Out of Commission....

So I started training for the half marathon that Trish and I are running in August about 2 weeks ago. I was doing really well, then this last Monday at the gym.....more specifically "boot camp"..... as I was running sideways over steps, I sprained my left ankle. SUCKS!! I have never sprained my ankle before, and I am having a really hard time dealing with it. Needless to say, this has cut off my training for a few weeks. I can hardly walk on it without limping, so I don't think I will be running for at least another week.

Keep training Trish.....hopefully I will be able to join you soon.

Mother's Day Weekend

We had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend this year.

My sisters and I started the weekend with our annual Race for the Cure. I am so glad that we have started this tradition as a family....all we need to do is talk our mom into joining us. Tami and Lisa brought their kids (Brecken and Sarah) and walked the race while Trish and I started off our 1/2 marathon training with a bang by running. It was a really beautiful day, and we scored lots of free stuff after the race. Thanks girls! Can't wait until next year.

Lisa (Brecken in stroller), Me, Tami (Sarah in stroller), and Trish. Hot mamas!!

After the race we had dinner at my mom's house. Tami and Jerald made their yummy chili verde, and we had a little Mexican fiesta. It was yummy!! After dinner Tami and Jerald went to the Eagles concert, so Matt and I took Sarah home with us to babysit her for a few hours. She was so cute, and loved following Macy around the house. I had told Matt that he needed to help me with her because I needed to start making my breakfast casserole. Here are a few pictures of Matt 'helping' me babysit. He tried really hard to stay awake. Nice try babe!

Did you notice the mismatching top and bottoms on Sarah? Well, when I was trying to put her jammies on her I was looking through the diaper bag and the shirt that was in there with these pants looked WAY too cute to be pajamas. I figured that she could just stay in the shirt she was wearing because there was no way the other shirt could be jammies. Yeah, when Tami came to get her she told me that the other shirt was her pajama shirt. Silly me!! I remember baby pajamas being trashed and not that cute at all. I am totally not a mommy! :)

Here is Matt trying to get Sarah to lay down. She was tired and really hyper. It was very entertaining!

Here are all 3 of them (Macy included) sleeping on the couch. Macy woke up just for the picture. PS. Matt was asleep way before Sarah was. I am the one that got her to sleep. I think he gave up and just decided to fall asleep himself. I love it!

The next day we had Matt's mom and Boyd (his step dad) over for breakfast on Mother's Day. I made a breakfast strata (fancy name for casserole) and we had a lot of fresh fruit. It was really nice to be able to spend time with both of our moms.

I hope everyone had a nice Mother's Day!!!

Macy Update

MACY DOESN'T HAVE CANCER!!

The vet called to say that the tumor was not cancer, and we got it all. YAY!!! Now I can sleep at night.
