Togetherness

Soren had Friday off of school so we had an extra day of fun this weekend. Thursday we went up to Nana's, caught the late movie and spent the night (thanks, Pops, for letting us come over even though the house cleaner had just left!) Our main reason for going was to get another bike ride in with Nana, so that is what we did Friday morning after Pops took us all out to breakfast. We had a great ride and even got to drop in on Granny and Granddad for a short visit.

Saturday morning I got up and went to watch some of the events at the Play Tri Festival up in Los Colinas. It was an event that hosted a 5k and 10k run, duathlon, sprint triathlon, kids duathlon, and swim races. Pretty neat. I got to see some of my friends compete while I stayed warm in all of my layers...brrr!

Next we were off to Soren's swim meet. Congratulations to Soren on beating all three of her previous times by over 3 seconds!


Nana showed up with Wyatt and Ashton so it was out to eat and home to play after the meet. When we got back home, Pops and Grandma Freda came to join in the fun, so we called Tami and Thomas to bring Callie to see Grandma while she was here. A full house is more fun.

playing outside evolved into a long-jump competition; tape measure and everything











Callie brought brownies and ice cream; she ate ALL of Grandma Freda's!


don't take my picture while I am trying to eat!

Candids, always lovely


At the end of the night Pops took us to eat (yet again) some Italian food before we all went home and crashed from a fun-filled day.
