Fun with Friends

by nathan

Ethan woke early this morning full of excitement because his friend, Zachary, was going to be coming over. We had to remind him many times that it wasn’t time for him to come over yet. Audrey was also very excited!

We went to church this morning, got home and had lunch, settled the kids on the couch to rest and then I went in our room and took a nap.  I love Sunday afternoon naps. Who am I kidding? I love naps anytime. I just don’t have the opportunity to take one as often as I would like and sometimes the timing is off and I end up more tired than when I started. I digress. . .

Anyway, after nap/rest time, we finished getting the things we needed for supper for when our guests were here. Then, at about 3:30 our guests arrived, Zachary brought his parents, Ray and Dawn. There was Wii sword fighting, playing with the kitchen set, pushing around the Pooh walker and the other walker that Isaac plays with, playing the piano, picnic food for supper, and then a post-supper trek to the park. The boys had so much energy. It was fun to see them play together.

In other news, the cooler weather this morning made my 6 mile run this morning awesome! I had put off my long run from yesterday to today because I had seen that today was supposed to be nicer and I’m glad I waited. I was able to run 50 seconds a mile faster than the last time I ran six miles (not doing speed work) and my average heart rate was exactly the same. That means that I shaved 5 minutes off my total time and I didn’t work any harder. That made me very happy!

    Ah, cooler weather! It really does make a difference when you don’t have to struggle just to breathe!
