Me: "What color is your horse?"

Him: "um...milk!"

RUN. DRIVE. SLEEP? REPEAT.

I have officially been assigned to a "leg" of the race. Out of 12 runners, 6 per vehicle, I am runner #4 and Robert is runner #1. I will be running the following "legs" of the race:

my first run will be 5.1 miles

my second run 6ish hours later will be 4.2 miles

and my last run 6ish hours later will be 3.8 miles.

Last week I reached a HUGE goal of mine and ran 5 stinkin' miles without stopping in under 1 hour...YEAH ME!!!

Now that I have my distance down, I need to work on multiple runs in 1 day. And, my last run is a steep down hill the whole time, so I will need to start training down hill...oh my poor knees are going to thank me for this.

I'm actually enjoying the running. I mix it up and go by myself, with my family, and with friends. A HUGE thank you to the inventors of the IPOD. It saves my life!

And...I'm working on getting me a shirt made for my race day...tune in later to see it:)

Payton! Payton! We shout with glee!

He just had a birthday, and now he is 3!

He got a jeep bike, monster truck, and some new underwear.

He had a birthday party with his cousins, and played hide-n-seek everywhere.

He was spoiled with playdough, a scooter, and a Lightening McQueen bed.

He got several new "spring" outfits, one blue, one green, and one red.

He said he wanted a football cake, I guess he must be a boy.

Did I mention his favorite present was a buzz and it's an ity bity tiny toy?

He is a joy in our lives and he is tons of fun.

I am the luckiest mom in the world, because I get to call him SON.

Zack oh Zack, look how cute you be...

Just 18 more months, then YOU will be 3!

baby. animal. days.

Everyone...including us...went to Baby Animal Days to see these cute baby bears...

worth it!

What I didn't expect to see was the most handsome 3 year old bear!
Zack was saying "Hi" to the baby goat!

um...thought this was supposed to be BABY animal days...

they don't look very BABY to me

gross

The baby bunny was probably the only animal P-town dared to touch.

The highlight of P-towns day...

choo choo train ride

Lil Rock Climber

1st attempt at rock climbing:

loved repelling

loved daddy holding him up

loved reaching for the turtle shaped rock

loved doing what his buddies were doing

HATED hanging onto the rocks by himself

Pictures are not the greatest...the lighting was horrid and a handicap was controlling the camera (ME)

Easter at Grandpa and Grandma's

The kids painted Easter eggs while the dads went to priesthood.

The Easter Bunny came!!! Boys got a football, soccer ball, baseballs and bats, movie, kite, and candy.
Easter egg hunt with my cousins and my boys' cousins!

Payton filled his basket in 2 minutes, then he went and traded Zack so he could get more eggs!

MONSTER TRUCK RACING

Every year Grandpa and Grandma Campbell fill 1 BIG Easter egg for each grandchild and it is hidden with the rest of the Easter eggs. This year, they included a monster truck in each grandsons egg. The boys had a blast all day racing their trucks down the driveway!

We also TRIED to listen to conference (unfortunately, all I heard during conference was the screams, laughter, crying, giggling, teasing, fighting, playing, and hollering of the 8 grandkids), grandpa and grandma gave each grandkid a balloon launcher and the kids all had a blast launching balloons all over grandmas house, we enjoyed a great feast after the Easter egg hunt, and we even got to watch a movie while the grandkids were in bed!

Thanks you Easter bunny and Grandpa and Grandma Campbell for making this Easter weekend GREAT!
