CARDINALS

A few weeks ago the cardinals worked really hard building this nest

in the same tree where three baby cardinals hatched last year.

Mama cardinal took several days to build and test out the nest.

Papa cardinal would periodically stop by to check progress.

Mama and Papa have continued to check the nest periodically,

but there have not been any eggs.

 We will keep you posted!!

TWO FOR ONE

I ran two races at one time!

I was asked by a friend to participate in the Baycare 5K/10K.

I chose the 10K so that I could also complete a virtual run -  

The Sweetheart Run. 

I missed participating in the Sweetheart Run with my running group

due to being out of town.

Here are some of my crazy running buddies.

Our coach's hubby gave roses to all the gals.

I am sorry I missed such a fun event!

 

The morning of the Baycare event was perfect for running!

 I had a PR (personal record) for a 10K and

placed third in my age group - old ladies!!

 Half of my group placed in our appropriate age groups!!

 I was not expecting to run so well, 

but it was a perfect day for running.

Until next time . . . . . . .

 

 

I LOVE GRANDCHILDREN!

The grandchildren are so creative!

This is the welcome sign on the bedroom door where we sleep when visiting them.

Morning playtime - 

at the table and in the bedroom.

Showing off the work gear.

 Solving work problems.

 It is Tea Time!!

 On Saturday we walked to the local park for gymnastics class.

The adults had to stay in the hallway 

so they did not disrupt class.

I managed to take a few pictures of the warm up stretches.

 Quackles Rides Again!

I spent many hours pushing Quackles 

around the house when the kids were young.

He rides again with grandchildren.

Looking forward to seeing this awesome family again!!
