Quick Weekend!

This weekend was pretty full for me. On Friday after work, I had planned to ride with Jessi. It was freezing outside so I wussed out and opted for the trainer and she was on board. I still can't get into aero position without some shoulder pain, but at least I can ride! Afterward, Jessi treated me to a bike wash! I had some serious dirt caked on there so I really appreciated her help. I was also pretty impressed with her bike cleaning skills. She was taking stuff apart and I had to ask if she was going to be able to put it back together once, but she did and my bike is nice and clean! Thanks for spoiling me lady!

On Saturday, Eric and I spent some time working on our house. Since we are hoping to move toward the end of the summer, we need to get quite a few projects done to increase the value of our current home. We spent a lot of time painting, cutting, and installing quarter round under our floor boards. What a blast - yeah right! It does look really good though and it was nice to spend some uninterrupted time with my hubby. He is so handy! I'm really impressed by all of the things he knows how to do. Growing up with a handy man dad, I sure am lucky I found a handy man husband!

We took a couple of hours out of working to watch our niece, Hannah, play in a soccer game. We have made it our goal to make it to at least one of each of our nieces and nephews games this year. It's a lofty goal since we have 7 of them who are involved in sports right now! Wish us luck!

Hannah is #2 - the one closest to the ball.

Afterward, Delaney wanted to be just like Big Sis. Here she is kicking around her soccer ball. Please notice that she has one of Hannah's old soccer jerseys on under her coat. The red sparkley shoes are the perfect touch, don't you think?

Way to go today, Hannah! Uncle Eric and I were very impressed with your skills out there on the field!

On Sunday morning, I wanted to swim with everything in me. It was killing me to know that I was going to miss the master's swim with the club. However, I can't quite make a full swim stroke motion without pain in my shoulder just yet and I don't want to push it. I was definitely thinking of you guys all morning, though! When I got on the Tri Fusion Gallery to see what I had missed, I found the pic below! Absolutely hysterical!!! Thanks to Jessi and Steve for letting me know I was missed! You guys are hilarious and very sweet. I'm crossing my fingers to be back in the pool toward the end of this week.
I did get an hour run in yesterday and it felt amazing - even though about 20 minutes of it was in the snow! I was so thankful to be able to be out there. Taking so many days off for my shoulder was making me feel like a serious couch potato!
