Family Fitness and Fun Day

Today was the 3rd Annual Katy Stake Family Fitness and Fun Day.  It included a 1 mile family walk and a 5K run and we all had a blast!  Here’s a picture before the event.

I pushed the stroller with Christian and Brian and I walked the 1 mile.  While we were almost the last ones to finish, we had a good time walking a mile together. 

Paul and Aaron ran the 5K.  They trained for a few weeks, running around the block after work/school and enjoyed their time together.  Aaron named their team supercalifragilisticexpiali-runners-minus.  Or something like that!

Here they are running together

and now they cross the finish line with a time of 45:11. 

While they ran, B and C and I enjoyed some of the other Fun Day activities.  Here’s a picture of Brian doing a potato sack race.

Christian was so happy to get to play in a bounce house!

It was a great event and I’m glad our family was able to take part in it.  Hopefully next year when I’m not pregnant I’ll get to run too!

Haircuts

When Aaron was a baby I received advice about how much money I would save if I learned to cut my boys hair.  I was told to practice while they were young and that by the time the kids cared what their hair looked like, I would be good enough at it.  So Paul bought me a set of electric clippers. 

Paul has gotten pretty good at cutting the kids hair so I mostly just let him do it and I vacuum it up and help hold them still. 

We don’t cut their hair nearly often enough, and it typically gets really shaggy before we cut it again (something for us to work on).

We finally got around to cutting their hair yesterday and I can’t believe how different they look with their haircuts!  This was Christian’s first real haircut and he now looks so much more grown up. 

Anyway, without further ado, here are the before and after pictures!
