Sodus Point Family Camping Trip

On Monday we rented a pontoon boat and enjoyed the afternoon right on the lake!

Thanks for the great trip Ma!

Sodus Point Family Camping Trip

Our first morning at camp...we headed straight to the beach.

Chance was the leader of arts and crafts with her hemp bracelets. Chance is Jessie's best friend and usually joins the family for the trips back to NY.

Thanks for my bracelet Chance!

Jim decided to skip arts and crafts and enjoy some time on the porch.

We had a birthday party for Jon and Ava. Happy birthday guys! Jon turned two and Ava turned four.

 

 

 

Lyds was a great helper to Jon even though I think he could have done it all on his own!

 

Thanks for the money Aunt Carrie and Uncle Pete!

Jon loved his tunnel! Thanks grandma!

The lawn mower was a hit too. Thanks grandma!

Ava got a ton of American Doll accessories. All the girls had a fun time playing with their dolls.

Even Chance!

The rest decided to kick back and relax.

Cake time! Jon decided a nap was in order so he missed cake.

Happy birthday Ava!

Sodus Point Family Camping Trip

Mom took the initiative and booked a cottage near the beach in Sodus Point. Tracy and the kids came in from Anchorage,  and Rudy and family from Rochester. Of course we were there, as well as mom and Jim. It was a great week...with lots of memories.

Checking out the water...of course, with fishing poles!

Pete spent more time fiddling with the fishing pool and the kids threw rocks.

7 @ 7 ALTITUDE WITH ATTITUDE CHALLENGE

Seven @ Seven Cross Country Challenge

“A challenging 7.77 mile cross country race starting bright and early at 7 a.m. Terrain includes trail, gravel, and grass. Do you have what it takes to finish this hilly course?”

     Today I ran the 7@7 Endurance Run at Green Lakes.  I also grew about 3 inches. All that running is making me tall…or I am making new friends who happen to be short. OK, so my new running friends are short. I can not lie. Meet new running friends Lori and Tina. We met on our Saturday long run for the marathon training program with Kevin Collins. We did a few of the 7@7 course tours the past few Saturdays as part of our long run. It’s a great course. I always thought I hated trail running. When I did the Learn to Run Clinic through Fleet Feet, we did our weekly training on a trail. I HATED it…but perhaps I just hated it because learning to run was hard enough in itself, so forget about adding uneven footing. Fast forward to now, and I LOVE it. I think Green Lakes is my new favorite place to run, hills and all. I know! I can’t even believe it myself. The variety a trail offers makes the weekly long run, not seem so long. That, and some running buddies certainly help. Thanks Lori and Tina! See up next Saturday! PS. I think my finishing time was 1:24. I even had to walk a few parts of it. Damn hills.

Lydia's pre-k graduation
