Brea 8k

by Kristi on February 25, 2010 · 4 comments


I have somehow been talked into running (walking? limping?) the Brea 8k this Sunday!! About 5 miles, I think?  They have all these yummah restaurants sponsoring the run and will have tons of food at the end. Will that be a sufficient carrot stick to get me to the end? Luckily my walking partner is pretty cool about hanging back and waiting for me.  So I’m nervous but pretty excited! I’m going alone without any kiddos or strollers so I think it should be tons of fun!

Deliciously Tired

February 13, 2010

I’ve been trying to walk more and some of my friends actually… jog. I know, who does that, right?
But this morning Griffin got up at god’awful o’clock and Sam shortly later and since there is only so much TV they can watch without me feeling lime a horrible Mother, I tossed them in the [...]

Fun Morning

January 27, 2010

It’s the little things…
My wonderful Mama had us over for dinner last night and took BOTH kids overnight and through the morning.  So I woke up this morning and turned on the news! I adore watching the news, ABC all the way. I’m so sad Diane Sawyer is not on anymore though.  I will spend [...]

My Must-Read Authors

January 10, 2010

If anyone knows me at all, they know I am reader.  Mostly romance but I read books all the time.  Constantly.  I know myself, and I know if I want to get anything done I can’t be in the middle of a book.  If I am in the middle of the book… I. Must. Finish. [...]

It’s a New Year

January 1, 2010

Ahhh, the wonderful New Year’s post! I’ve read so many of them today already.  It really doesn’t feel quite like a new year yet, maybe it will on Monday when we get into the normal routine of things.  We had a wonderful Christmas break though. I read tons of books on my new Kindle (love [...]

Family Girls Night

December 23, 2009

My Mom and her sisters, sister-in-law, and friends have always had fun martini nights.  The younger ‘children’ have always been sad to watch them go because we wanted to join them!! Well, we are now all old enough to do so.  Well, except for Dana.  Sadly, a few of the girl cousins were [...]

Wordless Wednesday – Turbo

RIP Turbo
9/1/2000 – 11/30/2009
I’m not good at wordless posts… (Obviously…) This was taken in 2005, the night of Sam’s birth, I believe.  The husband went home late at night to set up a few things and he snapped this picture of the boys.  It was pointed out that Turbo died 9 years to the day [...]

My Four Year Old

December 18, 2009

My baby turned four a few weeks ago! I can’t believe how old she is.  She suddenly seems so much more grown up. She can write her name, tell jokes, do some addition, has lots of different friends, and is such a sweet and helpful girl.

She had a week full of parties and birthday fun times and I think [...]
