my first 5k

I DID IT!

I completed an item from my "bucket" list.

I ran a 5K.

I've been "training" for awhile & counting down the days to the big race.

My wonderful friend Sam met me in Bismarck & ran with me!

This is pre-race, I was a little excited/nervous etc.

 And POST race! 

We were so cheesed we finished!

 SHOCKED by our times!

I completed my 5k in 31.03 which was just under 1.5 minutes faster than I'd been running it.

 Then we managed to score a couple free hats! 

SWEET deal

Bus rider

Well it's official.

My "baby" is riding the bus.

He loves it!

He wanted me to take a picture as they drove away!

Hazen Harvest Fest

I took the kids to the Hazen Harvest Festival.

We met up with some friends & took in the parade, then headed down to the inflatables.

The boys had a ball jumping & going through the mazes.

 It was toasty hot out & the firemen had a gigantic slip-n-slide set up, complete with bubbles.

 They had a ball.

 Get'n all suds'd up (saved me time at bathtime later) HA

 It was the perfect way to cool down!

TROUBLE

Prestyn was in trouble, so he went to "sit & face the wall"

Sidney joined right in, guess she's practicing for when it's actually her turn!?!?

Nana came!!

We were so excited Nana came to watch Soccer.

Sidney was so glad to see her she did NOT want to stay in the stroller.

 The coach was keeping the kids in line for awhile! LOL

 I think he likes his job!!

Thanks for coming to watch Cayden & Beau do soccer. 

HI!

This if for the grandparents!! 

Hope it makes your day!!

the bus.

Cayden rode the bus home from school today.

The deal has been once he can tie his shoes, he can ride the bus.

So today was the day.

We'll see how we do in the am, when he has to get outta her 25 minutes earlier.

But he's excited & did great.
