Instagram Photo I absolutely love surprising the kids! So, when the opportunity presents its self, I run with it. Car is packs and the kids have no idea that we are headed to Branson, to meet up with their cousins, for spring break! #whereohwherearewegoing #goingcrazy March 12, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo This kid CRACKS ME UP!!!! He decided that he would start training last night for his 1 mile fun run. He ran on the treadmill, ran up and down the street, did push ups and sits ups, and stretched all day yesterday. He ran today and didn’t do as well as he hoped but his many excuses more than made up for his lack of speed!!! He had me laughing out loud!!! The air is thicker outside than inside. He didn’t train enough. His daddy kept him up too late last night. He forgot to stretch. . I’m pretty sure he spent the entire mile coming up with excuses! 🤪 #hehasamillionexcuses #notbuyinganyofthem #stilllovehim #fianllyspringbreak March 8, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo Super proud of this little kid. 1st grade was given the option to run either 1/2 or 1 full mile. Eli decided he wanted to run the full mile and he came in 2nd place, with a time of 7:26!!!! #mylittlerunner #myrunningbuddy #goeligo #gotheextramile #hellospringbreak March 8, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo Such a fun experience. I loved doing this 5k obstacle course with my dad and brother, even in the cold and wet weather. We were lucky and did it early enough that we missed the sleet/rain. I loved running into trainers and friends throughout the course. Can’t wait for the next stadium takeover! #wutwut #takeitoutside #bettertogether #cgspoiled March 2, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment

Instagram Photo Once I told him that I didn’t use a lot of hairspray and that his hair would be back to normal by lunch, he was FINALLY ok with the Mohawk. We even got a smile out him! #theseareneilschildren #engineerscanhavefuntoo #raisinglittleengineers March 1, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo I couldn’t keep this boy out of the bathroom…he kept looking at himself in the mirror saying, “WOW, THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!!” We talked up crazy hair day all week, did a trail run last night to let him adjust to the idea, and it finally paid off. This was the first spirit day that he willingly participated in. He LOVED it, had fun with it, and said he can’t wait for the next one! #ofcoursehehadtodab #bluemohawk #wecallhimspikes #learntolaugh #learntohavefun #learntobealittlecrazy March 1, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo Crazy hair day!!! Take a guess at who was totally excited about today and who was having none of it! Wow-parenting is so easy and fun….today was about pushing him a little out of his comfort zone, knowing that it was in a safe environment and that once he gave it a minute, he would actually have fun with it! It’s so important to learn that it’s ok to be a little crazy and have fun sometimes! #learntolaughatyourself #lifeisshort #gocrazysometimes #crazyhairspiritday March 1, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo Remember back in December when it wouldn’t quit raining and all the mamas were going just a little crazy….I may have purchased an overpriced Mickey Mouse gingerbread house, in hopes of having a couple of moments of sanity…I may have hidden it for when I really needed it….I totally forgot about it until one of my children found it last night and came squealing with excitement to show me his new found treasure….we absolutely made a gingerbread house in late February! 🤪 #theyateittoo #theylovedit #solidasarock #dessert #christmasinfebruary #whynot February 28, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
Instagram Photo When you find an amazing deal for annual passes to Sea Life AND Legoland for $10 instead of $110, you drop everything and do an impromptu field trip! #computerglitchforthewin #lovesavingmoney #bestdayever February 28, 2019 Amanda Leave a comment
