I apologize for my absence with the blog. We have been busy trying to stay on top of things around here while enjoying what life brings us every week.
I have completed my 13 weeks of running camp and next Saturday is the big race! I have enjoyed this camp more than I thought I would. I have been running off and on for years and pretty much thought I knew what I needed to know. I could not have been more wrong! I have learned so much in the past 13 weeks and met a lot of nice people. For those of you wondering, I do not plan on breaking any records. Ashley keeps asking me if I am going to win the race. I had to break her heart and tell her that I am hoping to finish this 13.1 miles feeling strong to the end and that time does not matter so much.
Nicole finished her indoor soccer season last week and her first outdoor game is this afternoon. Ashley's first soccer game was yesterday morning at 8am and it was really cold! Her team won the game and she had a great time and played hard!
Yesterday after soccer we spend the entire day and much of the evening in Holt for Nicole's DI Sate Tournament. Her team got 3rd place and she couldn't be happier! They worked so hard for so many months and that is a huge honor! I think they competed against 14 other teams. They received a medal and the success was all over their faces. 1st and 2nd place move on to the National Competition which is held in Tennessee in May. Thanks Mema and Papa Miller for making the trip to see her. I know that meant a lot to her.
I will try to post some pictures in the next week.
