Big Weekend...like 4 weekends ago

So, I've been busy not blogging. I'm not busy today. Really not busy. It's 12:30 pm and Franny and I are still in pjs. Holland's the lucky one who is bathed and dressed. I decided since Franny and I are sick, we're allowed to be in pjs until after lunch. That time is rapidly approaching. In the meantime, here is a post of our big weekend: Holland's blessing and the TOU marathon. It was also Franny's and Liz's B-days, but I already posted that.


The Spencer grand kids await the arrival of Melis and Adria in Providence
(My brother in law, Mike, also participated, but he was ahead of the girls)


Here they are! Just 6 more miles to go


Finish line! Amazing!

Adria's rockin blister from the race.




Later that day we blessed Holland at Leah's house




My sweet little angel

Note to self: If someone says "I have a good one of your family", make sure there is a good one on your camera.

Uncle Zach and Aunt Amber
Bless Melissa's, Mike's and Adria's hearts for coming to the blessing. They were hammered from the race. Hammered. They couldn't even get up to get food. They had to be waited on the whole time. They also were emotional wrecks. Not from the blessing. Mike held it together but Adria did not. Note to self: Don't ever run 26 miles consecutively. Ever.


Party people

Here's what else has been going on the last few weeks:

Here's Franny with a bowl of cookie crisp (I did not buy those. Paul bought those.) watching the slide show screen saver. I love when she does this and labels all of the pics as they flash on the screen.

I didn't see this when it happened

or this

Franny took a Kindermusic class. Her first class other than swimming. Super cute.


Holland is still dang cute.



Franny watching Little Einstiens while nursing. TV while nursing? Where did she get that idea?

One day, one Melissa's way to my house, all four kids fell asleep. Success!

Did I mention my kids are cute?

Really.

Wow, that was a big weekend! Love the update! That last picture of Holland is so stinkin' cute! You need to enter it in a contest or something, it would totally win!

I'm with you on not running 26 miles in a row ever. That blister is something else. But good for them! I love blessing babies at someone's house. It seems more special and intimate. And your kids are cute!

That last picture of Holland is so very sweet. My second favorite picture is the one of Franny nursing her baby, that is so, so funny and so, so cute at the same time!

And some people think it is great to do an iron man. or even a half iron man. I dont ever need to do a marathon, but good job to those who do!
