Friday night we had the end of VBS program. Mackenzie did so good and hasn't stopped singing her song since! Here is a great picture of her and Mason. They are going to have so much fun going to school together this fall.

Saturday morning came quickly. Cailtyn and I headed out early for downtown. I had no idea what to expect. We got down there and walked around to the booths for a while, then it was time to line up for the race. It wasn't so much a race than just a mob of people moving down the street together. It was crazy once we started because we couldn't see the start or end of the runners/walkers. The whole street as far as you could see was covered in people. I admit that I teared up while I was running. To see all of these people, and to think of how lucky and thankful I am that i haven't been more affected by breast cancer. So many people had signs on that they were running in memory of and then there were so many pink shirts (meaning survivor). It was very inspiring to see the magnitude of support and love that is out there. There were like 63,000 people down there! It wasn't hard at all traveling down there and back - we took the metrolink. I plan on going down again next year, so hopefully next year some more of you will join me.

We got home and did grocery shopping then by the time we were done with that it was time to get ready to go over to Aaron's friend's for a BBQ. Our wonderful neighbors watched Austin for us, and the neighbor boy came over to watch Mackenzie and Turner. So Caitlyn got to go with us. We had a good time, maybe a little too much to drink, but a great time! Aaron said that Caitlyn reminded him of someone else he knew a couple years ago......hmm wonder who that could be! lol We were home and in bed by 10 - that is the funny thing!

Sunday we got up and had to go down to Columbia. We met up with my bro and his family, my dad and grandma for lunch. Then went to this great place in Columbia where there is a lake and then a kids pool area. There we caught up with my mom, Steve, and my other sisters. We were there for about 4-5 hours, and had a great time. SOOO much fun - everyone loved it. We will sure miss you when you are in Texas, Bro.

Today I'm tired. Austin was up at midnight and 5:30 last night. He has been spitting up a lot and crying like his stomach hurts, so I'm tempted to take him to the doctor. I don't know how to explain it, other than just that mommy feeling that something just isn't quite right.

Tonight I need to stop and workout on my way home, I've been neglecting that lately. Need to get back in to routine of going to the gym. Tomorrow I'll be home with the kids because my babysitter is taking off to attend a funeral. Maybe I'll be able to sneak in another workout and nap then!

  1. I hope Austin feels better. Sean has been doing a lot of puking himself lately, and when he drinks his bottle, he seems very aggravated by it. Not sure what his deal is, other than maybe teething..... I am glad to be home, missed you while I was gone. Lets set up something for Friday. You tell me where and I will be there!

I would always love some comments to know who is out there!
