After the girl scout sleepover, we headed home and Mike and I cleaned up the house, did some yardwork, and invited our new next door neighbors over for dinner. They are really cool people. We just had pizza and beer for dinner and they brought a cheesecake for dessert. It was fun hanging with them. I only had one beer since I had to get up at 5am and race the next morning! After they left I packed up my bike in my car, packed my transition bag and headed to bed.

Since I hadnt had a busy enough weekend yet, after the tri on sunday, the family all headed over to Mike's mom's house for a party! We had a little get together for Travis's birthday a few days before and for Mike's birthday which is coming up soon. Travis's fiance made home made lasagna that was SO delicious. Dottie made gooey cake and chocolate peanut butter cake. Yummy! I definitely replenished all the calories I raced off that morning!!

Before that party we took Andrew to Goodwill to try and find something to use to make him a costume for his living museum monday morning. It turned out pretty good for a last minute throw together.

After little sleep both friday and saturday night, fighting off some sort of illness that was leaving me headachy and sore throaty (NOT swine flu), yard working, racing, partying etc I was EXHAUSTED and crashed not long after putting the kids to bed sunday night.
