What do you want to be when you grow up?


Last night Evan told us what he wants to be when he grows up: a farmer.
He informed us that on his farm he'll have a tractor and he'll grow vegetables and he'll have hay. He'll also have two horses, one for him and one for his friend, Joel. We asked him if we were going to live at his farm and he said, "No, just me and Joel. Mom and Dad have to live at their own house with Oliver. I'm going to live with Joel!"
Hmmm... I'm not sure if Joel (Adam's friend) is totally prepared for these future plans.

Oliver continues to grow and smile and coo. I wonder what he wants to be when he grows up. Probably it'll have something to do with being bigger than his brother so he can hold his ground!

Half Marathon and training


Do you really need to training for a half marathon? I guess the answer depends on how much pain you enjoy. If you like mild tightness, then maybe you should run a bit before jumping into 21 km. However if you enjoy not really moving for the next 30 hours then you don't really need to train. Just buy some beers, chips get some movies and sit.

All jokes aside, it was a lot of fun. I, Adam ran the Harvest Half Marathon in 1:44 and really enjoyed myself. It was a beautiful run in Fish Creek on the warmest fall morning this year. Check out the web site.
