It's Been A Great Week So Far

So... Monday was such a great day! Even though the weather was terrible! I watched my little friend Olivia Monday morning and she was too precious. I picked Sam up from school and took him to little Maria's house for a little while. When I was talking to his mom on the phone in walks Sam all dressed up followed by Maria. I was laughing b/c they were so stinking cute!



Sam went home not long after and it was just Maria and I. I had gum in my mouth which turned into an afternoon of me blowing bubbles and her trying to pop them. It was pretty funny .... until she slapped me in the face. : ).




That night I went home and had the pleasure of having the sister missionaries over to visit with me. I had the best discussion with them about the the plan of salvation, book of mormon, missionary work, faith, etc. They truely are amazing and left me wanting to do better in so many aspects of my life. I wish I would have gotten to know them sooner.

After the sisters left Rachel and I were off for a run! I was so glad it stopped raining and that we were able to go. We only did a little over 3.5 miles but it was late and it was better then nothing. I love crawling into bed at night knowing I got my run in!



Today started off just as great! I had Olivia (16 months) again this morning and we went to her music class that is extremely cheesy but she loves it and dances all over the place. We went to lunch at Chipotle and ran a few errands. She is the funniest little girl and has been in the best mood the last couple days... making my day "wonderful". Took a great nap which is always ideal. We headed over to play with Maria around 3 pm and Olivia got picked up by her mama not long after that. Leaving me to play with Maria and we headed to the park to enjoy the beautiful afternoon. A great low key day!

Rachel thought today was Baskin Robbins $.31 a scoop day. So we had planned on a run ending up there. Megan txt me tonight saying it was tomorrow night. So...I txt her back saying, " Rachel is Dead". Then a while later I get a txt from her saying it's Ben and Jerry's " free ice cream cone day". So... we planned to go there instead. Rachel called me on my way home to tell me that Megan took my first txt literally and thought Rachel was dead. So I get home and Megan proceeds to tell me she really thought Rachel was dead. Rachel and I were laughing hysterically b/c who would actually believe a txt that says someone died???? Only our sweet little innocent, gullable, lovable Megan! So .... the free ice cream ended at 8 and it was 7pm so the girls wanted to drive. I told them no way we had to run.... knowing we would be cutting it very close. So we headed out on a 5+ mile run to Old Town to Ben and Jerry's. Maybe a little farther then they wanted to go but hey they survived. So the best part is we get to the place and as i walk up he says....sorry ma'am their the last in line. It was 7: 54pm. He said they wouldn't let anyone else in line b/c they closed at 8pm and the line was already too long. We told him we just ran a long ways for this ice cream and of course he didn't care. So he gave us coupons for a free ice cream cone any other time. We were so mad. Horrible Luck I might say. So we walked about 20 minutes to the King Street Metro and metroed home. Ate a healthy dinner and watched American Idol.



Here we are with our "prized" free ice cream cone coupons! : )
