Ten on Tuesdays

My sister has started posting 10 things from the past week on her blog and I thought it was a great idea for me to keep a journal of sorts of things that have happened in our life over the past week. So - here is goes. Next week I hope to have pictures to go along with my post.

1. Wednesdays are the best day of the week for me. It is the day that Bryant and I get to spend together and it is our Date day. With him working every weekend night - I will take anytime that I get with him. This week we went to a new place for lunch - Senor Taco - yummy.

2. Sunday Afternoon - the kids and I had a great Sunday afternoon. With all of my meetings done by 2pm. I got home and we made sugar cookies and Rice Krispy treats followed by Toy Story 1 and 2. I love spending time with my kids and love the fact that they still want to spend time with me.

3. Maya and her singing. Anyone who knows Maya - knows that she loves to sing. Lately she has been singing Christmas songs which I love and are driving her brother and sister crazy.

4. Weekend weather - this past weekend the weather has been amazing. I sat on our hammock and read a book and relaxed while enjoying the awesome weather.

5. Running - my first list would not be complete without a running entry. I am training for the Del Sol Ragnar which is February 25 & 26. This past weekend I ran my 3 legs withint 24 hours - just like on the race. It felt great on Friday to run 2 times and even though Saturday went a little slower, I still loved being out there.

6. Visitor - this week Bryant's sister Joy was in town and it was great to see her and spend time with her. The kids loved swimming at the hotel pool which got them excited for the summer.

7. Summer Activites - it may be February but we just signed up for one of our favorite summertime activities - Summer Movie Series at Harkins. They show 10 movies for 7$ and we love going to all of them! Most of them are ones that we have seen, but who doesn't love going to the movies, eating popcorn and having a soda!

8. Bryant - he surprised the kids and I on Valentines Day with a box of chocolate for each of us and a card. He spoils us rotten and we really miss him while he is at work.

9. Brock - my nephew is going to be going on a mission once he has lost 20 pounds. As a whole family, everytime we exercise we send him a text. I love hearing my kids remind me to text Brock after we have done some exercise and also to hear them pray for him to be able to go on a mission. Brock is an amazing example to my kids even though he is in Hawaii! We love you Brock!!!

10. Last Night - instead of a traditional FHE - the kids and I went for a walk. While we walked, we talked about whatever they wanted to. It was great for each one of them to share what they were thinking. Maya continually amazes me as to what is going on inside her head, Madison is caring person who wants to help the littlest bug be safe and Max loves doing things. I love being able to spend time with them where they are the ones who do the talking and I get to do the listening!
