Blissful Day

 
Blissful.  That is what my Mother's Day was...blissful!
The kids spent the night at my brother and sister-in-laws house, so Rod and I could spend some time together, sleep in and basically get all the things done that we can't with Liam running around!  :)
 
The first was getting the pond up and running: CHECK
 


The second was helping Rod build two raised vegetable beds for our garden. (I use help loosely, since all I did was hold wood)  ha ha


 
 
I have all THESE guys waiting to plant...running out of space in the house.  Maybe there will be a greenhouse in my future for next year (it sure would be helpful).
 

 
We picked the kiddos up on Saturday, enjoyed the beautiful weather and family on Sunday (even though Rod was still finishing up the raised beds. 
I will post more pictures of the raised beds when the second one is complete.  I've since planted in the first one, and made the path between them (thick layer of cardboard, covered with straw and then mulch).  They. Are. A-Mazing!
 
Speaking of A-Mazing:
This was pretty much my Mother's Day.

Feeling loved, blessed and HAPPY!

Run Baby Run

The post title actually sounds great...almost as if I've been consistent with my running. That, however, is not the case. This weather, among other things, has me down! For those of you NOT in Nebraska, it snowed earlier this week and has just been plain COLD!  This weekend is suppose to be better.  Thank Goodness!  We could all use a lil sunshine!


Here are some pictures from the runs I did over the past month!
 
Totally Rad 80's 5K
(which ended up not being a full 5K, race organizer FAIL)
It was LOADS of fun though!
 
Leprechaun Chase 10K  Woo Hoo
(Hilly of road course... it was good in the ouch kind of way)
