New ribbon

I ordered some new ribbons and they came in today! I still have the ribbons from the previous post. You now have a greater selection to choose from. If you have a hard time telling what colors are on a ribbon send an e-mail to bd47258@yahoo.com and I will let you know.

Skyline

This weekend Scott and I are running our second run together. I don't think he is quite as addicted as I am, but he runs because he loves me. I know, I know, I married an amazing man, and he reminds me everyday of that. I just hope he thinks the same of me. Let's face it, without me he would live off of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. So I suppose I am good for something.

Anywho, back to running. Yesterday morning we went on a run. The weather outside was really humid and breezy. We ran a neighborhood with a constant incline so we will be ready for downtown Charlotte Saturday.

I am wearing a shirt from SR and my own no slip headband. I know you guys are dying to know where this sexy look comes from. Run hills outside when it's hot, and you are pushing against headwinds, and this look can be achieved for free!

Check out SkinnyRunner tomorrow. You might see something/someone you recognize. Happy Wednesday!

Roses

Last summer Scott planted a rose bush for me in our little backyard. To our surprise the bush has gotten huge with lots of flowers! I kill everything, but have managed to keep this bush alive. Maybe it's because I have left it alone:)

I have fresh cut flowers from our yard on our dining room table!

Happy Easter

We celebrated Easter this year at home for the first time in a 4 years. We were able to celebrate with my sisters at church. After church since we weren't doing anything with Scott's family until 2, we went to eat brunch at Restaurant forty six. If you live around Kannapolis this restaurant is a must try. We did the price fixe buffet, and were delighted at the selection of food. There were fresh pastries, salad, yogurt bar, eggs benedict, bacon, sausage, chicken apple sausage, biscuits and gravy, quiches, shrimp and grits, pancakes with syrup, hashbrown casserole, and eggs or omelets cooked to order. Oh I can't forget the dessert table, with small samples of different types of dessert.

My favorite thing in the whole buffet was the yogurt bar. I went back for 2 trips.

After brunch, we headed over to Scott's parents house for an Easter egg hunt with the kids. Scott and I played the bunny this year and hid eggs at his Grandparent's house.

Austin found the last egg.

Side note, he made his Easter basket at school and was so proud of it.

Noda tasty finds

Saturday evening Scott and I headed over to the NoDa district in Charlotte. NoDa is an art district that very much reminds us of something you would find on King Street in Boone. We ate dinner at Cabo Fish Taco and then treated ourselves to dessert from Amelie's French Bakery. As soon as I walked in I was in heaven. There were glass displays full of desserts each calling my name. Fun fact about this bakery is it is open 24 hours a day. No matter what time you get the craving for a fresh pastry, Amelie's will be open to fix your craving.

Fresh corn salsa from Cabo.

This place is very eclectic. They have a chandelier made of small kitchen tools. Next time I'll get a picture of the inside. It was too busy when we went.

Can you guess which dessert belongs to who?

When our friends come into town we have a new place to take our friends:)

Happy Hump Day

This is how I am feeling today. Spring break can't get here fast enough.

No Slip headbands

I have signed up for Team in Training and I am already getting a head start on raising money. Funny, the money is the part that I am more worried about than the actual running 13.1 miles. Head over to my TNT page and see what my first fundraising idea is. I promise your not going to want to miss out on these incredible non moving headbands. If you don't believe me, buy one and let me prove you wrong!
