Hap-PEEP Halloween

MDA has Ghoulish & Casual day the Friday before Halloween, every year (for the last 2 years). This year I wasn't going to spend a whole lot of $ on a costume, Jon and I don't have a ton of parties to go to or anything and no boo bash to dress up for a justify the expense twice. So, I present you with my $5 costume.... *which I am VERY PROUD OF*

I was not JUST a bunny, I was a PEEP! :) Had so much fun Friday as a Peep, and truly enjoyed Ghoulish & Casual Day at the office!

I AM BACK!!!

Had my first GREAT workout today ~ WOOO HOOOO!!! I am pretty sure anyone that passed me on the road thought I was crazy, big smile on my face, couldn't be happier to be on the road. 2.1 miles ~ 28:50 time ~ 13: 25 pace ~ I was walk/jog/walk/jog/walk/walk/jog/walk/walk/cool down

BUT you know what? I DID IT! And I did Level 1 of Jillian's 30 day shred. I am determined to get back into shape for me!


WOOT!! Can you tell I am on a high right now? It was beautiful outside, Mr. Big was ECSTATIC, my ankle felt good, I was nice and stretched; it was FANTASTIC. Can't wait to do it again.

YAY!!!!

Check my running log on the left column ~ it will keep moving!!

Girls Weekend

Jon and I had a week and a half of house guests; it was FANTASTIC! First my parents followed up by two of my bestest friends!! Just hanging out on the improved back porch, drinking a few beers, telling stories and just generally being amazing!


Rachael succeeded this trip in making a mini-burglette and Mr. Big benefited from the tiny burger


The other FUN thing we did this weekend?!!


WE WENT WEDDING DRESS SHOPPING!!! And the girls tried on Bridesmaids dresses and it was SO. MUCH. FUN!! Want to see?!


My name on the dressing room!! :)



My two girls ready to try on EVERY dress in the place.... such troopers

Lock Ups ~ WOO HOO

Last week we had a lock up in Borger, Texas. It was FANTASTIC! We had a great turn out, 33.68% retention ~ $17.97/listing ~ and a pretty great jb average. So excited for our team, and especially Randi. She was the point person for this event and truly stepped up to the plate and lead our team to a wonderful success!

Thank goodness for some very giving people and a great community to support their citizens and MDA.

Home all day - - lots of time to dream

ABOUT RUNNING GADGETS!

Sad times hit my iPod. It won't turn on, so sad. I am going to try and get it fixed, but no ipod means no running tracking, I miss the running and now I want/dream/wish for one of these

What I need to find out, is it what I need? From what I read on the details, sounds like it will fit the bill. But dear readers, do you know?

My birthday ~ Jon's Birthday ~ just a bit late...

Did I tell you Mr. Big got a Puppy Whip a few weeks ago at Starbucks? The cup was almost completely FULL! He loved it!

of course one of the first pictures I took was of the dog :)

Laying in his monkey bed backwards....

Thanks Mom and Dad for the birthday money that purchased my new camera! AND it's PINK!!

There's an Upside to being sick?!

I can think of two when I try really hard, because I HATE being sick. It's not fun to be off of work (because I know all the stuff that is stacking up for me) and I know all the 'catch up' I will have to play. BOO! But back to the two upsides: 1- I am getting to watch Army Wives, which I totally love and 2- I get to update the BLOG! 3- Yesterday I did a TON of research for the wedding, we will get a wedding planned, woo hoo!!

So Mom and Dad were in town last weekend and I didn't get a ton of pictures but I have a few. Mom has most of them, can't wait to see them!

Mom and I Saturday night!

Lovemy mom!

Dad getting the food ready for the burgers!

Such good burgers!

and of course Mr. Big

Hello!

STREP THROAT?! WhAT!!!!!!!!!!!

How did this happen!? I'm sick. :( I have Strep Throat.... I didn't know that I could get strep at my age? *WOW what an old sentence, "at this age" poof! I can't remember the last time I had strep throat ~ I am pretty sure I was in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL! Sucky.


So, I am taking it easy. My best girls are coming to Lubbock this weekend, I CAN'T BE SICK!


From last post I am going to try again to upload some photos.

Jon and I with the Pinkhams!

Mere and all of her girls!



The photobooth at her wedding was so, so MUCH fun!!

I think this picture from a different angle is so cool ~ I will see if I can post the photo the professional photographer took from the front.

The professional picture from PhotoEmotion photography -- so pretty

The Pinkham's bridal party!

Julia and I at the reception, so. much. fun. :)

You can click on all of the pictures to make them bigger- loving the new uploader. That was much EASIER to put pictures on the blog.

Going to take my meds and eat some lunch- will post more later :)
