This last week was a total blur. I have a lot of stuff going on at work. We are preparing for our annual Bull Run which is a 1/2 marathon, 10K, and 5K in July. On Friday, a co-worker and myself drove the routes again to make sure of the mileage and if there are any problems, that took forever! But I think we are good to go now. There use to be two event directors for the Bull Run and now there's only one. So, being the nice person I am... I like to help her out. I have learned a lot about event planning which everyone can always get better at. (Megan, how is my grammar on that one! That sounds weird, but whatev.)
In other news, I decided to run a 1/2 marathon in September. Actually, its on Brad's birthday. Brad and I decided that I needed a goal and that was the perfect one. It is in Sioux Falls. I think that it has definitely motivated me to exercise and get going! I am also in Bootcamp which started last week. Its two days a week and it offically kicked my butt :) I forget how good it feels to workout. I should have listened to Brad a long time ago! (I really hate to admit that).
Gannon is busy being Gannon. We got an exersaucer (sp?) for Gannon on Friday, I was driving by a garage sale in our neighborhood and I saw one. I only had four dollars on me and the lady doing the sale said that it was good enough. She really wanted all of her stuff to go to young families for a good price. So, I brought it home, cleaned it up, and he loves it! He is getting bored with playing on the ground. And for us, its easier when he isn't rolling in the 6 foot radius around where we originally placed him :) We don't plan to use it too much, we weren't even going to spend the money to buy one but this was a good deal. Also, a lady that we work with is going to give us her highchair which is A-MAZ-ING! She no longer has grandkids that will need it. You know us, all about saving money!
Bradley played softball on Monday and Thursday. I am not even sure how they did. How horrible is that! I can't keep up with it anymore. We are really getting into watching TV series on Netflix. Our current favorite is Prison Break. But, we are coming down to the end of that series, all 80 episodes. Gotta find something else we can watch. Any suggestions? By the way, I totally think everyone should get Netflix, there is no need for cable after that! Actually, we do need cable so we can see LeBron James lose tonight. Ha.
The craftier side of me is starting to come out again. We have a couple of weddings, birthdays, and parties to go to this summer so I decided to get creative and make some things instead of buy them. But I love the things I made so much I might have to keep them. They look like this...
Which turned into ....
If you haven't figured it out yet, they are picture holders made out of paper binders. I love them and I think that I am going to invest in some more ideas and maybe sell them :) They are easy to make and I like to think I am pretty creative. We will see what come out of it.
But again, I hope that I can post sooner rather than later but no promises.
Oh, and I am trying to figure out why the comments don't work. I read on the internet that there are a lot of people having the same problem.
