Triathlon: Bobby’s View

June 13, 2013 | fitness, Race Recaps, running

Bobby took over my blog for the day, I hope you enjoy his point of view! Each year our neighborhood hosts a triathlon. Two years ago we spectated, and last year we volunteered. Iโ€™ve been saying for more than the past two years that I wanted to do a triathlon, but I somehow still managed to ...

It is not lost on me that we are so blessed to liv It is not lost on me that we are so blessed to live where we do, having all the opportunity we have been given. I am always telling Emma Kate how fortunate she is, and that some children are not as lucky. 

Did you know that over 355 million children are trapped in poverty? It's a heartbreaking reality that can't be ignored. But together, we can make a difference. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’™

I'm incredibly grateful to be partnering with Compassion International, a child-development ministry dedicated to releasing children from poverty in Jesus' name. Through their amazing work, local churches provide individualized and holistic care to these precious children, giving them the freedom to learn, grow, play, and dream. ๐Ÿ™โœจ

Sponsorship is at the heart of this journey. By sponsoring a child, you not only offer your prayers and financial support, but you also become a source of encouragement and love. Knowing that a child will know your name and feel cared for is truly special. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿ‘ฆ

Let's come together and be the change these children deserve. Join me in making a lasting impact through sponsoring a child, and also teaching our children about giving and caring for others. Together, we can create a brighter future filled with hope and opportunities for these beautiful children. ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ’ซ

Bobby and I love being outside, and we are having fun growing flowers and vegetables. Our daughter Emma Kate enjoys planting seeds and watching them grow, but it requires some upfront effort. Luckily, @walmart has a fantastic selection to make your lawn and garden shine effortlessly! This first picture is the "after", swipe for before when I was potting my wildflowers, which I can't wait to see bloom!

We're all set with @pennington plant food, potting mix, Hummingbird & Butterfly Garden Wildflower seed mixture, a flexible @flexonhose (50'), and a charming @Betterhomesandgardens pot and saucer to kick-start our gardening journey. And you can bet we'll be back at Walmart for more supplies soon!

The seed mixture includes over 100,000 flower seeds, attracting hummingbirds and other pollinators to our yardโ€” which our curious dogs love watching from the window. The high-quality potting mix can be used indoors or outdoors, while the lightweight white pot with fade-resistant paint adds a touch of elegance.

Visit Walmart to discover these essentials and more, ensuring your lawn and garden are ready for spring. Click the link in my profile (tap the photo above) to start shopping!

Do you enjoy planting flowers in the spring? What's your favorite?

Yesterday, we did a thing. ๐Ÿซฃ ๐Ÿถ We have been Yesterday, we did a thing. ๐Ÿซฃ ๐Ÿถ

We have been wanting to get a puppy for Dolly and Emma Kate ever since we said goodbye to Bella last April, but with us moving the timing was not right.

We took the leap yesterday and welcomed this sweet thing home! She is an F1b mini goldendoodle who will grow to approximately 20 pounds. Itโ€™s a sweet story how we got her, Iโ€™ll explain it later! 

Iโ€™m running a contest to guess her name. First one that does gets a prize from me! You can guess as many times as you want, but one guess per comment please!

Aarrrgghhh! We visited @piratesfl while on vacatio Aarrrgghhh! We visited @piratesfl while on vacation a couple of weeks ago and Emma Kate was in Heaven! (She said she wants to be the mermaid when she grows up!)

Enjoy dinner and a fun and action packed show when you visit. You will get to join a crew and cheer for your pirate as a story unfolds. Cool acrobats, fight scenes, and an opportunity for your child to be a part of the show. 

If you are in the Orlando area and your kids love pirates, be sure to check out their website and reserve dinner! ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ 

Have you ever been to a dinner show?
