You know ...

... it's a good day when it starts like this


East Bay Mermaid Run 2012
5K for Mama and 1.5 miles for L, 
the Little Mermaid Athlete


Hugs for Mama before her run



The cutest fan ever!


# 3012 ready for her turn!


Not so sure if I can do it!
I haven't run in a LONG time!


YOU CAN DO IT MAMA!


OK, I'll try!


Mile 2.3 ... STILL running!
The Lady in front of me had a heart with wings on the back of her shirt. I followed these wings all the way around the lake. She never stopped and neither did I.
After crossing the finish line I tapped her on the shoulder and told her that she pulled me through the race. She was so touched and gave me a big hug :)
THANK YOU Mystery Lady!!!


 I DID IT!!
39 minutes for 5 K ... a SAD time BUT I ran it all the way through and felt great!


Little Mermaid on her run ... working HARD!!!



1.5 miles was a LONG way for her! 
We never trained, as planned but she gave it her best!



Close to the finish line I had caught my breath and Lulu and I decided to help L finish her race.



Final Sprint!



WE DID IT!!!



All smiles after the race.
I am SO PROUD OF MY L!!!
What a sport!


Her "trophy" and Lulu got mine .. she actually outran us at the finish line.


After a much needed nap I went to the park with Dork and Lulu (and her puppy).

Dork wanting to play ball!



Got it Mama!



Look at that happy Dork-Face :)

 
Meanwhile Papa and L were busy working on my Mothers Day gift ... detailing my 4Runner.


Cleaning Buddies :)


Before ...

 
After ...



Polishing my lights :)


Ending the day on a "dirty" note :)
You know your day was good if your feet look like that :)


4 little hands - one BIG heart!


Awesome day!!!

Happy Mothers Day to all my mommy friends and to MY MAMA!!!
