"What did you call those?"

"Flutterflies.  I don't know what they are actually called, but they flutter.  That's what I like to call them."

phoenix marathon

 Eric and I ran the 1/2 marathon a couple of weeks ago.

Eric came in 4th in his division.

He killed it!

His average pace was 7:31!!!

I was just super happy to be a finisher!!

track

Robyn is the third hurdler in the video.

I really have a good time watching the athletes at the track meets.

Here is Robyn cleaning up at the end. 

dragon bbq

I enjoyed a nice little picnic at the Dragon BBQ with Thing 1 and Thing 2.

The school was celebrating Dr. Suess all week.

Friday was crazy hair day.  

Mimi and Q decided about 2 minutes before they needed to leave for school to make some t-shirts to wear.

With the limited time to create their shirts, I think they did a pretty good job.

sunrise

Aside from all of the hugs and kisses I get at the bus stop every morning from Mimi and Q, seeing the sunrise is pretty spectacular.

I found this pic on my phone.

I don't know who took it - I know I didn't.

It says a lot about her 'tude these days.

i couldn't find robyn

The other morning I couldn't find Robyn.

Apparently she bedded down on the floor in the family room.

That's one tired girl.

whatcha cooking', robert?

Some delicious soup?

Chili perhaps?

Beans?

Nope.

He's cooking manly man shirts.

Eric and Robert are going on the Boy Scout Mountain Man Rendezvous during spring break.

Just saying mountain man and rendezvous in the same breath makes me laugh.

And Robert dying about 15 shirts in a stock pot makes me laugh even more.
