The Barnes Family

Our sweet, handsome boy turned 4. I honestly do not know where the time has gone. I blinked and he was blowing out 4 candles instead of 1! I love parties, but I think that this may have been the last year to actually plan the party and keep it small, so we did just that! A family bowling party with only two of his close friends, the ones he tends to see the most. Maggie and Carter joined us for an exciting game of push the ball toward the pins and eat lots of yummy chocolate cake. My children both love bowling. They must get that from their Uncles! It was a wonderful, low key get together and he had a blast! He then got to celebrate his birthday at school with cookies, at the lake with mimi and at Nana's house...oh to be 4!

I am not sure if I have any readers left, but I'm back anyway! At the moment, I am doing something I NEVER do, staying awake while on a 4 hour airplane ride! I'm pretty amazed at myself right now considering I didn't go to bed until 11:30 and got up at 5:15. Since I have all this free time on my hand, I wanted to get back in the blogging game. You might be wondering where I am headed........ SEAWHEEZE!!!! Yep, another half marathon with my favorite runners, my mom, my aunt and a good friend from Utah. I am beyond excited. This was my birthday present back in January and I have been a mad lady training for the past few months! I have always been a slow runner but I am really hoping to see some improvement this time and do it in 3 hours. Please say a prayer for me! What is SeaWheeze: Well I've
