Do you ever feel that way?! I’m guessing if you are a mom (or even just human for that matter), then you have felt that way before. Just treading water, barely keeping the head above water – that’s kind of where I am at. I feel like there is so much going on in life, and it’s only going to get busier! It’s alot of fun stuff, don’t get me wrong, but chaos sometimes sets in. I really enjoyed the sun and warm weather we were teased with though – doesn’t that do so much to boost the moods here in MI?! And now I am looking out at snow again. Oh well – this too shall pass! It has put a little splinter in my 5k training though. I was doing so good on my training schedule and it was because we had somewhat warm weather to get out and walk/run! I don’t have a treadmill, and I’m not going to run in cold/snow, so today I didn’t do my run. Oh well – I will take a day off I guess. I have exercised for 19 days straight, which is really good for me, one day off won’t hurt. I will still have plenty time to build up my endurance for the 5k – I hope! I am so not a runner, so I think I am nuts for thinking about running a “race”, but I think it will feel good for me to say I did it!
My hubby threw me a surprise 30th birthday party last weekend!!! We had a church group skating party last Sat. afternoon from 4-6. At the end of the session my brother-in-law and sister-in-law asked if we wanted to grab dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings (which made sense b/c we were only about 8 min. from there). We said that would be fine, so we packed up the kiddos and skates and headed to the restaurant. When we walked in I had told the hostess lady that I thought our group had already checked in and she said - “oh the Huizenga group – it’s right thru those doors.” At that point I knew what was going on, because the group checking us in wouldn’t have been Huizenga, and I knew the doors she was pointing to were for parties. So she kind of blew it! So when I walked thru the door I gave a look of “you can’t fool me!” It was so fun to see all our friends there though and my girls got a kick out of the whole thing! My parents were there to take the girls home after eating, so that was nice too! Here are a few pictures of the night – we were in a party room that has the Buffalo Bowling – which is fun too and we had the whole room all to ourselves! I have a pretty great hubby and friends and family!
It was a super great night!
I have a few LO’s of course to share too!!!
