Friday (4/14/06)

Good Friday. Today the kids and Jason are off. This day is very special to our whole family. We are so thankful for the sacrifice that Christ made on the cross for us! I tell you the truth – I get just as excited about Easter as I do about Christmas. If He had just been born and nothing else – where would we be? This weekend is about the miracle of supernatural life! Speaking of new life – today I got to work out with Chad!!!!!!! I miss that guy! I haven’t seen him or trained with him in weeks. I was so excited to see him today and share with him some of the progress I’ve made. Boy did he get right to it today! Dead lifts and hipsled. When I went to lift the weight on the hip sled I said to him, “Chad this is the most I’ve ever lifted isn’t it? This is heavy!” He murmered back, “No, you got this.” So I plowed through it. Erin was there talking to us and she couldn’t believe he was making me lift that much. She got a little scared because Chad is going to train both of us together on Monday. We’ll have a blast! When I got done on the hipsled Chad finally fessed up that that was the most I had lifted and that that was more times than I had lifted it as well. He’s so sneaky!! But I love him!! Ran afterwards and called it quits to go home and get ready for the weekend. Birthday party tonight.
