trot to adopt

this weekend our whole family participated in a little 5k/mile run to raise funds for several families in the city who are in the adoption process. it was so much fun to be a part of such a rallying event and it was a beautiful day. props to my man who ran the mile with ALL THREE kiddos so i could do the 5k. don't deserve him, but i'm thankful. here he is earlier this week: can you see him in the dust of the floors we are refinishing?



must've been early on because they only ran about 1/8th of a mile...


superman y'all

i just love how miles' pup is barely hanging on

thanks babe for letting me do this; running in the woods is one of life's joys.  to my minimalist friends, i think i'm heel-striking in this picture...

we are just working on the kids room upstairs right now. the downstairs has been refinished in recent years (though won't be long before they need it again), but the upstairs is carpeted and the heart pine underneath was painted white! it is a big job, so one room at a time...
