Busy Holiday Season!

We had a very busy, yet very fun weekend! Friday was Adam's 31st Birthday! We spent the day hanging out as a family getting things ready around the house for Christmas. The kids and I made a birthday cake for Adam. Chocolate cake with chocolate icing that had a blue smiley face on it because according to the decorator Cooper, blue is daddy's favorite color and a smiley face means your happy :)




Saturday we finished putting the ornaments on the tree and setting out all of the decorations. A little late this year I know, but as much as I love Christmas, the decorating around here is getting a little out of hand in my opinion. I mean I can't compete with all the people that have their houses glowing on Thanksgiving night :)



Christmas has already been so much fun this season just from how the kids are finally starting to take it all in. Cooper is really beginning to grasp the concept that he is going to be getting presents soon. Using the ole', "You better be good or Santa won't come see you!" is the best line ever! Whoever thought up that trick was a genius!! Gracie thinks everything about Christmas is so beautiful. She loves to drive around and look at everyone's Christmas decorations, and she did the absolute sweetest thing ever on Saturday! When the tree was finally complete, she made me, Adam, and Cooper come stand around the Christmas tree, hold hands, and sing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas"! Cheesy, yes, but we thought it was super cute. At least for the first 4-5 times that we did it. She must be practicing for her Christmas play at school we think :)



Saturday night was the PT Solutions Christmas party. It was really a lot of fun! We all gathered at Dale's (one of the executives) house, and just hung out, ate, and drank! It was nice to have some quality time with people that I've worked out with all year long. It is always odd to see my team mates in regular clothes when all you ever see them in is a swim suit, bike shorts, or running gear :)



I wrapped up the weekend with a nice, relaxing run down at the river with my friend Mike! No heart rate monitor. No keeping up with my pace or any of the usual stats. I just ran and tried to take advantage of the fact that it is December 9th and 70 some odd degrees outside. It was beautiful!


Adam and I then took the kids over to a local school parking lot to work with Cooper on riding his bike without training wheels. He was so cute! He's my skeptical one, so a little unsure of course, but he's big into doing things himself, so we're getting there! Gracie is more of a spectator than anything. Hence the picture of her holding up her "support sign" for Cooper. She thought she was at a race :) I think she's the best fan ever!!








Finally, my neighbor Cara was nice enough to watch the kids for a few hours while Adam and I went and did an extremely rare thing... go to the movies! We saw "No Country for Old Men". It was really good. We both liked it a lot. However, Adam and I both tend to dig the "weird" movies. You know, the ones you have to kind of think about a bit. So, it is not a movie I would recommend if you want to get in a laugh. It is definitely intense, but very cool!

So that is what's been going on this weekend. More busy stuff next week of course, but all good! In the meantime if you live in Georgia, enjoy the next few days of some summertime fun!

Until next time!
