Monday September 16

Well, electrical stuff kept us from getting much done on the stairs today.

Bummer.

These wires are just crazy...

He is figuring it out though.

*****

After school, Porter and Elsie spent about 2 hours hanging out together.

I went to check on them a few times, just to make sure things were good.

It was pretty cute.

They spent most of the time hanging out in Porters room.

So cute!

Cassi and Madi had a talk the other night and they decided they wanted to start running together after school, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

We will see how long it lasts, but they sure had fun today.

It might become Tuesdays and Thursdays.....cause really Wednesdays and Fridays are busy days.....

I will have to remind them of that :)

Like I said, they had fun.

Cass really has great running form.

And Madi tracked herself as she sprinted home and she reached 13 mph.....not a 13 minute mile....that is a 4.6 minute mile.

Girls got speed!

Makes me proud that they wanted to do it on their own.

Madi got home and she said how she felt exhausted, but so good!

She has been feeling a lot of stress, and without cross country, she hasn't had much of an outlet.

So we have had some major attitude.

Not today.

It was wonderful today.

Madi and Cassi planned a FHE together about the Iron rod.

They did a great job and it was really fun.

And just before we got to bed, we had some gun safety practice too.

They are all great shooters too.

We shot up a bunch of our overgrown squash and watermelons that somehow mixed with squash....not yummy :(

It was a fun night.

Everyone went to sleep right away, they were all exhausted.

That means it was a great day, right :)

*****

I started a new Wellness Challenge today.

I am not heading it up....but I am sure excited to get back on track again.

It was a good first day :)
