Piper's Birthday, and Cannons Visit

As far as I know things are going well so far with the kids at school. Things are going pretty smoothly with the exception of lack of school bus drivers. Scott has had to drive the kids to school in the morning and then take a late lunch and go pick them up after school. I hope they get a driver soon! I've adjusted pretty well to working again and have a pretty good rhythm. I haven't felt overly stressed out or tired so that is nice! I went on a 3 mile run on Wednesday and it hurt my body! I guess I wasn't recovered from my 20 mile run. I didn't do a long run this weekend because of that. I rode my exercise bike for a few hours yesterday. My marathon is less than 2 weeks away. I hope I can do it! 

Gabby's rat Clover died on Friday. There have been a lot of tears. Rats are social creatures so I made the mistake of buying two new rats without realizing that they can't be introduced immediately. I had to go and buy a separate cage. Oy! Pets. Not my favorite thing!

Piper's birthday was on Thursday. I made her favorite dinner (lasagna) and made her a chocolate cake. We had cake and opened presents that night. The Utah Cannons came up for a visit per tradition this weekend. We have had a great time so far. Friday night they came and we had taco soup and chatted and Piper opened some presents. On Saturday we went and rode bikes and scootered the green belt. The Cannons are staying at a hotel right next to the river and the greenbelt. It's a fun location. That evening the kids went swimming and we had pizza in the hotel room. The Utah Cannons woke up early and went and watch the hot air balloons. I asked my kids if any of them wanted to get up at 6:15 and go see the balloons and they all said no, (hooray). The Boise Cannons a had a lazy sleep in morning. Today we have mostly been hanging out around the house. Nicole took Piper to the mall to pick out some birthday gifts. She came home with some blinging stuff. Tonight after dinner we walked to Jullion park. I'm not quite sure what is happening tomorrow but I suspect Pojos is in our future.
