Snow day

So last Thursday was a snow day for us. We got Derek the WHOLE day!! Edison loves to wrestle but insisted that he needed to wrestle as a lion so...we busted out his costume. Rather than putting Stewart in his frog, we went for the dog that was a little too big. He would crawl around on the floor with his head all the way down because he wouldn't see. It was hilarious, but those animals got their Daddy!




















We decided to go play in it. It took us a little while to get all suited up but here's Edison,ready to venture out...and looks happy about it.




Look at how much snow we got!!! A foot at
least!














Did a little sled ride for Edison and even went down the street to get the mail but that was not such a good idea. The wind was bad and very cold. As we trudge along the sidewalk, at least where we thought the sidewalk was, I kept thinking of the pioneers crossing the plains in the winter. How did they do it??? So glad I don't have to, but respect them even more for their sacrifice.



So before going outside, I mentioned we would have hot chocolate when we came in because we would get so cold. Well, having heard the word chocolate, Edison wanted to skip the getting cold part. We still made him go out but he loved coming back in.

Before lunch, Derek picked Balto out to watch and the boys cuddled up!













After playing so much, they needed a little snooze!
















But while the big boys slept, Stewart was exploring his closet!!















That night, we busted out he wii and had fun fishing, racing cows, and shooting clay pigeons. It was an awesome day! We love our Daddy!!

The Galloping Goose 10 K



So a group of us crazy girls decided to train for a race together!! Well...the day came and I had a blast.

Of course I've never been so happy to see a finish line before and cross it, but the whole experience was wonderful.


The best and hardest part was training for it. Our schedules didn't all match up so I mostly trained with Jessica Checketts! She was willing to TALK to me and not listen to music so we were a perfect fit!! We ran the whole race together, until the 6 mile mark. Thanks Jessica, for such an awesome experience!


Stewart was happy to have a medal to play with...

And I was so happy to have my family there to cheer me on.

Thanks girls for an amazing experience...the next race, we'll go with Margaret/Whitney's race idea ;)
