. We have been spending a lot of time in the yard playing with the kids. I play soccer, basketball, and football with the boys on a daily basis and we’ve stepped it up during the Easter holiday break. It is so nice to have loads of time at home with my family. The weather has not been great, but we don’t care. It has been a relaxing and rejuvanating holiday. As you can see in the photos, the boys like to jump off the swings.

Yesterday I cut the lawn for the first time this spring. It really needed it. I am almost finished with planting in the garden. This year besides herbs and flowers, we’ll be trying to grow veggies and fruits. I don’t know why the fascination with gardening hits people as they get older. I can’t get enough of it.
Nadia and I went for another run yesterday. We’ve exercised every day this break. My left knee is a bit sore and I should rest it, but we are getting ready for the Belgrade marathon which takes place next Sunday, April 18th. We will both try to complete the half marathon. Last weekend, we ran 15 kilometers and it felt good. So good that it started me thinking about going for the full marathon. But, with my knee in the shape it is in, I would be unable to do anything for a few weeks afterwards. Nadia is looking as beautiful as ever…
