At the beginning of the month, we took the kids to Creative Chaos! We love to see the local artisans selling their wares. The kids all wanted to have their faces painted. This is the result.
A beautiful fairy princess!
A three headed dragon!
And Osama bin Laden! :)
Edwin's class put on the play, "The Three Billy Goats Gruff". He was the moyen (middle) billy goat and did a great job!
I turned 34 this month. Ryan ordered Thai (my favy), we went on bit of a bike ride, had marble slab "cupcakes" and then they all came to cheer for me at my beach volleyball game.
My BIG birthday gift was a weekend away. I spent the night at UBCO thursday night so Ryan wouldn't have to drive me to the airport at 4:30am with the kids. The university rents out the dorm rooms for a great price. Here is my cute little room.
After an airport fiasco because of a late cab.... long story, I made it to Seattle in time to pick up my race packet and swag bag for the Seattle Rock 'n Roll Marathon. My dear sister, Maria came with me and we had a great time at the Expo grabbing as much free stuff as we could. :)
That evening we met up with my old time BYUH friend, Lisa, that I hadn't seen for 15 years! It was such a great night.
My sister, Sarah met up with us as well and ran the 1/2 with me Saturday morning. I have been really sick the last 2 weeks and was a little nervous about my run but did fairly well. Unfortunately, I walked a bit and had stop at the honey pots which really slowed me down. But I finished in 2:06. Better than the first year I ran but worse than last year. Not bad after 2 weeks of no training right before the race.
Post race posing...
Our wicked runner's calves. Yes, my legs are hairy and goose bumpy.
Posing "Marilyn" style waiting for the light rail. I look just like her, don't I? :)
After the race we headed up to Vancouver and met up with my parents and dear friend, Rachel to see Wicked. It was WICKED!!!
School ends tomorrow and we are SO excited for summer to start. Here's hoping the summer weather comes too :)
