Happy Birthday to Nancy

Firstly, thank you to Nancy for filling in for me on the blog with her recent blog update.  It is also Nancy's birthday today - Sam and I are wishing her all the birthday joy for her special day.  It is a family day as I have taken the whole day off.  Sam and I were up early, leaving Nancy to have a lie in.  After breakfast and the window cleaner entertaining Sam we all headed to play school.  This was my first time at this venue and it was fantastic to see Sam in his element, very active, climbing all over the place, up and down the slide, banging drums and chatting with his buddies.  He face was full of fun and wonderment.

Last Sunday, I took part in the Times Colonist 10 KM run in Victoria and this is the third year running that I have attended this event.  Without any training or proper preparation I managed to complete the course in sixty minutes. This was about five minutes slower than my time in 2011, so a little disappointing but encouraging that my latent fitness got me across the finishing line.

I better go now as we need to go and open Nancy's birthday gift from Sam and myself (a new IPad).  One of the first photos taken on the IPad is included.
