Since a few of you asked for a bit more about the marathon…here’s a little bit about my journey to marathon day: January 31, 2011 I hit confirm and paid my $91.05 (with tax). I did this mostly on a whim. I decided that if I wasn’t going to be moving back to Africa like … Continue reading The Journey to Marathon Day
Oh hey. Maybe you thought I forgot to fill you in on all the amazing marathon-ness. I didn’t! Granted, I wrote eight pages of my own memories shortly afterward so you’ll get the condensed bulleted version. Here goes…. (this was taken toward the end…love that i’m still smiling–that was one of my goals to smile … Continue reading marathon recap

Such a tough question…both?! If I had to choose, I guess I would go with mountains but … Continue reading Global Running Day

Here I thought maybe I would get this up close to 9 months and I’m still a bit late (ha I wrote this close but now we added in month 10 too). The last month or so have been jam packed of fun though! We headed out to Rapid City and Rocky Mountain National Park … Continue reading 9 Months and 10 Months
I found one of these posts in my drafts folder from when Asher was 2 months old so I thought I’d revisit and share what our day has looked so far now that he’s a bit over 2 years old. Alarms for Ryan go off at 6:00 am and he’s getting up around 6:15 to … Continue reading A Day in Our Life
Somehow summer seems to fill up fast with all sorts of fun things. We’ve had our fill of doing VBS at church (we did a super fun Lego/builder theme this year), vacation in Glacier National Park and Banff, birthday celebrating for Asher, and now we are heading into kids camp, a few Minnesota traveling weekends, … Continue reading Lately
Here’s what I’ve been loving this week! I’ve been fighting a cold the last few days so there’s a slight theme with some… 🙂 1. Hot water with honey! This has totally made it easier to drink lots of fluids. Nursing and being sick meant upping the fluids quite a bit! 2. Ice cream…for … Continue reading Friday Loves
