Big Weekend

This past weekend we all did some super fun activities.  Mom and Odin went to Dalton, GA for Mom's 50 mile race.  We brought Kitty Poo with us and like always she was a sport about the drive and hotel stay.

 Mom finished 50 miles (actually 51 because she got a little lost and ran an extra mile) in 10 hours and 52 minutes.  It was amazing!  Odin was a super crew and support person!
 Here is mom at mile 14 feeling all chipper!
 At the very end of the race there is a ridiculous hill to climb.  Odin decided to give it a try...
 Meanwhile, back in Athens Dad took Bjorn and friends out boating for Bjorn's birthday!  Bjorn turned 8!!!

School is OUT! Odin is now a middle schooler!

On Friday Odin graduated elementary school.  So proud of our sweet young man.

More Awesome Pictures of the Boys

This weekend Odin did his first Boy Scouts camping trip.  He loved it and enjoyed a canoe ride (among many other things).

 Mom and Bjorn hung out while Odin and Dad were away.  We found a festival to go to
 and maybe yummy salads :-)
 Odin was so excited to see me when he got home he picked me up!  HA!  Isn't he strong!
 and always daring...jumping off the roof

Catching up on Cute Pics of the Boys

Just a smattering of cute pictures of the boys.

For spring break we took the boys to Myrtle Beach.  It was too cold for mom to swim, but the boys jumped right in!
 They loved the candy store!

 Just an adorable picture of Bjorn using mom's rocktape.
 And in Athens, it has warmed enough to start enjoying Sandy Creek lake.

 Grandpa is visiting.  He helped Odin build a bench/table for doing his HW on the garage roof (no lie!).
 HW station!
Yesterday Odin convinced me to buy dry ice.  Everyone had a blast!

February Fun

February is typically the coldest month in Athens, and the coldest run of the year is almost always on Mom's birthday weekend and it is the Heritage 7.5 mile trail race.  This year was cold, but not as bad as usual.

Mom ran with her friends Ellen and Rachael.  The kids ran the 1 mile fun run.



 Mom won her age group!
 and Bjorn was the 1 mile fun run!
 The following week we had weather in the 70's and mom and Odin spent some time out in the sun together.
 On mom's birthday Bjorn ran with her as his present to her.

 The following weekend Dad took the boys on a ski trip.
 and they enjoyed some hiking too.
