Race, Plane, & Wedding

Where has this month gone? It is almost Easter. We have been to a couple Easter egg hunts so far. I met a goal this month and ran in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. After the race we went to the zoo.

I was in a wedding this past weekend. Alex had a lot of fun watching and riding on the airplanes.

Goals Update for March

1. Read the Bible (I am ahead of schedule)
2. Stick to a Strict Budget (So far we are following our budget)
3. Run in a Race (April 2011...I am even on a team, so no excuses)
4. Read 36 Books (I read four in March. I have read eight total for the year.)
5. Lose 10 Pounds (Hopefully goes along with #3)
6. Blog Weekly (On average, I have the met the goal.)
7. Scrapbook Monthly (I still need to do March 2011, but I give myself the first week in the next month to finish.)
8. Monthly Family Game Night (Alex loves games...we played Ants in the Pants.)
9. Monthly Date Night (We went to the symphony.)
10. Go through Credit Cards (It is just March, so I still have time)

So far, so good.
