Another Outing

Since Matt has been umpiring baseball all week, including tonight, we decided to hit the road and head to Monroe where they have a carousel at the mall. Mom was gracious enough to tag along and help me out. They weren't too sure about it at first...Landry even decided to get back in the stroller:), but once we got on an animal, all was right in the world. They liked it enough to ride it twice in a row. Although she never smiled, Landry was a big girl and held on tight.Here they are first taking it all in...

Jake was thrilled! Talking about and naming all the animals

While Landry walked over and got back in the stroller...their roles were reversed tonight, with Landry not being her normal assertive self.

You can see from what they are wearing that it was 75 + degrees all day. But when we left the mall it was already in the 60's. Of course it is supposed to be freezing all next week and the babies are taking daffodil pictures Wednesday afternoon:(. Hopefully it will warm up enough!

It has been a LONG week with Matt being gone every night to umpire. He is working for 2 different leagues this year and hasn't gotten his schedule straight I suppose. Matt has been umpiring for 10 + years now and mainly does it because he enjoys it AND the cash money is a plus! But whew...I need a break!

In the morning I am doing 20 miles and Ivory has been so gracious to let me do 7(miles), then she is going to meet me at 6:30 and do the remaining 13 with me. If you don't run and have no idea how someone can run this far, let me tell you that a partner makes all the difference in the world! Wouldn't have made it very far without one! So, I am starting out at 5:30 and am off to get some sleep. Have a great weekend!
