Fridays are blocked off for Isabella and Marvin. After school we always get together for some Friend Fun!
I think it is so cute that Marvin and Owen arrange which days to wear their matching shirts.
Meg and I spent a morning painting pottery. She painted this cupcake and was soooo excited to pick it up and see how it turned out.
P'tite Mom came to spend a night with us.
She stayed with the kids while Pascal and I ran a half marathon.
Here we are getting ready to go and run the race.
I wanted to give a shout out to my running partner who was unable to run the race with me.
She has been training with me for the last few months and has been so faithful.
she always:
1. ran the exact same pace as me
2. let me pick the course
3. never turned down a run
4. would run with me with a moments notice
5. talked, sang, prayed with me along the way
6. I missed her every step of the way during the race
A big thank you to:
I ran 1 min. over my target time, and it was a fantastic experience.
It started at 6:30 in the evening and there were over 5,000 runners. That's me in the back with the yellow balloon! .....just kidding I was actually so fast I past those Kenyan runners in order to get this shot!
I think it is funny that when I finished the race, the winner of the full marathon came in 5 min. before me! It was unlike anything I have ever done and was truly an amazing experience. I loved it!!
It's always so hard to see P'tite Mom go back to Switzerland. We love it when she visits!
Pascal got to spend Mother's Day with his mom!
It was a busy but exciting weekend! Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day, we sure enjoyed ours!
I CAN'T wait to hear all about your race!! Funny about the winner, it happened to me as well, except I thought all the loud cheers were for this girl who looked like she was dying as she crossed the finish line, nope, it was because "That is right folks it is Ryan the winner of this years race..." He left me in his breaze :)however, kind of cool to share the finish line with him!!
