Easter with the Jarvis'

I'm back (and much sooner than I anticipated) with our Easter weekend recap!  What a crazy weekend it was, but we had so much fun!  Our holiday's always turn into weekend "events" because we have so much family to see.  This holiday was no exception, but suprisingly, I felt more relaxed than I usually do around a holiday.

On Saturday morning I was able to squeeze in 10 miles with my friend Kerri before I had to be home to shower and get ready for church.  It was a solid last run before my half this weekend and we were able to maintain around a 9 minute pace for much of the run.  Running a 9 minute mile is my goal for this weekend's half.  We shall see.  I'll be sure to update on my race results on Saturday afternoon!

After my run, I was able to shower and get ready for our church Easter egg hunt.  After the hunt our church had an Easter church service that was family friendly.  It was crazy with all the little one's in church!

How is it that Nani's Easter basket for the girls is bigger than the one they recieved from "The Easter Bunny"??

On Sunday, we went to my mom's for lunch and then to Sean's side of the family for an egg hunt in the afternoon.  It was great to be with family the kids loved hunting their eggs.  We ate an over abundance of Easter candy--I still am and I can't stop!

Waiting paitienly to see their Easter baskets!

He came!

 

Love that face!

Just a quick recap of my workouts this week...I am in a taper week since the half is this weekend, so my workouts have been small.  I ran (on the dreadmill both days) on Tuesday and Wednesday.  My workout on Wednesday was pretty good.  I did a 20 minute HIIT workout alternating at a 9-9.5 for a minute and then 6.5 for a minute.  I finished it up with a Fintess Blender tank top arms workout and abs.  Today, I am going to try to get in a quick 2 miles with my friend Kerri and then call it good until Saturday! :)  Looking forward to trying new workouts next week!  I've already begun pinning things I want to try! 

Talk soon,
