1. Nick and I took off Friday afternoon to volunteer for the Miles for Maple Grove Fun Run at Ellie's school. The kids take donations from family and friends and then everyone at the school runs a mile in the afternoon (the kids get t-shirts too!). I would call it a successful event, as the school raised $23,000 that goes directly back to the school. Nick and I helped out with Ellie's class and ran the mile with them. Nick stayed with the front of the group and I tagged behind to make sure we didn't lose anyone in the process. Ellie is great (according to Nick) but running may not be her favorite thing. She was excited to leave school with 'parent pick-up' instead of going to her after school program.
2. I played my sister in Fantasy Football this week. I am still waiting for her telephone call to congratulate me on my win.
3. We celebrated my birthday with dinner with Nick's mom and husband on Sunday evening. The girls got a little extra time with Grandpa and Grandma and we always love Cheesecake Factory!
4. We had family pictures taken last night. I cannot wait to see the previews!
5. I am the homeroom parent for Ellie's class. Which means I get to coordinate the class parties (me organizing a party, I think I got this!). I met with three other mom's last night and we planned the Fall Party that happens at the end of the month. It was so much fun to plan the party, and what an amazing group of moms!
