I really wanted to run the same 5K as I did last year, and luckily so did a few of the other girls here. Me, Stacey, Alissa and Angela all did the Sandy Sprint this year, and it was just as fun as it was last year. The weather and the trail we run were just gorgeous and the festivities afterwards were also a lot of fun.
The kids got to get their faces painted, eat cookies and make crafts. Not a bad deal!
One of the fun things about being a student out here are all of the other wives of students that you get to spend time with. And every month someone plans a fun themed girls night to get together and chat without the kids. In April Kristen and Stacey planned a fabulous girl's night for all the girls (all fifteen or so) that are leaving this month (tear!). They arranged a game from a TV show that I can't remember the name of, but it consists of fun silly games. Our team had to pick up different sized paper bags using our teeth. The last paper bag was so short that I was practically doing the splits to get it. The second game we had to spin until we had wrapped an entire roll of toilet paper around ourselves. DIZZZZZZY! All of us ended up on the floor afterwards, ha!
It was a great night, I was so glad that so many people were able to be there. I am going to miss these girls so much!
I absolutely love going to Valley Forge. It's so pretty and there are endless trails to hike and bike. A few weeks ago we went to do just that. We took some less-beaten paths and had a great time exploring.
The beginning of April gave us some awesome weather and we took full advantage of it by heading to Ocean City for a day at the shore. We set up camp under the board walk and the let the kids go crazy. It wasn't warm enough to get in the water, but definitely warm enough to spend several hours playing, eating and getting plenty of marvelous sun on our faces. The company was wonderful and we had a great day.
