Color Run 5K

The Color Run came to Terre Haute. I think I signed up as soon as sign-ups opened...so a long time ago I had originally planned on running it, but after injuring my foot and recruiting my mom to sign-up so the girls could go to, I walked it. As my mom could tell you, I was not very patient. We were walking SO slow!  We took one umbrella stroller, so we were switching on and off carrying the girls, pushing the girls, or walking at their pace (SLOW...haha)! When we did walk at my pace, my mom said the girls had to run to keep up. We didn't finish last and it's not like it is a timed run, it's just for fun, but I do not walk super slow so this was difficult for me to just enjoy it like I should have, but I did have FUN! The girls loved walking through the color and of course we got a TON of 'Aww, look how cute!" The girls stole the show so much that my mom barely even had color on her at the end of the race because the volunteers at the color stations were more concentrated on the girls...haha. 

I'm grateful my mom decided to do the race and hope that I can take a step back and just enjoy it through the girls' eyes as my mom did next time we do a color race. Natalie did the Color Me Rad run last year with my mom, but this was Aubrey's first time.   


We were all exhausted afterwards and all took naps, well Natalie refused but at least relaxed on the couch watching Sophia the First. However, she did fall asleep at 6:30p last night and slept through the whole night. She must be fighting off a bug though because she had a fever today that I didn't discover until later this afternoon. :( I hope it's a quick one and just ends up being a fever.

Aubrey kept wanting to hold Natalie's hand, which of course was sweet to watch.

My poor sickie wanted cheese, but fell asleep with it in her hand :/


Feeling a bit more normal, but still a fever after a good nap.
