Happy Memorial Day to everyone! Hope you all had a fabulous weekend and enjoyed the beautiful weather as much as we did. On Saturday we headed up to Pineland Farms (about half hour from Portland) for the annual trail running festival. I ran the 10k race which was VERY hilly and muddy, but totally fun! I have discovered I prefer racing on trails, so I am going to be looking into more trail running races in our area. My fan club came and cheered me on! It was a fun morning and a perfect one for running. On Saturday afternoon we took Henry to the beach (it was still chilly at this point so notice we are in fleeces!) and had fun playing in the sand and letting Henry explore. He wanted so badly to get into the water so we had to really try hard to hold him back! I think he will enjoy the water this summer! On Sunday we took a nice walk around the neighborhood, went to check on our community garden plot and and ended up at Henry's favorite playground. Sunday afternoon we took a picnic to the park and enjoyed the sunshine, warm temperatures and cool ocean breeze-an absolutely beautiful afternoon! We brought bubbles with us and Henry thought that was pretty neat! He had fun chasing the bubbles as they floated away. Monday morning we all went running (I had to run 8 miles as part of my marathon training) around Back Cove and we were all done by 8 am! We enjoyed bagels and coffee afterwards. Henry and I went to a birthday party for his good pal Madeline yesterday morning where he played so hard he crashed for several hours yesterday afternoon. Yesterday felt more like summer than spring, but hey, we'll take it! Last night I couldn't believe I was setting up the fan in Henry's room and letting him go to sleep in a diaper...wow, I didn't think it would warm up quite that much! All in all, a fabulous Memorial Day weekend and the kick off to summer! We can't wait for more...hope to see some of you soon!
