Unfortunately, my sister and brother-in-law weren't able to be home. (I am hoping if she see's me plugging her blog in here she just might update it!) On the bright side, Steph was able to head out to Seattle to see her hubby. He has been there since February, preparing to head oveseas. If I remember correctly, he leaves the states sometime in the next week or so. We will wait anxiously for his return home next February. We love you B!
Most of the weekend was spent relaxing, but I was able to get in a handful of good workouts and keep up with Jillian's 30-day shred. I have done more biking than usual in the past week and a half, so my primary focus this week will be running, then swimming. Running is starting to feel a little better, but I am still taking it easy and haven't done much more then 3.5 miles at a time.
The temps are starting to rise and it feels wonderful. The snow has pretty much melted. Tomorrow it is supposed to be close to 60 degrees and I look forward to taking advantange of an outdoor run!
Flooding is still an issue and worry across the state. While driving back from Bismarck this morning, I noticed more standing water in ditches and farm fields than I have ever seen in my life. Twice I had to slow down because of a foot plus of water running across the interstate. Kind of scary if you think about it. Here are a couple pics...
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Monday!

I just learned yesterday that one of our team's most beloved members was being called up to active duty for a year and heading to Afghanistan. I have a lot of friends whose spouses are overseas right now. It's a long wait for their return, and I know your sister will appreciate having family near.
