"tri-ing"

haven't posted in quite a while. now the school year is winding down and we and there are so many new things. too much to write about now so here are a few highlights:
1- started training for a triathlon to be held in july of this year. it has been a great experience and i feel stronger and faster than i have for years. i even pr'd at the spring runoff this year in the 10 mile. i have also been trying to eat a more healthy diet and it seems to have paid off with some weight loss.
2- maya and lily continue to be the best! they are so much fun to hang out with and i really enjoy my time with them.
3- two great trips planned for the coming months. in two weeks melisa and i go to san antonio (me for a conference on literacy). then in june we are headed to mexico for a week of r & r. we are going to take the youngsters with us.
4- gg's 90th bday celebration is at the end of the month. should be a great party!
well, that's a slight overview of some of the most recent happenings. i will try to do better about updating things as the rest of the year goes!
