A very important running survey.

Like usual, I have some random information for you before we get to the title of the post.  

It is quite amazing how a $2.99 pool noodle from the grocery store made Brooke smile for a very long time.  We never made it to the pool to use it but she played with it for most of the day.

Brooke’s grandma on her dad’s side was in town yesterday so she took us for some ice cream sundaes at Thanksgiving Point.  My philosophy after my divorce has been—>  the more people that love Brooke the better and I really want to support her other relationships.  It’s been really nice to be able to have a good relationship with my ex-in-laws because they are amazing people.  

Brooke never even touched the brownie sundae.  All she cared about was the side of sprinkles.  

This (napping in my arms) doesn’t happen much but when it does, I soak it up.  

Mac and cheese was Brooke’s dinner request (with some veggies).  I was going to make a random sweet potato concoction for me but then mac and cheese sounded delicious and so I just ate it right out of the pan.  Sometimes kid food really is my favorite kind of food.

Turns out when I run my hair looks somewhat like a firework. 

Speaking of fireworks, I am already really looking forward to the 4th of July next weekend.  I am taking Brooke to her first ever Stadium of Fire and Journey will be there performing.  It’s going to be an exciting night.   Anyone else in Utah going to be there?
