Special Date

 Brody and I had a Double Date today

at the Zoo with our good friends 

Miss. Jessica and Jackson!

It was a lot of fun!

I really treasure my time with my boys

one on one! Although Brody and I missed

our favorite little Brooks, it was a "Special Date!"

I just adore my little Brody!

He has such a Big Heart!

Of course Brody is all for the Rides,

just like his Dad!

It was a Special Date on 

Leap Day! It must have

been good in my 3 year old's eyes

because as we were leaving Brody 

said..."I had a fun day Mom!" 

And then Kissed me on my hand!

He melts my heart!

Thanks for the Special Date Brody!

Rock 'n' Roll

 

At 4 am I started my day to 

start one of the most exciting days of the year!

RACE DAY!

Yes, it was the Glory day!

Victory Day after a a vigorous training schedule!

At 40 degrees it was a bit Chilly this morning,
 but definitely better than a HOT day!

I had hoped and prayed for cold weather

and was grateful to not be in Florida's Humidity 

and heat but the wind whipping
 around and hitting us was tough!

The girls and I were super excited and ready for the challenge.

Running with my girlfriends Jen, Bridget, Kristen,
 and Bridget was very inspiring and very enjoyable!

It was one of the Best Races I have every done!
This was my 3rd 1/2 Marathon Race.
I had my best time yet, beating my last
 race by 30 seconds and finishing at 1.57.
Not much, but the last mile running at a 7.30 pace
kicked it up a notch!

I did it....13.1 miles of Glory!

Great day, Great Race, Rock 'n' Roll!

My First Rock 'n' Roll Series that goes around the country.

Bridget S, Bridget K, Jen, and myself

after the Race! Freezing I had to put a jacket on!

My Race Bib #3104 and my Medal!

My Collection is growing!

Thanks to all for the support

and inspiration to be the best I can be!

A special thanks to my family for cheering 

me on during the Race and at the Finish Line!

This was a Great Race!

I look forward to another Race!

Rock 'n' Roll!

Cowboys

 The Boys had a great weekend

as they lived a dream of being Cowboys on their Horses!

We all celebrated a good friend's
 birthday at a Horse Ranch!

The boys absolutely loved riding the horses!

Yeehaw! Ride em Cowboys!

Brody all smiles with his horse Suzy!

Brooks was fired up and ready to ride his Horse Sky!

YEEHAW!

Elmo Party

 That's right!

My little Nephew Rocco's 2nd Birthday Party

theme was "Elmo".

Where there's a Party...there's me!

I just had to make these adorable little 

"Elmo Oreo Cookies!"

They were a HIT!

So adorable and perfect for his theme!

I simply got Oreo Cookies and Dipped

them into Red Candy Melts.

I made little Elmo Faces with Confetti Sprinkles!

Super Duper Cute!

Yum!

My boys were thrilled to 

be celebrating their

Cousin's 2nd Birthday!

The Birthday Boy with his Mommy!

Rocco with his Favorite Uncle Mike

in his New Chair!

Brody and I had to even get a picture

with the big man himself Elmo!

What a great day to celebrate 

Rocco's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Rocco!
