A Really Fun Weekend

The weekend after Josh and I returned from our trip, he was unusually free to hang out!  When we realized we were going to have a real weekend, we packed in as much as we possibly could.  Here are some highlights.

Friday night we did a segway tour of Richmond with our friends, the Crowthers.  We were a little nervous at first, only having heard the horror stories of riding segways, but we got the hang of it quickly. (If you need a good laugh, google - Segway Fail Compilation. You will not be disappointed.) It looks really nerdy, but trust me...it's pretty fun.  Plus, we learned a lot about this funny, little city we live in.  It made me realize that I'm taking the rich history of our city for granted.


 Rawr.  My segway had tiger stripes!

Never mind that I'm only 5'5" in this 6'+ club.  I seriously look like such a squirt.

Saturday morning, Josh ran the Monument 10K like a boss.  He hardly trained and did great.  I hauled the kids to the finish line just to watch him finish.


And as fate would have it, we happened upon two lovely ladies handing out free cans of Josh's beverage of choice.  Could this weekend get any better?

That night, Josh and Rex had planned to camp out in the backyard.  Rex was so excited, it was pretty sweet.  We fired up a fire pit and cooked s'mores.  Despite overnight temps dipping into the 40s Rex lasted all night in the tent.  He woke up a few times saying he was cold, but he did not want to go inside.  Instead, he jumped in Josh's sleeping bag and they lasted until morning.
