April 2016

April 1-

^A beautiful morning run with some neighborhood friends.

^Super Saturday! Every quarter we congregate for some work info and motivational and uplifting stories. This one happened on a Friday evening which is unordinary. It also happened to fall on Angie's Birthday, so we celebrated after with pizza and ice-cream. We did a group work out beforehand to earn it. ;)

^Steph came with us to the zoo for the day. Kai had a field trip there so we hung around with him for a while.

^I lose him almost every time we go to the zoo. He's always one step ahead. I think he gave the mom helper some anxiety. Whoops! He's just a busy boy!

^Yummy salads for dinner group.
