Getting closer…. and one of my sister’s talents.

Just our favorite smoothies to start off our Saturday.

Running didn’t end up happening yesterday morning but I figured it was more than okay because I had a solid week with an 18 miler, some speed on Friday and 51 miles already for the week—> two days off from running this weekend wouldn’t put a big damper on marathon training. We had hours and hours of painting ahead of us (and Andrew’s family meeting us early to help us paint) so a rest day (from running) ended up working out perfectly.

We picked up Beretta and then we were off to the house to paint.

Turns out this yellow wall needed just a little bit of TLC to get it to the gray color that we picked out together.

Andrew was busy spraying the ceiling.

And I am very glad that we were able to get a majority of everything done while the kids are both away. There was a LOT of paint/everything possible everywhere.

I made just a few stops at The Home Depot because we kept forgetting everything. The workers there kept telling me that they would see me again soon whenever I was checking out;)

After that we met my sister and her family to pick out flooring. This little dude is getting too fast to actually catch on camera.

I need his smile on my face during my next marathon.

My sister has many talents and one of her many talents being—> she is AMAZING at picking out colors and finding the absolute best deal possible. She saved us a whole lot of money yesterday. I owe her big time.
