Study Saturday

We had a study kind of Saturday.

Brad Paisley was on the radio.

Oliver was studying how he could strum his guitar

to Brad's music.

We went to get some reading material for Oliver

to listen and study.

Mommy is figuring out how to get her studying

done properly this semester. 

Finding him locating the books he wants

makes Mommy happy.  No one needs

to study that, its a fact.

Now if he'll actually listen to it.

Poster + Book on display.  (Mommy is 

too tired to think of a witty comment.  But

there has to be one.)

Making a mess.

Where is he?

Oh in the garage.

Painting.  Mommy needs him to study how to paint

with a drop.

And how to clean up!

We are looking forward to Easter tomorrow and studying all

the cute face of Team Cousin!

Home

Oliver is home.  He had a week full of camping and fun.  He still has another week of spring break and Mommy has another week of work before her spring break!  We are taking it easy this weekend.  Homework and play.  

Resting and trying to learn iPad stuff.  

His tent has been up all week.  Mommy still needs

to clean up after his day at home with Maggie.

There was evidence all over the house that they

had fun.  

Mommy had a class meeting she had to attend tonight

on the computer tonight and Oliver was very respectful.  

Oliver is very understanding of Mommy's schoolwork.

Most of the time.  She is glad he can always find

a lot of things to keep him busy.  

(Goodnight and sweet dreams.)

Hot Chocolate 5K

Oliver woke up at 3:00 am asking if it was time to get up yet.  He couldn't go back to sleep.... 

We had a fun time in the city, running his biggest, most crowded race yet!  

Early start time.  

He was excited!

Start line!

We were standing next to the Central

Library.  Mommy couldn't help but

think of all the studying she needs

to do this week.

Getting closer.

The corrals behind us!

There we go!  Lots of little hills and fun things

to look at in the city!

In motion.

Chocolate station!

He liked how people would yell and scream in the

tunnels.  

Speeding to the finish line!

Crossed it!

Only picture Mommy got of the finish line!  Oops!

Yums.

So much fun!

We ate a little bit and then saved the rest for later.

We also got really nice jackets at this race and headbands!

Stains.  

Larabar was generous and donated snack for

two practices for Mommy's Girls on the Run team

when Mommy asked.  So nice!

Mommy liked this sign.  Best sign she

has EVER seen at a race.  So sweet.

(The chocolate was making Mommy feel

 a little tipsy.)  

Just fun city pictures.

We pretended we were staying in luxury at the Hilton

and walked around the lobby near the parking structure.

More exercise.

On our way home we saw the 15K runners...

And we stopped at IKEA to eat breakfast!

The rest of the day was great, with just a little

meltdown before bed because someone was TIRED!

Oliver and Scout are being babysat tomorrow by Maggie!  Oliver will be off with his Daddy for the rest of the week to enjoy his Spring Break.  Mommy will see Oliver on Friday for another nice together weekend.
