Performance Best Fitness Run 3/21/09

This last weekend, Jody and I ran in the PB Fitness Run to warm up for the To-Bone-and-Back Race in June. It was a bit chilly at first but the weather turned out to be perfect for running. It was really intimidating running next to such an awesome long time runner. I was able to stick with him the majority of the race but fell a little behind the last quarter mile of the race. As soon as I saw the finish line, I did my best to close the gap between us. I almost succeeded and finished literally a couple seconds behind him. He finished in 26 min 8 sec and I clocked in at 26 min 10 sec (yeah baby!) shedding a little over 30 seconds off my previous best time. I was so proud of Jody, who ran great after a long recovery from knee surgery. Turns out my time was good enough to put me in 2nd place for women and 13th place overall. So happy. Can't wait to go at it again. I highly recommend to all my family and friends to join me next time.

My little helper

Enrique made a big mess while eating his lunch. I pointed it out to him when he was done and jokingly told him that he had to clean it up. I turned to wash the dishes and next thing I know he had a napkin in one hand and the broom in the other trying to clean up his mess. He made an even bigger mess by pushing his lunch all over the rest of the kitchen, buy hey I gotta give it up to my boy for trying.

COOL CAT

Enrique looked so cute this weekend, I had to take a couple quick pictures of him before he left to grandmas with his dad. In the first picture, he is on his Uncle Danny's bike "vroom vroom"

JUST US GIRLS

Camile invited us over to her new house for dinner, drinks, and a movie Saturday night. The food was awesome and our kids got along great. I can sum up the rest of the night in just two words.... MAMA MIA!!!! For those of you who don't get it, you probably never will.

New Blogger

Whoo hoo! I am finally all set up! I am officially a blogger now thanks to one of my co-workers (thanks Steph). People who know me well are going to be pretty shocked to know that I have a blog. I have always been against things like this, especially My Spaces (Yuck!), but have recently felt the need to do something "drastic" to keep family and friends updated. I just haven't had the time to do it the 'old fashioned way' (you know...frequent visits and phone calls). Plus, like most proud mothers, I welcome the chance to brag about my baby and keep everyone updated on all his quirks and achievements. I have so many things going on that I have decided not to overwhelm readers with everything all at once. I will start off with the most important which is always the health and well being of the family. I am blessed to report that, although everyone has their problems, we are all healthy and keeping our heads held high.
