T.G.I.M.

I know it's usually T.G.I.F. but today I am thankful that it is Monday and we got through the busy weekend.  Now I get a little time to reorganize my thoughts and see what's happening this week!

First things first.  Here are some cute pictures of my little helper making cookies last Thursday.  He really wanted to try and do it all by himself, like in the "Froggy Bakes a Cake" book, but I helped out a little.  




Next, this weekend we filled our time up by going to the Street Art Festival on Saturday and returning on Sunday to see the finished products.  Once again, Kevin was fascinated by how they do it and wants to go buy some more chalk to draw on our driveway like last year.  He's started a few art projects of his own recently and I will have to get them posted soon to share with you all.

And lastly, I am continuing my running and this past Saturday I ran about 19 miles.....I thought it was 20, but after measuring it again, it was closer to 19.  Close enough, right?  I have 5 weeks left before the Santa Clarita Marathon and am actually feeling pretty good about it.  So let's hope nothing out of the ordinary happens between now and then!

Teach 'em how to cook now, and their future wives will thank you! He looks like he's doing a good job, besides looking awfully handsome!

See you soon.
Love, Mom

Yummy cookies! They're my downfall!! :) ... And WOW! on the 19 miles! I am so excited for you! How long does it take?

it took about 3 1/2 hrs, which was faster than I thought it would take. And yes, I think the cookie dough helped me go faster!
