Slacking, Running, and Other Things


I have seriously been slacking on the blog-front this year. And this post is almost 2 weeks late....But here goes!


We just finished up our 5th March for Babies season. It was a whopper of a go-around!

We sold 9 whole boxes of chocolates!
We made $90.00 at our Bake Sale! :(
We raised $1,526.00! :)
We had THE coolest t-shirts ever!
We had 21 walkers!

And.......my dad and I ran our first 5k in 46 minutes!

Dad and I have been training since the first week of January. Honestly, I never thought I would be ready, nor would I finish the race if I started. But I did! My "coach" dad and my good friend Crystal ran along side me, pushing me to keep going when all I wanted to do was walk...which I did do some of that. 

We had an absolute blast!

There was one down side to our walk though....the stomach bug had hit our household the week of the walk and my dear husband woke sick early in the morning the day of the walk. So, he was not there to congratulate us as the finish line; however, he always has next year.

Here are a few pictures from our day:
