Great Day

Today was great. Eric got up with Blake at the early hour of 5:10 so that I could sleep in. I took a shift and then went back to bed for a two hour nap. I haven't felt so good in a long time.

The weather today was amazing. It was about 50 degrees and I felt in heaven. I went running outside along Lake Michigan with a couple of buddies. (We are going to run a half marathon in May.) We ran toward the city and it was all so beautiful with the sun shining, blue water to the right, and city buildings up ahead. It felt so good to be outside and I realized how much I have missed it. Blake hardly knows what "outside" is because he is always bundled and covered when we go. Eric took Blake for a walk along the lake as well.

We had saved up all of our Christmas money and today we spent it on a Wii! We are so excited to play and I feel like I'm five years old. Eric is hooking it up right now. And to my sisters out there: If you were here I would let you play it. I would let you have a turn. I would not hog it and make you watch me play. I'm sorry!

I seriously can't believe how much it warmed up while I was GONE! Unfair.

Hooray for half-marathons! Good for you, Katie, although I am such a CA wuss that 50 degrees still sounds freezing to me... It's all relative, I suppose.
