It seems the blogging world loves to play a good game of tag. I’ve received two tags in the past few weeks. So, for those of you looking for some Sunday reading here is way more than you could possibly want to know about little ol' me!!
Busy Mamas tagged me over a week ago with this Meme… (Sorry Busy Mamas for taking so long to respond)!
Think back on the last 15 years of your life.
When Scott and I were engaged everyone was reading this book. While we never sat down and read the book we did peruse the chapter headings to determine what the 5 love languages were and it didn’t take long for us to figure out which love language each of us spoke. We will both tell you that this is the best marriage book we ever didn’t read. The concepts in this book have truly helped our marriage.
Thanks so much for your encouragement on Monday. I am happy to say that on Tuesday I ran 6 miles!! My dear husband has given me the gift of 6 songs to download to my MP3 player as an encouragement for completing this goal and to help me as I strive to make it the next 4 miles in the next 3 weeks. Here’s where you come in…
I need your suggestions for great running songs.
Scott and I see eye to eye on most things. When it comes to parenting though, we have one major disagreement…

I think they are cute and cuddly and so adorable.
Scott thinks they are impractical and a complete waste of time. "Why do we need to change them just to sleep," He asks.
I have a hard time coming up with a real compelling reason.
"Because they look so cute in them," is typically my reply.
I was not an athlete growing up. I quit softball half way through my first season when I was 8 telling my dad, “I hate it. You get all sweaty and dirty and stuff!” (The fact that I had gotten hit in the face twice with a softball didn’t help either).
In eighth grade I found myself at a new school and decided to play lacrosse. My friends were all playing and it seemed like fun.

Anyone want to guess what this picture shows….
That is the roof of our "white" Ford Escape. I guess you could say its been awhile since car washing made it to the top of the to-do list. You know it’s time to go it again when your kid hears the term ‘car wash’ and responds with a giggle, "You can’t wash cars! That’s silly!" Ummm….yea…the last time we washed our car this is what my son looked like.
Updated…for those those that asked Movie Review Below
I’m going on a hot date tonight with my hubby and I am SO excited!! My legs are shaved, eye brows plucked, and I’m even going to wear a skirt and put on make up!! Perhaps I’ll even add a little jewelry for sparkle!!
This time we aren’t going to Toys R Us! I got free movie tickets at the grocery store earlier this summer so thanks to Sarah’s raving review, we’re going to see the new Batman Movie and eating dinner too (one where we don’t have to cut food into tiny pieces, sop up spilled milk, AND we can even have a complete conversation)!
I had a great post written "in my head" Saturday morning. I was setting off to do a 6 mile run. It would have been the longest run I had ever done in my life. Before training for the Annapolis 10 Mile that I am working towards at the end of the summer, the farthest I had run was a 5K (3.1 miles) So, this would have been about twice that.
There were a few blogs I read regularly this winter before I started blogging myself. One of these is Confessions of a CF Husband. Nate and his wife Tricia have had an incredible year, filled with many scary and uncertain moments. It is obvious to me from reading their blogs that they love the Lord and they truly trust in His sovereign will for their lives. It is both humbling and inspiring to read about their journey.
