Hi Mom,
After missing a few weeks time to catch up in great detail.
I'm not sure where you guys are :-) We've had a good week of Monday off for Memorial Day, our first full week off of school, music practice, visit with Grandma, babysitting Padraig, worship team this morning, a friend of Chloe's spending the night tonight, Megan and Clara off to youth group tonight as well.... plenty of busyness.
The Bolder Boulder on Monday was great. The day was perfect - amazing weather and 50,000+ people of the 10K race. My goal was to break 40 minutes - I was 00:39:46.98 - 7th in my age group out of 429 (513 overall). I was pretty happy with that - it was about the best I could do. I was a pretty consistent 6:24min/mile pace. [results pictures] We just hung out for the rest of the day and ended up grilling for dinner. We've been enjoying the back deck as much as possible now that the weather has turned nice. I think the snow is behind us finally :-)
This weekend has been a work weekend around the house. We cleaned out the garage yesterday. It looks great. We threw a whole bunch of stuff away (had to make a run to the dump). Cleaned out all the grit and dirt from the winter. Identified some good garage sales items and cleared space for all the garage sale items Theresa has collected in the basement. There were a couple of garage sales in the neighborhood that we walked around and checked out - see if we could get any ideas and tips. Looks like we will be having our garage sale on the weekend of June 26th (maybe Friday and Saturday).
The girls have been busy earning money. They've been cat sitting for the past week. Chloe and Megan both have had a few babysitting jobs. Chloe has some more baby sitting this week. And Megan is lined up for dog sitting over the next several weeks.
Chloe starts volleyball camp this week. And Megan is headed out to Nebraska in a week for the middle school retreat.
Church was good this morning. We are working our way through a summer series on wisdom and the book of Proverbs. Tom is teaching it. There are a number of staff members out on sabbatical for the summer. Aaron Britton, our worship pastor, is one of them. After 5 years as a staff member at Calvary you get 3 months paid sabbatical. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me. So - for the past 3 Sundays and for the rest of the summer we have volunteers leading the music. It was fun to play this morning - I wasn't leading but being the only acoustic guitar in the band meant I was louder than usual. A bit nerve wracking but good.
Home after church to do yard work. Mow the grass, trim a few bushes, weed whack... not my favorite thing but the yard is looking good. I turned on the sprinkler system last week - no major leaks from the winter. I had to patch a few holes. Keeping up with the yard is a never ending task. It just keeps growing :-)
We've watched a couple a fun movies this weekend. We watched The Tooth Fairy starring the Rock with the girls. It wasn't too bad. And then last on your recommendation we watched The Young Victoria. That was good too. Sure is an interesting life being a royal isn't. Fun to learn some of the history - longest reigning monarch. Queen Elizabeth II is gaining on Victoria though. She should over take her in 5 years :-)
I'm still waiting to hear about a new job at work. There were two openings and they've filled one. But there is still one left that they should announce in the next few days. I think the one that is still open is the one I really want. I know they've interviewed 3 external candidates for this position and there 2 internal candidates including me. We shall see. I would like to get it but I'm also just anxious to know what's going on. There will be a big re-org coming too and everybody is anxious about that as well. Corporate life - ain't it grand! But it's good to have a job. I spoke with Steve and know he's still going day by day to see what's next for him.
We did talk about 4th of July plans. I think we leave Boulder Friday (7/2) night after work and drive 3-4 hours to Colby/Hays. And arrive in Lansing Saturday (7/3) early afternoon. We'll stay at Steve's until around Wednesday (7/7) then head over to Independence to spend the rest of the time with Ken and Mona.
Theresa let me in on a surprise that's been in the works. She's been planning on an anniversary night out. We are headed to see Sting and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Red Rocks on Wednesday night. Should be fantastic.
Whew - okay - that's enough. Hope all is well with you.
luv u,
Jeff
