This weekend was super cold and nasty outside. It rained and rained and then decided to rain some more. Did I mention that it rained and was freezing outside? What month is it??? March right? I signed up for a race Saturday morning. I didn’t really want to race, but it was for Columbia High School track/cross country team and plus I know the principal, so I thought what the heck. I got up and it wasn’t raining at all, of course as soon as I got to the race is starting pouring.
My watch decided it didn’t like the rain either and decided not to work, so I had to race watch less. We started and all the Columbia High School students took off like someone was chasing them, and then about 400 meters later, they were all walking. Ha! I jumped in front and another guy stayed right beside me. The course was great until the last mile which was really hilly. He said our mile splits were 5:36, 6:04, and then last mile was 6:11, but the course was long, about 3.2 rather than 3.1. Which doesn’t sound like a lot, but it’s probably about 20-30 seconds. Anyway I got first place, $100.00, and couldn’t feel my arms or legs because it was so cold.
The rain finally decided to stop around 4:00 or so, just in time for Perry and Amanda’s engagement party!!! The party was at the hunt club, or as ME would call it “Christopher’s House”. We had a great time, it was good to see everyone and meet Amanda’s family and friends. Course we didn’t get to talk too much because we were trying to keep up with two crazy children the whole time.
Sunday morning, since we are soooo nosey we went to Perry and Amanda’s to watch them open all their gifts. I just love wedding season!!! Course the girls enjoyed playing with all the boxes and trash.
Sunday afternoon we went to the Sportsman Classic, which is basically redneck heaven! They had a bunch of cool stuff, lots of animals, and more camouflage than you have ever seen. Since Ben works for DNR we got in for free, so we decided to go.
Finally the rained came to a stop, course that wasn’t until Sunday evening. We finally got a chance to dye our Easter eggs. I just love these naked babies!!!
