Saturday morning the kids and I (Tim had to work \ud83d\ude41 )\u00a0 joined Jen at her church to participate in a 5K–it was FINALLY a gorgeous<\/strong><\/em> morning to be outside!<\/p>\n

According to the church website, it was: “a 5k fun run\/walk to benefit and raise awareness orphans in Otjiwarongo, Namibia Africa and raise funds for Eagan Hills Student Ministry.”\u00a0 Jen asked if I would walk with her so I decided to push Josiah in the stroller and Chloe got to stay back with her cousins.\u00a0 In fact, almost all of the Friesen side decided to participate in the event:\u00a0 Kristen, Jeremy, Ryan, Stephanie, Jen & myself!\u00a0 The only grown-ups that didn’t run were Patsy and Tim.\u00a0 But it worked out perfect because all the kids got to hang out and play yard games with Patsy while we ran\/walked.\u00a0 Oh and the girl cousins even decided to run the kid 1\/2 mile fun run too!\u00a0\u00a0 I was pretty surprised that Chloe decided to run with the other girls because I totally forgot to tell her about it and she was wearing strappy sandals that were hard to run in…<\/p>\n

Then we went over to Jen’s house to hang out and have lunch–it was fantastic!\u00a0 Well, until I had to leave early and come home to clean the house for a showing and leave the kids there for everyone else to watch for me and then Patsy was wonderful and brought them back home for me.. before that, I had a fantastic time!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

And in all seriousness, it truly does make me appreciate my extended family so much.\u00a0 I was able to just leave both kids there and I knew that they were in such good, capable, loving hands that I didn’t have to worry about anything.\u00a0 So, even though I felt guilty (and a little frustrated) for having to leave them–they still had a great time!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Today I start teaching my summer session.\u00a0 I’m excited to only be teaching on Mondays and Tuesdays for the summer.\u00a0 I have big plans for trips to the zoo and beach and visits to friends and family all summer long!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
