third River Bank Run

 I DID IT!!!   I ran my first 10k at the age of 34 and I am PROUD to say I completed it in 1:05:17!!!  I can't believe it....but I think I am addicted to running.   Where or Where will my next race be???

Congratulations Amber!!!!

Today we celebrated with my sister, Amber, as she graduated from Cornerstone College with her bachelor's degree.   CONGRATULATIONS SIS!!!

Yard Work

AWESOME......78 Degrees on March 17...in Michigan!!!  What a fantastic day!   Today all four of us spent the majority of the day enjoying this wonderful weather.  We spent all morning cleaning out our flower beds and getting them ready for bark.   We took a break for lunch and ate on the deck for the first time this year.  

And of course, the girls had to break in their slide.  Check out Skylar's clothes that she picked out, floral pants and a stripped shirt.  I have to give her credit for at least matching the right colors. 

 When we were all done with our yard work, I took Trigger for a walk and Scot took the girls for a Ranger Ride to Uncle Paul's.   When I got back from my walk, this is how I found Alysha:

Scot explained to me that she fell asleep on the Ranger Ride and that was the end of it for her. 

Skylar, however, was still going strong.  She took the opportunity to help Scot on his boat.   This weather makes me so ready for summer!!

Bye Bye Cribs...Hello Toddler Beds

Bye Bye Cribs.....Hello toddler beds! We made the decision to turn the girls' cribs into toddler beds because
Alysha kept crawling out of her crib. It was sad for me to see the cribs changed over to toddler beds. My girls are growing up so fast!! The girls were very excited to have "Big Girl Beds"!! Scot had to go into the girls room three times to tell Alysha to stay in her bed. Other than that, the first night was a success.
