The Weekend!

Remember the days when you did absolutely nothing on the weekends. What happened??

Friday -- Went to add songs to my Ipod Shuffle for my 5k -- and wouldn't you know it -- my Ipod died. I had to borrow - Melinda's PINK nano. Thankfully I was able to hide it under my shirt on race day...

Saturday - Went over to the Children's Hospital to run in the American Family 5k. This is my second 5k. Again my goals were simple -- to show up and to not finish last. Apparently I need to add a third goal -- do not let MOM's pushing strollers beat me in 5k. (see pic above)
As for the race -- very well done! Plenty of activities for the kids, a live band, plenty of food - they really made it a good time for the whole family. Well Done!

After the race - we came home I blew the leaves off the lawn and fertilized - we finally have grass - now we just need some rain. Later we headed over to the Chesterfield berry farm to get some more pumpkins.

Sunday - Melinda got up at 6:30am so she could run 16 miles before Church. Again 16 miles that is crazy!! Made it to church -- Church was great!!! -- we recently have been visiting other churches in the area -- I'm glad we did that and I am Glad to be back at TCC. After Church we went to Sundays and Matthew and I went Kayaking while Melinda and Adam played in the park. Ending our day at Radio Shack to purchase another Ipod with warranty.
Sunday Night -- Evan Almighty -- FUNNY!!!

Probably was just fabulous weather for the 5k too!

What's TCC?

I wondered how Evan Almight was... still probably will wait to rent it though.

TCC website

and Evan Almighty is now available for rent. It's been a long time since all 4 of us went to the movies. Family of 4 spends something like $60 at the movies. Unless you go to the Byrd.

Huh... never heard of the TCC! I just might have to mention it to a friend church-shopping in the area.

Looking through the site makes me only more deeply realize I really have no clue about the differences between denominations of Christian churches but also types, e.g. charismatic, "emerging", etc.

I know this friend would - maybe a topic for our next get-together :)
