10 mile run + 10 hours of landscaping = 1 fun weekend

We had a very busy, but productive Easter weekend. Here's the rundown:

  • We finished the third leg of the "Triple Crown of Running" - which means we ran a 5K (3.1 miles), a 10K (6.2 miles), and a 10 miler in the last month and a half. This is all in preparation for the Derby Festival Mini Marathon (April 25 th). There were about 6,000-7,000 runners/walkers. They are expecting 12,000-15,000 for the Mini Marathon and Marathon in two weeks.
  • We spent the rest of the day Saturday working on a landscaping project in the backyard (see the Extreme Burnett Lawn Make-Over Photos Below). We added over 20 bushes and trees, 35 bags of mulch, 32 mini lawn lights, and 1 bird feeder to the yard. Needless to say, we were all very tired (dogs included). We went to bed (collapsed was more like it) and awoke to a beautiful Easter morning.
  • We attended Easter Sunday service with some friends and then shared a nice BBQ meal that afternoon. HE IS RISEN! HE IS RISEN, INDEED!
