It can be difficult to do life together as a couple when you add in 4 crazy boys, and just the general stress that comes from work and life. We have been trying to make more time to do things together. On Saturday we ran a 10k! Peter has never really taken an interest in running until recently. He started running a few months ago and has been enjoying it. When I realized just how easy running came to him, (a lot of things come pretty easily to him, I'll be honest here), I was intimidated when I thought about running a race with him. He runs a lot faster than I do, and we never had a chance for any practice runs together. Race day dawned. I urged him to run however fast he wanted and not to be held back by my podding pace. But, he stuck with me. I had to run faster than I'm used to running, but it was super fun to make my casual, mental goal of running the race in 60 minutes...we actually finished a little faster than 60 minutes! We didn't get any photos of us post race, but here are our bibs!
The day after the race the sun FINALLY came out and we went to the local apple blossom fun day at the park. I snapped this shot of Peter hanging with baby boy, and fell in love all over again. He truly is my best friend, and I love doing life with him!
