School Carnival

Kate and Brody's school put on a small Spring carnival for the kids and they both had a blast. They had a petting zoo, pony rides, bouncy castle, face painting, crafts, a clown and a magic show. Kate wasn't to sure about the clown who was making balloon animals. She hid behind my back the entire time and wouldn't talk to her, Brody on the other hand didn't have a problem with her. Kate loved the pony ride and Brody wanted nothing to do with it at first but eventually got on. The weather was absolutely beautiful and perfect for the carnival.

Anniversary

Justin and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary on March 12th. We decided to take a little trip and go to Vegas. We spent three days eating, drinking, gambling, shopping(ok, I was shopping), seeing shows and having a great time. It was nice to spend time together, just the two of us. For Justin's gift, I got him flying lessons, something that I really didn't want to get him but something he has always wanted to do. Hopefully, he hates it :)

1/2 Marathon

I ran my second 1/2 marathon this past Saturday in The Woodlands. The course was great, flat with no hills. My only goal was to be under 2 hours and I accomplished it by running it in 1:58. My exact words every time I finish are "That was stupid, I'm not doing that again". Only to say a couple hours later "I wonder if I can be faster next time", which makes me start thinking how I can improve my time. I give all the credit to my neighbor who ran with me, without him, I doubt I would have made it under two hours. Justin and the kids came to cheer me on, Kate was upset because she didn't see me when I ran past her. I wanted to get a family picture but Brody wasn't having it and Kate wouldn't take a good picture.
