Saturday's 3 S's: Swimming, Sleeping & Shopping

After my 7 mile run on Saturday at the Y (yes, I managed 7 miles!) Chris, Jackson and I headed to McDonald's for lunch to kill half and hour before the YMCA family swim started. Chris got to enjoy his signature St. Patrick’s Day Shamrock Shake, a ritual started between him and his Mom when he was a child. Jackson almost couldn't’t sit still long enough (see “bridge” photo) to eat he was so jazzed up for three reasons:

1 – He had just come from Fleet Farm with his Dad where they have deer, bear and duck mounts to stare at. Not to mention a life-sized cow.
2 – He was at McDonald’s and got to eat his grilled chicken sandwich (he eats the WHOLE thing!).
3 – He was headed to the YMCA to go swimming and slide down the slide...a thousand times or more.

He crashed hard after swimming. He slept for over 2 hours but was back at it the second his eyes opened from his nap. So, we headed out to do some shopping and then enjoy the story book area and train set at Barnes & Noble.

The dog pictures cracked me up! Sam LOVES to give Hunter hugs, but doesn't always appreciate the kisses he gets back...also, Sam likes the grilled chicken snack wrap at McD's... :)
