Me and My Groom, February 10th, 1990 Yes, that is a ridiculously bold name. But I thought “The First Installment On My Journey to Look Better in a Swimsuit for my 25th Wedding Anniversary Trip*” was a little long and obnoxious so I went with something simpler;). I’m not actually sure if I’ll loose any […]
We’re Back! Overview 2014 Disney World Marathon Weekend!
We got back Monday afternoon and I hit the ground running at work, so forgive me for taking so long to check back in. We had a (mostly) great weekend and we’re both still SO GLAD we went because our team for Rally Foundation raised almost $10,000 for childhood cancer research and we have zero […]

Easily broken.” Thank you, Mary Poppins. But maybe, just maybe, this is the year you put an end to the excuses. […]
My Running Year in Review and A Book Review and Give Away!
