Getting that run in everyday even on swim days. Outdoor swimming is coming to a close but a few more left. It's so dark in the morning when we hop in at 6am.
Football cutie!
More runs.
Because of the stupid bats, Oakley had to get a rabies booster. We saw his photo in the lobby calendar:
Girls had connect day at school, school pictures done. Isaac had a meet the team for 9th grade High School Football.
Starting to realize old homes are just not for us anymore. Their layouts don't fit our need, we are tired of fixing things up or having things go wrong... and for the price it's just not worth it. So we started to explore the idea of the numerous new builds in the neighborhood. Edina has a culture for tear downs. It is such a highly sought after area given the great schools and close proximity to the city without being IN the city that when an old small house comes available there is a number of builders that will buy it, buy a 'spec home' they call it and sell it. The layouts in these new homes are exactly what we need, more so than they were 4 years ago when we looked. Wanting 5 bedrooms but also two offices and a room for working out. It HAS all that, and two living spaces, a generous mud room, 3 car garage and the amazing thing about THIS house is it backs up to a park so no one will be living directly behind us. SOLD! Actually we are, spoiler alert this is our house! We move in March 1st. We just didn't know that for a few more days from when I took this photo.
Thursday swim
Friday run with Jana
I think I mentioned our Ragnar relay was cancelled due to poor new ownership that has been owing money to venues the past probably 2 years. So instead three of us from that group decided to relay an international triathlon. That's a mile swim, 23 mile bike, and a 10K run. The day finally arrived.
I have done the spring Maple Grove Tri numerous times, but never the full swim. Last year I was a swim angel and ended up swimming all three lengths and knew I could handle the one mile. It was SO much fun!
While I swam: Chelsie and Alicia hung out, then Alicia went out on the bike and for that 1.5 hours Chelsie and I hung out.
Then Chelsie went out on her hour run and Alicia and I got to spend time together and cheer her on.
So fun and we did amazing! We all beat our times we had planned on getting.
As we declutter before we begin to pack in a few months, it's so funny how the kids love playing with stuff we're getting rid of that hasn't been touched since we moved here from Wichita 4 years ago.
Sunday we go to see a house that is almost finished built that has the same layout as the walkout one in the photo above. We loved it, submitted our purchase agreement Sunday night and Monday in one of my 4 drives to Edina I flew my drone over to capture it better:
