A nice and easy 3 in the mid morning heat.  It seems like it is going to be hotter and more humid this week.  Boo hoo.

Another morning run at my mom's.  It was sweaty, but felt better than yesterday.  I ran a little faster too.  Then it was off to the zoo for some zoo "fun" with the kids and the neighbor kid. 

I hate the zoo.

Yesterday I went to visit a dear friend with the kids while my brother and husband celebrated their love for one another and for roller coasters at their annual Great America trip.  It was a pretty fun day for everyone.  The kids and I swam and played all day.  Chuck and Greg enjoyed waiting in huge lines for rides that lasted 1 minute.  Then when we got home we ordered the best pizza ever, Dr. Pizza.  I didn't go running because there was a surprise party going on for one of my mom's neighbors and I chose to hang out there instead.

So I'm back at home for this run.  I ran alone for 3.8 miles in a roundabout way to my sister in law's.  Then the kids ran with me back while Chuck followed behind.  The kids ran the first 1/4 mile, then we all walked for a 1/2 mile, and then we raced the last 1/4 mile home.  I let Caleb win.

I ran before a late dinner.  Stayed in the neighborhood and ran 3.3 by myself.  Then the kids wanted to run with me, so we ran around the block.  Caleb's pants kept falling down, so it was basically me running to the corner with Eli following not too far behind, and then a small wait while Caleb caught up.

Today we spent the whole day cleaning and organizing.  There is nothing like a clean, neat house.

Too bad it will last until approximately 10 tomorrow morning.  I give it about an hour after we come home from church before it is destroyed by our little monkeys...

This run was uneventful.  I went slow and enjoyed the run.
