Valentine's Weekend

Class Valentine's parties made sure Sophie and Rhys were stocked with candy and cards a plenty. Neal and Keri attended a church Valentine's gathering for adults in the congregation so we got our share of sweets and socializing too.

Keri joined as partners in crime with Cherri to run the Cupid's Chase 5K in Dallas, benefiting those with disabilities.  This is the first race we went all out with extra flare! Best friend T-shirts, red tutus, and feathers!  Keri came in at 33:18 and placed 7 out of 22 in her age division, 32 out of 167 females, and 60 out of 236 participants. She beat her goal of 33:37 and without wearing a watch to pace herself!

On Sunday we had our "fancy dinner" tradition with 'take and bake' pizza we got the day before. The kids decorated the table with paper hearts. We asked questions from our Tabletopics cube and opened gifts. Neal got a ham radio, the kids got Legos, and Keri got running socks and a great book on running. Pretty nice weekend!
