A 5K, a Firetruck, a tattoo, and McCartney!

Friday night Bobby and I ran a 5K together. This was particularly exciting to me since I usually run with friends or by myself. Bobby has always been a sprint one mile kind of guy, while I am the distance/endurance runner. He decided at the last minute to run this years United Way Trailblazer run with me, and I was ecstatic. As you can see from the photo's below, he was a little beat at the end of the race, but finished about 5 strides behind me, which is great for his first sanctioned run!


Also at the event was a Firetruck for the kids to check out. Jett loves firetrucks, and gets really excited when we see one on the road (especially if it's lights and siren's are going). He wasn't, however, a big fan of being IN an actual firetruck, or actually anywhere near one.




They also had tents set up for "tattoo's". Jett picked out a train tattoo. Surprise, surprise! I didn't realize those suckers were so hard to get off! 4 days and 4 bath's later, it is still on his arm.


Saturday we attended a wedding for a sweet friend of mine, Ami. Here is a photo that I snagged from my friend, as I forgot my camera. Can you tell I am a runner by my tank top farmer tan?!?

And finally, this week was the McCartney concert! SO good. If anyone gets an opportunity, they should go, for sure! Funny story. An email went out from the BOK arena that camera's would be allowed at the concert, which never happens. So of course, I took my camera. We parked in the parking garage to my mom's office about 5 blocks away and walked (in almost 100degree heat) to the arena rather than paying to park close. Once we got there, I was informed that my camera was professional, and camera's with special lenses that can be removed or external flashes were prohibited. Being the runner I am, I removed my uncomfortable, cute heels and ran through the streets of downtown back to the parking garage, locked the camera in my mom's car, and ran back to the BOK arena barefoot. Yep! It's a good thing I trained for a marathon down there. I know the streets well. Here are the pictures we took from my mom's camera.

I used to be a runner! Loved it...sometimes miss it but I have become a lazy girl. I need to get back into it. I am an endurance runner too :)

Jett what a cutie pie!
By the way, I can't keep my eyes off of Trigg, even when he's alseep. :)
