Just a List

• My yard is a true swamp.  We have pooled up water from fence line to fence line.  YUCK
• Lydia whined and cried for more than half of our family bike ride yesterday.  I hope that isn't an indication of how things will go this summer with her!
• I'm helping to plan my 20th grade school reunion. Our graduating class had approximately 45 students- most of which attended as a core group from 1st to 8th grade. 
• I'm heading up Luke's school fundraiser.  It's hopefully going to be a huge success and will help afford new playground equipment!
• I am helping to plan my cousin-in-law's baby shower.  She lives in California, so it will be our first experience with a "virtual shower".  It should be interesting and will surely be fun!
• I have 7 1/2 weeks until the half marathon.  I completed 5 miles on the treadmill last night (ran 4.75 of it).  I did it at a comfortable and relaxed speed and still finished in the time I had hoped.  PLUS, I'm not sore at all today from it!
• Craig has been casted to play a role in his school's musical.  NO! He's not singing, but he DOES have a speaking part as a policeman.  He's NEVER done anything like this, and I'm loving it!
• Did I ever mention that last year he coached a group of students to play a drum line song in the school talent show, and his group won?!?!!!!
• Luke made the shoe-tying club in his class. He's just one of three students in the club so far!
• Craig made a 3 pointer in a recent staff/student basketball game.
• I learned to crack eggs with one hand.
• Luke is taking drum set lessons from Craig, and both Luke AND Lydia are taking piano lessons from me.
• My quilt did NOT get ruined by the skunk a few weeks ago.  It only took one washing and it was totally fine.
• We've converted to primarily a vegetarian diet (at home).  We're all feeling the benefits and surprisingly, we are loving our new food choices!

Hmmm..... what else?  I'll try to think of more updates.
