so 3 days before my 5K, I got a fever. let's see.....1st person to get sick was hubby, followed by bryan, then me and lastly, Brandon. it wiped us all out and the boys took turns being absent from school. I was feeling miserable. I was trying to see if someone could run the race Saturday in my place. I hated to miss the run after paying the entry fee. I couldn't find anyone so last minute so hubby told me I should just do it and that I could walk it if I couldn't run.
and so I decided to do it----sick as a dog and all! me and the boys before the race.
and me after the race. I ran and walked. proud of myself that I went that morning and glad I did it. watch out mud run.....i'm coming for you next! I clocked in at 35:39. I was shooting for under 30 minutes but I did what I could!
this past weekend, me and hubby went to a wedding without the boys! and sunday, the boys were invited to a laser tag party. we even got to play a round! so much fun! so it was a good opportunity to make some cards for the occasion!
saw this idea on pinterest and knew I had to make some!
a great way to use and recycle jars. I spray painted the lids, added edible grass, a chocolate bunny and added robin's eggs (whoppers). I finished them off with some lawn fawn baker's twine and added a little tag w/ a stamped a lawn fawn bunny. will be gifting these to mom friends and teachers.

bryan informed me last week that he has a loose tooth. his first! so I had to get working on his tooth fairy pillow. he's so excited but I also know he's scared and nervous!

Hi Ivy! I'm finally coming out of the hole that I have been in for the past 5 months so I am catching up on blogs. You rock for completing the race while being sick! Hope the family is all better and staying healthy.
I love the beautiful bow on that first card and I bet the recipient loved that personalized birthday card. And those Easter jars? Too cute & fun!
I'm guessing that Bryan has used his adorable tooth fairy pillow by now. Lucky boy!
