We Did It!

I’m not sure if it’s Dora the Explorer or some other cartoon that sings the “We Did It!” song but it’s stuck in my head.  I have had a lot of “we did it” moments in my head today.
 
We some what organized my son’s toys in our shared living room/playroom area.
 
My son tried out his new sneakers on they playground today!
 
My cousin arrived this afternoon for some QT with the fam.  I had already been to a near by Walmart which I love and I’m firing the other Walmart down the road.  This closer Walmart has a WAY, WAY bigger craft and hardware section with lots of great low priced fabrics.  I just bought some spray paint.  So when the cuzzy arrived, she was child escape route spotter from our little patio whilst I nixed the sanding and prepping and just started spraying the dresser.  We had a little joking and tee-heeing about how our husbands would still be prepping as I finished with my first can of spray paint (probably why they do a way better job).

Over all I am very happy with the results.  Just need to haul all of my furniture to the back yard and paint it.  But we did it!  Go us!  I couldn’t have done it without Rye!

okay, okay, the dripping is not good but fixable!  Sorry, I need to take a picture of the finished product.  I was in a rush to get things cleaned up (the black lawn) before my husband got home.  Ha-ha.

And the biggest news yet:  We ran 3 very hilly miles tonight!  Count them: 1, 2, 3!  In 40 minutes which is a great pace for us considering the level of incline and we haven’t done 3 miles straight since we started!  Go Bethany and Rachael!  We did it!

Oh, I am very jealous of your running skills! Running 3 miles is hard... and running hills is HARD! Good for you!
