An Update

A few weeks ago the local little league teams got to go out on our local AA baseball field before the game. Crew was very excited. He wears his hat so low all you can see is the big grin.

On May 5th I did my first triathlon! Well, it was a super sprint triathlon but it still counts. Our Elder's Quorum put on a "Tin Man" race which was comprised of a mile run, 3 mile bike ride, and 200 meter swim. Matt and I both competed and it was really fun! Crew was so impressed that I got first in the women's division. Its about time I get some respect around here ;) Matt competed with a slightly disfucntional bike which may have costed him the gold but he still managed to come in second. After our race Matt and I went to the pool without our kids to celebrate our anniversary. Can you believe it has been 8 years? It was fantastic date! 

 Last Monday evening, Graham split his chin open in the bathroom. I am getting better at handling these situations. My strategy is- Stay calm, stop the bleeding and then assess the wound. Sadly, this one needed more than a kiss. So we picked Matt up at work and after a little trip to the ER he came home with some dermabond on his chin.

 Unfortunately, the dermabond didn't last through the next day. I'm pretty sure it became easier to pick off because he soaked it with drool despite all my attempts to keep it dry. So, the boys and I headed back to Urgent Care. In hindsight, I wish they would have stitched the poor kid because it has not healed so well but oh well. Chicks dig scars right?

And Mother's day. Breakfast, chocolates... fantastic! Crew and Matt picked some flowers while they were camping for Father Sons this weekend and made this sweet card. That husband of mine is definitely a keeper!
