Today was a rest day for me on the training schedule then tomorrow I'm supposed to run 9.6k but since we'll be heading home tomorrow and we'll need to be out of the VRBO by 11 am, I decided to do my run today.
Plus it was nice out, slightly cold but not windy and sunny so a great day for an outdoor run.
I had to stop and use the bathroom at a garage about 3k in but after that I felt great.
9.6 is so close to 10 that I figured I might as well just keep going and round the number out to 10.
The exercise details.
My average pace and splits.
It felt so good to get a run done outside - I like the treadmill but outside is so much better.
This is the outside of the house we rented - I love it.
We had tickets to go see the Disney Experience today at 1.
Everyone else went out for some brunch while Jason and I showered then we just met them over there.
We thought we'd stop for Shawarma's on the way but we didn't have time.
They had this big giant Mickey inflatable right outside of the experience so you know we had to get pictures.
Freya.
Kody, Haylee and the girls.
Jason and I - I got a new coat last night and I love it.
Freya and Zepplyn.
It was basically a room with gigantic screens on every side and they played Disney songs and showed excerpts from Disney shows.
The played 'We Don't Talk About Bruno'
There was a mom and daughter there together both dressed like Mirabel which was cute.
It was pretty cool to see it on the huge screen.
Eden was just taking it all in.
At one point all these bubbles started coming out from the center of the room which was really cool.
(You can see the Mirabel in the picture here.)
They did it while they were playing a song by Ursula so under the sea-ish - which was fitting.
I loved seeing the giant characters on screen.

Freya was getting a little bored so she stole Kody's hat and glasses to entertain herself.
Acting like dad.
They played the song from Tangled that I love - I See The Light
Everyone was just kind of sitting around watching.
People were singing and dancing and just enjoying themselves.
Seeing all the lanterns on the big screen was so pretty.
Another shot of them.
Flynn and Rapunzel.
Then they played another of my favorites, this time from Moana "How Far I'll Go"
I didn't get to see it all though because Freya had to go to the washroom so I took her.
Then they did the bubble thing again and this time they were smoke filled.
The kids all loved it - not gonna lie - I digged it too.
It was good timing because she was getting bored.
Eden slept through most of the bubbles.
She woke up a bit at the end but was more interested in Mommy than anything else.
Finale - just taking it all in.
It finished off with fireworks (on the screen).
The whole thing lasted about an hour which was plenty long for the little ones.
A bit pricey (about 50 bucks per person) but a good experience overall.
From there we headed over to Millenium Place in Sherwood Park to take the girls all swimming.
I never take my phone in the pool with me so no pictures but we did have fun.
Jason and I pretty much kept Eden in the shallow section then Kody and Haylee took Freya in the waves and stuff with Crystal and Zepplyn.
Eden just loved the water.
Jason did get a picture of her in her baby swimsuit after we finished swimming.
Isn't it super cute?
She's always so serious looking.
The beginnings of a grin maybe?
Yup - there's a smile.
Zepplyn just loves her.
From there we went to dinner.
We were going to go to Montana's but there was an hour and a half wait so then we thought Original Joe's but same thing so we suggested the Bedouin's and luckily we could get in no problem.
Also, Kody, Haylee and Crystal are up to try pretty much anything.
Freya was getting tired and didn't want to take her coat off or eat anything.
Jason and I.
Zepplyn and Haylee.
Kody, Freya and Crystal.
I had the special shawarma platter which had both beef and chicken.
The food was good - the servings were huge, I don't think any of us finished our meals.
Then it was back to the house.
I had told Kody and Haylee they could go to a movie and we'd watch the girls but they were too tired by the time we got home.
Some more pictures of the house that Haylee took.
The Doughnut room where Kody and Haylee slept.
The Spicy Suite.
I think this is the room that Crystal and Zepplyn stayed in.
Random Art.
Old Cassettes around the mirror in the bathroom.
I think the owners created some of this art themselves.
Love it.
The Hot Suite.
Modelling the Hot Suite that nobody ended up using.
More random art.
The styling was so interesting.
Dinosaur planter.
There was lots of dinosaur themed stuff in the house too.
I did get some more snuggle time in with Eden while Jason kept the other girls busy.
The rest of us watched the making of the 'We are the World Song' from back in 1984 which was interesting.
Haylee posted some pictures that I of course had to share.
Eden - love the hair bow.
Love the smile even more.
She looks so much like Freya when she was small only a little less hair.
Haylee.
Freya with a messy bun.
She is such a natural beauty and she has the greatest personality - I enjoy her so much.
That's all for today, until next time, be happy!
