After 36 years of marriage, Sarah had finally had enough of me.
She decided to take the law into her own hands.
So, Saturday morning, Halloween, she dressed as a policewoman, I dressed as a robber, and she chased me through a 5k!
Fortunately, we both escaped with medals, first place for age group for me, and third place for Sarah. We even won an award for “original” costumes.
We’ve spent most of our adult lives being responsible. Now that we’ve retired, we’re discovering there’s still plenty of room to be irresponsible–at least when it comes to Halloween costumes!
We had the grandkids for the bulk of the week. We needed to get them home in time so they could spend Halloween with their cousins, and parents. We had a busy week!
We spent Thursday at the Brookings Children’s museum. They had a blast! All 3 of them!
They even worked out with us in the “Reiflex Center”…
We were doing planks, and Tessa tried to do one, but instead I think it was easier for her to just “pray” for us! Connor had just got done working with the dumbbells, and Caleb is not in this picture…he is off to the side in his pack and play so he could be a part of everything too.
After all this, it was time for a break! We may be getting older, but we have always said that growing older does not mean we have to stop living. We are setting the example for our grandkids now. They get to work for things too, but we are going to have fun too!
As for me, the robber…I did get caught after the finish line…but I still got my “loot” in the form of a medal…and memories!
Keep moving everybody!
