Hi Everyone,Elli had a great B-Day.  Like any princess would do, she made it last all weekend long!  We went to Organ Stop on Thursday, party at her school on Friday, went to the zoo on Saturday, and I took them to the park to ride the train on Sunday.  She told me got everything she wished for!!
 
And her fav. part was Organ Stop (she loved the dancing cats!) and getting Thomas the Train.  It is amazing how that place totally captivated both of them!  We realized Organ Stop is celebrating their 30th anniversary and Dave actually went to Organ Stop 30 years ago when he was 5!
  
The zoo was fun too!  Though Elli was tired and Daddy’s leg was hurting, tt was great to be with Grandma Nese and Aunt Sarah!  She wore her B-day crown the whole time at the zoo, very cute!
We are all LOVING the weather here.. I ran a 5K race on Friday night and it was a beautiful 70(s) degrees outside.  It feels so great to be able to get back into shape and run..even though it hard to find time to run (I usually run at 5am, if I can motivate myself to get up), it has REALLY become my “me time”.  I am trying  to (I WILL) run a 5k every month and then slowly increase my mileage and run the PF Chang’s Half Marathon in January of 2010.  
That is about it here.. Everyone is doing well.. Jak man is doing great!  Eating and talking a ton!  And he is healthy!!  Such a change from last year!  It is SO incredibly nice to beliving a “normal” life with our kids.Everyone have a Happy T-Day.
It is going to be very nice to celebrate Thanksgiving out here in WARM AZ with Grandma Nese and Aunt Sarah… though we will also REALLLLLY miss being with Barbie’s family!
Love to all! Check out the new pics!
