Weekend Wrap-Up

I really can't believe that the weekend is already over! 

It was a pretty low key but honestly that is just how we like it. Friday, was spent just enjoying good quality family time. Kyle was home relatively early (thank you division for the early-ish release) and we decided to go out to dinner. We have a local mexican restaurant that we love and E gets to enjoy all the chips she wants haha. Kyle and I watched a movie and just enjoyed a quiet evening after she went to bed. If y'all haven't seen Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri you need to! It's amazing. 

Saturday, it was just me and E. Kyle was on a jump (yes, jumping out of an airplane for work) so she and I headed to Wilmington to get our race packets for Sunday. It worked out perfectly because there was a Chick-fil-A in the same parking lots and that's her favorite. 

She was a happy camper! It was a fun day out with her and she is always such a go with the flow kiddo, which we truly appreciate.

Kyle finally got home at around 7:30 and he was exhausted. Mostly from sitting in the darn harness for so long. We headed to bed early as we had a bit of a drive Sunday morning for the race.

We were on the road at 6:30am for the Beethoven 15k! It took about an hour and forty minutes to get there but it was such a beautiful area. This race benefited the Wilmington Symphony which I think is pretty amazing. We were nervous about the weather because it had been threatening to rain all morning but we were so thankful that it held off until the last .5 mile! This was our first race of the year and we are so glad it was.

It was a 9.3 mile race which is an odd distance and I really just wanted it to be 10 haha. It was a beautiful partial road and partial paved trail course. There was so much to look at which made it that much better. E did fantastic as usual, waving and thanking the volunteers. 

We crossed the finish line and we were definitely happy with our times. 

We were shocked to see that we both placed 3rd in our age groups.

I was pumped that we got coffee mugs for the age group awards. Finally, something we can actually use.

The rest of the day was spent relaxing and just enjoying the time together. Kyle has a big exercise coming up so he will be MIA for a while. We are soaking up this time together for sure. 

I hope you all had a great weekend!
