The Moon

Last week Turner and I sat outside and took pictures of the Moon. I tried to tell him about the moon but all he could say was: "Mommy, I don't want to live on the moon cause its too far away from you!" He does have a point!

We Can Go All The Way!

I have yet to blog about training for my first ever half-marathon coming up in January. DeAnn and I have been working out and running 5ks since this spring. We've been doing great, improving our time each race. My first 5k I ran in 37 minutes. Not bad considering it had this horrible hill that went up forever. Well, last night we ran at LSUS. The humidity had to be atleast 200%. But, overall we did really good. DeAnn wanted to come in at 29 min but we just missed that. We came in at 30:24, 2nd and 3rd place in girls! Oh, and our first mile we ran in 8:30! That is the best mile I have ever ran! So, HIGH-FIVE to us!
CORRECTION TO MY TIME: (Official Results were posted this afternoon)
Francesca McLelland 28:34.6
So, DeAnn and I did break 30 minutes!! YIPEE

Angela's Baby Shower

DeAnn, Jay, Wes, and I threw our friends Angela and Matt a couples' baby shower. They are expecting their first baby (girl) in November so we wanted them to be packed to the brim with diapers! Unfortunately, the LSU Tigers also 'played' Saturday night. Matt is not a fan of the Tigers so I had told the guests to wear their LSU gear to the shower. Well, Matt found out and this is what he, Angela, and her family wore to the shower:This is the wreath I made out of diapers.The boys watching LSU get stomped by the Florida Gators!Needless to say that now Wes will NOT allow me to throw another baby shower during an LSU Football game!

Visitors

We had visitors from Savannah, Georgia this week. Wes' friend Chris, his wife Lyndee, and their daughter Rachyl came in for a funeral. Chris is an Army Ranger and is about to go on another tour of Afganistan Monday. So, it was really great to see them but under not so great circumstances because Chris' grandfather had died.
