Home Sweet Home

There's no place like home! Home for mother's day weekend with Buddy and we are all happy! Buddy loves it here, especially that backyard where he can run free! Looking forward to a good, relaxing weekend! :D

O.M.G.

OMG....coming home from training tonight and turned the corner and the sunsetting was b-e-a-utiful!!!!! I was in ahhhhh!!! Haven't seen the sky so pretty in quite awhile. I caught it at just the right moment! Clouds were starting to build in and were so pretty throughout the sky! Thank you God for your creations and beauty!

Tomorrow is TGIF!!!!! Finally :D And next week I'll be in Chicago now! Ahhhh stuff to look forward too! Praying the weather is nice there next week. Last I looked at the forecast possible rain :S Let's hope the change that by next week! It is however so pretty outside tonight! Storm looks to be rolling in, lightening in the distance, cloudy and getting cool! Summer storms! But they did say maybe possible chance of golf ball sized hail! Let's hope not!

Hope everyone is having a good week, almost to the weekend. Spend time with Mom's! They sure are special! ;)

Just chillin'

A shout out to Dad aka Conner tonight! We love you! :D And of course miss your rough house playin! I wish everyone could see Buddy and I roller blading! Cause I'm pretty sure it's quite the site to see! hahah, I'd laugh! I laugh while doing it! And Buddy just loves it and goes nuts, especially with everything he see's!

Week is half way over, almost TGIF and can't wait! And what beautiful weather we have had lately!!! Golly could stay like this forever and I'd be alright with it! Except suppose to maybe rain now in the next couple of days.

9 Loooooong Days

Yes, this week is going to go sooooooooo slow now, I'm thinking about it too much. haha. Hurry up! Everyone else wants it to be next week too. Ok they do because they want finals to be over. I do cause I want to go visit Conner! So we all want it to be next week already! :)

Pretty typical day today. Running with Buddy this morning where we saw a rabbit and a cat! Which equals not good cause Bud wants to chase them, and I have to pull him, and pull him, and pull him! Running is starting to get frustrating. But I have to remember I'm mainly doing this so he gets the good exercise, not me. Gotta put the children before yourself! ;)

I'm so ready for summer, lake, vacations, sun! Please come soon! If it can't be summer tomorrow let it be at least next week. haha. Ok no more complaining, I'll try not to think about it so much! Adios

10 days

I can not wait for 10 days! I wish it were next Monday already! I'm soooo ready to go to Chicago! Get outta town, away from allll work, forget about it all, and see Conner, watch some baseball, and just chill! Ahhhh...I'm day dreaming already! Haha. Pray the weather stays nice as well! 10 days!

Can't complain about the weather right now! When I want to complain about everything else, I just can't complain about how nice it has been outside these last couple of days! The sun is gorgeous! Keep on shinin!

Breathe of fresh air

Ahh Sunday and a day to relax and do as I please. Actually slept in, for me that is, till 8:30 and got up and chilled with Bud awhile. We went roller blading over to the tennis courts and played ball for a bit. That made him tired fast, he pulls me! haha. Just soooo nice outside and felt so good to get some sun and fresh air!

Listened to Conner's game this afternoon! He hit well, but they lost! Then just caught up on laundry and the usual Sunday tasks. Nothing too exciting, but was nice! I sat out on the patio deck outside my apartment tonight. So peaceful, listening to the birds, watching the sun go down. Heavenly!

I was reading the church bulletin I got and it had a good little poem/insert I would like to share.

In Your Love, Lead Me

Lord, when I want to love but do not know how, in your love, lead me.

Lord, when I want to love but do not feel able, in your love, lead me.

Lord, when I want to love but find no response, in your love, lead me.

Lord, when I want to love but feel small-hearted, in your love, lead me. Amen

Runners High

Today my lovely parents and pup came to town. My mom and I participated in the John Blaufuss 5K run and 2 mile walk. It was a b-e-a-utiful day out, couldn't of been any more perfect! I planned on running this stricly as a fun run, thinking I probably wasn't in as good of shape as last year, and there were a lot more girls running this year! Started out nice and slow, keeping my pace, and eventually worked my way up. In my mind the whole time was Conner pushing me, and encouraging me to keep going. Then I'd think of Buddy and our runs together and how he'd want me to go faster. Then I'd think of my parents who came to root me on, and my friends! They were all my motivation! And of course above none else was the good Lord! "I can do all things through him who gives me strength!" That's what went through my head as well!

I managed to get first place in the girls and beat my time from last year! :D I was shocked and amazed and happy! It was a difficult run, I could tell I was running faster, especially at the end and the big hill, which we like to call Miss America! My mom got to climb Miss America for the first time, and probably last in the 2 mile walk! I was soooo proud of her!!! :) So glad my mom and I could do something together and for a good cause.

My parents, the dogs, and I got to hang out and chill for the rest of the day! Was nice to just catch up with them and be in there presence! Love them to pieces and love how they always support me! And Buddy loves playing with my dad, or shall I say wrestling. Conner would be glad he was getting some rough play in! ;)

Got to hang out with some friends tonight to top of the day and now home with Buddy and ready for bed! Glad tomorrow is Sunday and nothing planned! A day to catch up and do whatever!
