is finnished. I did NOT RUN my miles on Saturday. it was so windy and cold and I knew that i was going to be in the hot pool everyday. so I decided that I would just coach….t hat would be my cross train for the day. : ) and this morning I was out the door before 6am… ran 13.7 miles. : ) in 2:28.52! Rather slow if you ask me. but that is only because I know that if I am chasing someone I can go faster. : ) I proved that last weekend. : )

So it was a great training run for me … I stayed in my normal time range… and I came back in one piece. that is all that matters. so this week my m iles ended up being a little different.

miles 178 +3 out of 435 in 9 weeks

I am pleased to tell you that my KIDS ROCKED THE SWIM MEET!!!!!!!!

they both SMASHED thier times. I mean SMASHED them. D~fly took off anywere form 5-12 seconds per race. and that is BIG FOR HIM!!!! He got out on his 100 free. “COACH… they messed up… THERE IS NO WAY I swam that in 1:24. I laughed so so so hard and said… yeah you DID! and we are both so proud of you!

My T~ fly tried a lot of NEW things… 100 back 200 IM 200 FREE..s o those were all NT. But the 50 free he broke his time in by a little over a second. and that is amazing! just so you know. He is now about 1 second away from beating his mother in her FASTEST 50 free sprint EVER!…..

well ont his happy most wonderful note… I need to get into the pool. these kids are catching me fast. Than again. NAP FIRST …t han pool!

so there has been alot going on around here…. so much so that i haven’t realy been writing much… there is of course all the knitting…. But what about all the kid fun…….. Right? RIGHT. so here it goes…. we have a new puppy in the house… my Boss almost hit him on his wayt o work. thought it was a bunny than found it WASN’T. He was so happy he stopped when he found this…

sitting in the middle of the road. a little Beagle puppy. and rightfully so we named him snoopy. No one came forward on this little darling and after 2 weeks…. he now has a place to call home. but that MEANS POTTY TRAINING! yeah me….

while the kids were outside playing with hima nd walking him around over spring break…. my daughter came in with this AMAZING creation…..

Yes, that is a pop can….. a root bear pop can… I have NO IDEA were she found it. she just said outside… when asked what it was….. “It is a snake… see here its head is comign out of the can and LOOK MOMMA,

It ONLY has ONE EYE just like daddy……”

okay now if that doesn’t make you spit pop on your key board… I DON’T know what will. Hubby and I laughed for hours after that everytime we looked at it… did I save it you ask…. WELL OF COURSE!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to tell her about it again when she is older and has forgotten about the one eyed snake. : )
