Insert Catchy Title>>>HERE!

Well - I am back from my blogger sabbatical! And have enjoyed a great week with company and without running...bad Mommy! But honestly, there was never an "opportune" time to leave my ladies - we were always so busy having fun!

So, to spare you all the details, I'll simply insert some pictures from our week and you can think of it as sort of like a picture-book...those were always my favorite - no words!!

As usual - with Gram's arrival comes a tidal wave of gifts!

Here they are, Karys, Gram and Auntie, playing with some of the new things

And here's Avery's gift...SO FUN!

And here she is enjoying her new toy,

And of course, how is a girls' closet complete without a overly stylish...hat!

Speaking of stylish....and all things girly....here's Avery's first official Piggies!! At 5 1/2 months!

Here are the girls enjoying their new sunglasses - looking cooler than ever!

And next are pictures documenting events never before seen...

Words canNOT convey how incredibly hilarious it was to watch my Mother attempt to 1) get ON the trampoline 2) figure out how to jump and 3) get off the trampoline!!!!

Get a load of that face!!

This is how Gram spent most of her time on the trampoline...

begging me to help her get off!!!

If only I could figure out how to upload a video on this silly blogger - yup, I got it on camera, and boy is it funny!!

Anyhow, now that I'm done laughing...again...now we're off to Canim Falls.....

sightseeing...

looking cute....

gorgeous....

one big happy....

So, our weeks was enjoyable to say the least! And, now back to real life! Meaning: getting my butt out there for a run! So...that's what I did this afternoon, while all the others were sleeping after church! Hard not to envy them, but I had to get out - so out I went! And it's done! I am not yet at that stage where running is actually enjoyable, but I do enjoy getting out and getting it done! As for training for a 1/2 marathon through the summer...yeah, not too sure what I am thinking?!

Anyhow, we're back off to the lake in the morning for the week, so if anyone is still out there reading this blog, you can stay tuned for pictures revealing our official "cabin" at the lake!!

Until then, be well and God bless!
