See Jane Run...

About a week ago, I was able to participate in the See Jane Run Half Marathon in Alameda. It was seriously a lot of fun. I ended up driving down with a bunch of women from my stake and it was such a great experience. At the end of the race they had all of the goodies as usual, as well as chocolate for all the participants. Who wouldn't run for chocolate! John and Brady were at the finish line to cheer me on, which was the best part of all.

My little bird....

When we came back from our vacation in Yosemite a couple of weeks ago, I was doing a little weeding in my flower pots in my front yard. I picked up what I thought to be a dead flower, but turned out to be a bird's nest! I was completely shocked! I was certain that because I had touched it, the bird wouldn't return. Well....




I WAS WRONG!!! Our little bird has since laid four eggs! It is so fun to go out there every morning and evening and to see this sweet little mom sitting on her eggs. She rarely leaves. It has kind of given me a really cool perspective on motherhood. Definitely one of those things I could use in a Sacrament talk someday. :)
