Reid's parents and his sister Amber came to visit. It was so great to see them. It was their first time seeing Millie so they had fun snuggling with her, and playing around with Brooke and Owen. We spent a day at the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga which was really cool.
The butterflies were much more active than they have been in the past. Brooke loved that they were landing all over her. Isn't that one above beautiful?
Owen really didn't like the butterfly room, this is his grumpy face.
This sea turtle is named Oscar, he lost his back flippers when he was in an accident with a boat.
Don't those sharks look freaky?
Lunch at TGIFridays
Reid and his dad grilled ribs one day. They were amazing! Those are Reid's crazy meat eyes!
Owen had croup when they were here, and was pretty grumpy and exhausted the whole time.
Brooke adores Amber. She loved seeing her and hanging out with her for a little.
A couple summers ago Reid and I starte doing a little trail running. We really loved it and Reid kept on doing a little here and there while I stopped running altogether, gained a bazillion pounds and had a baby. Since having Millie, I've been trying to get running again and Reid has kind of taken off going on longer runs and really getting into it. Anyways, there was a trail race we wanted to do and Reid's parents kindly drove up to the mountains with us and watched our kids while we ran. Reid did a 17.5 mile race, while I thought I might be able to handle the 10 k option. We got to start together and run the first 3 miles together before we split off. Reid did great and I finished my 6 miles before any of the runners from the 17 mile race finished so that was a victory for me. We had a great time. It was fun to get to run together in such a beautiful area.
