Blueberries for Matthew and Claire

On Saturday Jeremy watched the babies so I could go run in the South Lyon “Muddy Shoe” 5K with Rhonda. It was POURING when we got there but as the race started the rain stopped. They were not kidding when they called it the Muddy Shoe race; at the end of the course (with about ¾ of a mile to go) there was a huge mud puddle that you had to wade through. I decided (not on purpose) to go swimming in the puddle; so needless to say, this was not a personal record for 3 miles for me. Here’s a photo of Rhonda and I after the finish line:

Here’s the website, you can check out the video of everyone running through the mud, yuck! http://www.secondwindrm.com/muddyshoe2009results.html
On Sunday, my Mom and I took Matthew and Claire Blueberry picking with Susie. (Jeremy had to work) They seemed to have a good time. They enjoyed screaming at the top of their lungs, grabbing on to the bushes and squishing the blueberries in their little hands. We went to Hazen’s Farm in Howell, they also have raspberries and apples so we’ll have to go back later in the season to pick some different fruit. Here are some photos of the babies enjoying themselves at the farm.
