Catching up!

Life seems to get busy, and somethings get set to the wayside.  Our blog has suffered because of how busy we have been.  It's a good busy!  We have been very babysitting for friends, preparing for races and getting our house painted.  All fun stuff, if you ask me.

Paul had become quite the babysitter.  Always available to lend a hand to our friends.  We just love having children in our home.  Running around, playing with what little toys we have.  Making a mess!!  That's my favorite.  Besides, it's easy to clean up when you only have one little bin of toys.  We can't wait for the day that we can go to Toys R Us and stock up on all the fun toys out there.

I have been busy getting in shape, preparing for the Ragnar Relay.  Can you say Run, Eat, Drive, Sleep, Repeat?  That's the motto for the race.  It is a 12 person relay race and we did the one in Southern California.  Huntington Beach to Coronado Island 200.9 miles.


16.0 miles, that was my portion of the mileage!!!  4.3 on leg one
5.6 on leg two
6.1 on the last leg!!!






I was lucky enough to share Van #1 with these 5 amazing women.  Gabby runner #3, myself runner #4, Erin runner #1, Mallory runner #2, Nikki runner #6 and Lynette runner #5.  What an awesome group.  Our van really got along well and it was a memory that I will cherish forever.  Thanks Ladies!!





My favorite show ever!!! The Biggest Loser... this is us with 2 of past season contestants.  Season #1 winner Eric, and season #9 Sione.  Yea, for meeting "famous people".









This is all 12 of us after runner #12 crossed the finish line!!!  200.9 miles completed, where is the next race?

Oh yes, it's the FSA Adoption 5K.  There's still time to sign up:  www.redlineraces.com





We got our master bedroom and bath painted.  We painted the bedroom green and the bath purple.  It looks really nice.  While I was in California Paul put up the pictures and candle holders.  Pictures to come.

That's enough for one post I think.  There is more to post, and hopefully I can get it done in a timely fashion.

Love Always,
April!!
