8.6 miles in the canyon, and we stopped every .3 miles to check in on our friends racing Boston. I’m pretty sure Boston took up 95% of my thoughts yesterday.
I spy a new pump track going in:
Back and chest day on the CGX app.
I got Beck out of school a few minutes early and surprised him with some tickets to the Mario Movie. My goal this week is to take each kid on a one-on-one date. I always make the kids share things when we go out to things, so to have his own slushee and popcorn felt like a very big deal for him;)
We had the entire theater to ourselves, and he still sat on my lap the entire time. It was the best.
Knox wanted a buzz cut and cheetah print hair… Curly delivered. She also did it for his best friends!
The finished product:
Let’s get into the tangents for the day:
*Emilee ran a course record by 5 minutes @ 41! She is something else. I am blown away by my friends.
*My kids were very confused why school wasn’t canceled for them to be able to watch the entire Boston Marathon.
*It was SO fun to see our friend Kodi in the front for the first 18 miles. Skye kept saying, “Kodi’s still winning the race right now!” Kodi had a 5-minute PR and finished in 2:24.
*We decided to make pancake tacos the other day. They were delicious. Nutella or Biscoff was the base of each of them. So good BUT they were so sweet that we…
*Had to make and eat a salad afterward because we were on a sugar high that needed taming.
*My niece taught me that if you have any leaves touching the water in your vase, it kills your flowers faster. These flowers are lasting forever with this new trick!
*It’s frozen grapes snacking season.
*My parents just got back from the most magical trip to England… My mom has wanted to go there for years (decades!). She is writing a full recap of their tip for the blog. I’m going to miss all of the stunning photos she sent while knowing she was living out her dream.
*We wanted burgers, didn’t have buns, I didn’t want to go to the store, and so I decided to make my own. We will NEVER eat any other buns than these now. They elevated the burger so much. They were very easy to make, too.
