Month: April 2013

I ran ten miles yesterday! At the Cherry Blossom 10 miler – downtown. It was a little early for the blooms, but it was a beautiful day and perfect for running. For those who care, Christine and I ran negative splits :)!!!

This is the week after spring break, it’s actually a short week for everyone. Last week, Jeremy and Vince went to Kiki’s house in New Mexico to help put mud on the walls. It’s been planned for so long, this house, this week of mudding. Jeremy’s brother Ben and nephew Felix traveled all the way from Sweden to participate. Three generations all together putting mud with their own hands onto the walls of this house. From reports from Jeremy, they worked long days and ate well and the kids had a great time. Vince was not allowed to bring electronics of any sort (which if you know him, really cripples his sources of entertainment, but it almost didn’t matter anyway – there’s no cell coverage or wi-fi where they were going to be) and I was a little worried about him getting bored or fighting with Felix. Luckily, none of these worries came to pass, Vince and Felix got along great and they basically played in the mud for nine hours each day. I guess making mud pies, getting mud on each other, etc. I got to see photos of the house, of the kids playing together.
