Corbins 7th Bday

Corbin or better known as "Scooty" turned 7.  I still can not believe he is so old.  Of course dad make the cake requested by Corbin....Bowser and Mario Kart


He woke up to presents 

Corbin and Aidan

That day i helped out in his classroom and then I took him out to lunch. He requested Buffalo Wild Wings.

 with a lemonade

They gave him a free piece of cake for his bday that was as big as his head.

That night we had cake and ice cream as a family


Corbin Student of the Month

Corbin has been doing really well in 1st grade.  He loves school and he loves his teacher.  I was pleasantly surprised when he got Student of the Month for October.  They celebrated his accomplishment in November with pancakes with the principal.  He loved it.


I am so proud of him and the young man he is becoming!

Ragnar 2016

It's my 5th Ragnar and it is honestly one of my favorite races.  I know it sounds crazy when you explain it...running 16 1/2 miles, driving around for over 24 hours, sleeping on a hard gym floor for 2 hours...but you get 24 hours of uninterrupted friend time, eat snacks, laugh and get to act like a little girl.  It was a little different this year since I was in a different van but it was non the less fun.  My van buddies were Michelle, Mindy, Aubrey, Tiffany, and Christina.

At the beginning of the race....before the fun began!

Aubrey about to begin our first leg...

We of course stopped to play on the playground....

Mindy's botty sweat

Waiting for Michelle to run to us so we could scare her...

Eating at Cheesecake Factory in between legs

Getting ready for my night run....

7.5 miles at 2 am...this view made it worth it

Waiting at the wrong exchange....but we had out photo shoot with our van.  Out van name was #escapingthe30 because between the 6 of us we have 30 kids.  We bought 30 rag dolls and had them roped the all over the car...

Another one in the bag....can't wait until next year!!!
