The Run


After nine weeks of anticipation and training... WE DID IT! Our four mile Trolley Run was a success! 



Here is our group eating an awesome breakfast after the race... I'm calling us 
"The Officially Unofficial NHCC Running Club" New members always welcome!

The Butler's (thanks for breakfast!)

Jessie and me (How do you look so cute after a race Jess? You kinda suck)

It was such an awesome day! I came home on a post-race high. It felt so good to accomplish a goal, and to add to it, I just finished my first two classes at Avila University! It was a big weekend for me. I was so exited to take this week off, and just sit and be lazy because I had one week off of school, and I just finished my race. The funny thing is, these last few days its just been the opposite. I ran this morning and it felt great! Yesterday I went over to campus and picked out my classes for fall. I just finished these great goals I had set for myself, and now I have new ones already! 

On a total side note... another big goal was completed a few weeks ago... Justice is totally potty trained! He just decided one day and hasn't looked back! YAY!

Easter Weekend


We have had one of the best weeks! Rob's Grandparents (Gram and Pops) came into town the week before Easter and were able stay here while we celebrated Easter. The kids just love them and don't want to leave their sides, and I think Gram and Pops have had a pretty good time with the kids (wink wink). Anyway here are a bunch of pictures of all the fun things we did for Easter...



Justice wanted to do puzzle after puzzle with his Great-Grandpa


Hamming it up as usual!

Notice the yellow die everywhere? Yeah Justice spilled it after the first egg... as I cleaned it up with paper towels, Pops told me to wrap up a few eggs in the soaked towel... and what do you know, we ended up with several yellow eggs!

The little stinker kept closing his eyes... too cute

working so very hard


Getting ready for the egg hunt at church

Seriously, she can't just smile?!?

A little face paint



Petting zoo...

Yeah all of this was at church... they know how to put on a sweet event!



oooo candy



All cute and ready for church


Watching a movie with Pops

Our awesome Easter dinner!!! I was so proud of this... although I could never have done it all without Gram... she is awesome!

On Tuesday Gram and Pops moved their motorhome out of our driveway and up to Smithville Lake. Last night we played in the sun, ate steak, and roasted marshmallows over a fire... I just can't imagine a better week!
