Busy Weekend

I can't believe it's been an entire week since I've posted!

Our first full week back in preschool went well. Drew had his share day on Monday and shared a picture of his family. Tuesday was our first Mom Connection meeting and we had a yummy brunch and the kids had fun in their classrooms. Wednesday I joined the Community Bible Study that meets at Drew's preschool and also squeezed in my gravity gym class before it was time to pick him up. Thursday was enjoyable because we didn't have to get up and get ready to go somewhere quickly. We ended up going to the library for story time and checked out three dinosaur books. Friday was preschool for both kids while I ran four miles and had my class at the gym.

Then, Friday evening was our women's retreat for church. I was the MC. The weekend was a lot of fun and we focused on being Christ-like friends. I didn't get home from the retreat until late Saturday and then got up at 5:15 Sunday morning to run 10 miles for my training for the Cowtown half-marathon. The reason for the early morning was that I had to be done in time for our marriage class before church at 8:30. After church we had a carnival with lunch provided for everyone and bounce houses and waterslides for the kids. And after that I made a quick trip to the hospital to visit Ari, who is doing much better, thankfully.

Anyway, with all that going on I am exhausted! I am going to bed early so I can get up early and catch up with all the laundry and preparations for the week tomorrow. Here are a couple of photos from the weekend.

That exhausted me just reading it. I thought my week was busy. Add all that running to it and it's completely crazy. Your doing an awesome job sticking with your training. Keep it up. You'll get through the half marathon with no problems.
