This weekend was one of those glorious, sunny mid-70s weekends that hover on the cusp of summer and fall.
Saturday morning I woke up early to get my long run over and done as quickly as possible. Using the term quickly loosely here, as I had to run 13 miles. The Train Like a Mother plan doesn't mess around when it comes to owning, as I basically just ran a half marathon when my half marathon is still two months away. The weather was perfect for a long run, thankfully! I finished and lazed around the house (read: grocery shopped, went to Walgreen's, and did a load of laundry) in compression socks for most of the day, then went to Dairy Queen to fill some of my calorie deficit. Sunday I woke up surprisingly mostly not sore, aside from a little bit in my legs, so we decided to take advantage of another beautiful day and headed to our favorite local arboretum.
The boys loved the chance to stretch their legs and run in the sunshine.
And splash
Of course, we always have to visit the train garden!
I'm hoping we get a lot more weekends like this before winter settles in and I look back on this post, all gloomy and sad. Sigh.

I want to play at your house on the weekends.
Definitely a beautiful weekend
LOVE the pictures. And I never ever have enough weekend.
you need about 50 more of these weekends ... without all the running, of course. ;) you ROCK!!
It looks gorgeous. We don't so much have to worry about "winter setting in" here in Arizona, but then again, we don't have rolling green hills like the ones pictured in your post. Beautiful!
