Midsummer Night Time 5ks with Bryn Mawr Running Company

Well, you might have missed your chance to run Broad Street - but there are tons of 5ks to sign up for and get going! Signing up to run in a race motivates you to train and most of the time helps a charity. The Bryn Mawr Running Company has a series of 5k races this summer that you won't want to miss.
Nice flat course, swag and a drink afterwards to celebrate. Here are the dates for the Midsummer Races. June 14 – July 12 – August 16 Visit the store in Bryn Mawr - but get ready to want to buy everything and devote to your life to running, yoga, fitness and not wearing baggy workout wear anymore.

Living on the Main Line means living in an old home. Living in an old home means you have a kitchen to redo. Not an easy process, but well worth it since many of us live most of our lives in the kitchen. Since I am not a huge cook I didn't go for the 9 burner stove. In fact, I found my stove on craigslist! Which freed up some of the budget for nice tile!
I had excellent help from Candy at Gravena Tile . We also used Richelou Construction, Donato plumbing and Village Cabinetry.

Swim Lessons for Main Line Kids

Swim lessons are part of growing up. Done with lessons? Time to join a swim team.
There are a some choices for swim teams if you live on the Main Line. Friends Central Aquatics www.swimfca.org, Baldwin, YMCA, Team Phoenix and Lower Merion Aquatic Club. Beware -- swim teams can take over your life! Some teams have quotas for how many practices swimmers must attend each week - and attending meets can quickly zap your weekends! But I would argue that there is no better sport than swimming.

Crazy for Main Line Homes

The light dusting of snow that we received made me itchy to take pictures. A favorite farmhouse in Wynnewood, a Penn Valley stone home I love and a gate that has the most interesting lights struck my fancy.

Philadelphia Museum of Art = kid friendly

The Philadelphia Museum of Art has great events for kids and open art studio time for children. When your kids outgrow the Please Touch Museum - trot over to the Philadelphia Art Museum. Here is a tip: if you are not there for a performance or studio art fun -- keep your visit short. Only plan on spending about 30 minutes. If your kids see a few pieces of art - this is better than trying to do too much, having a freakout and buying them snacks to keep them happy. Keep the visit short. But come back often. I recently took my 3 kids to the opening of the Van Gogh exhibit - and we toured the exhibit - with all three kids 9,6,5 listening to headsets about the art. We spent about 35 minutes in total looking at art and talking about the colors we saw etc. Short and sweet.
