12 minutes to my favorite day of the week!

hey hey hey let the adventures begin!

1st adventure took place Saturday, riverbank run!! Woot woot made my goal!! One of my favorite moments seeing em on the side road running with her coffee in her hand, cheering!! Priceless! or drinking the power aid in the omelet shop parking lot!! yumm to the omelet shop!! fun day with family and friends!






2nd adventure took place this evening. First bike outing with em! Got the bikes out of the garage and thought maybe the tires were a little soft, but weren’t total sure! Yelp, jeff informed use that they had about 20% of the air needed, oppsss! So he pumped them up and we were off on our way to reeds lake. New route down diamond, avoided the construction! Still came upon some steep hills! Let me tell you, I may be able to run 15 miles but biking up hills is tough! So anyway we continue on our adventure and reach the papa johns in east town and em all sudden goes, me pedals wont move!! I try to fiddle with the chain and nothing. Sooo what do we do--- have to walk with the bikes. Back track our path well traveled! Neither of us have our cell phones, so we decide to go to matts house. Pit stop at the park to do a little to do a little swinging! Yelp matt wasn’t home, so next thought lan’s house! Yelp lan wasn’t home but his roommate was and he totally knew how to fix the bike!! So we were back at it again!!! our little adventure turned out to be about two hours! But we made it back in time for dancing and nails! Bring on the summer and more adventures. note to self for future--- cell phone in case of emergency!

are you craving a taco?

Hola mi amigas!
Happy cinco de mayo!

Today I celebrated by having a taco [well a tortilla shell with lettuce and salsa on it] Today I celebrated by texting betsy in Spanish and being able to read her Spanish filled response. Today I celebrated by googling grand rapids Mexican restaurant deals for casey at work.
The list above is enough celebrating!

Side note: the Arlington home has a bird nest on the front porch. We [gwen and i] pulled a bar stool to peak inside of it, there are three blue eggs. I do hope we get little birdies soon!

Hey is this a bachelorette party?

[what gave you that idea the cheesy veil or the bright pink sash with bachelorette written on it!] gotta love people and their conversation starters!

There is something about roadtripping with betsy. Never feel nervous about her driving skills, it is inevitable that we will stop at least three times, [at least one at mcdizzles] and guaranteed to get slap happy!

This road trip was bachelorette weekend:
Friday night was girly night. Of course we had to watch the new episode of yes to the dress and check out lauras bra [yup felt like chicken breasts! Betsy was enamored by the box!]



Saturday: one last long run [bring on RBR and indy mini], errands, the start of wedding favors, then the festivities began.
1st stop. Winery for a tour and tasting. 2nd stop. Barcelona tapas for dinner, gifts, favors, and arnies cake! 3rd stop. howl at the moon/the streets of downtown indy. The list of lauras tasks was to begin…so funny!! Please review the censored version of the pictures [jk we are good girls!]







Sunday: the trek home. Only one explosion at the mcdizzles worker per betsy at kokamo, gesh who would have thought that it would take 10 minutes to make an egg mcmuffin! We sure didn’t and b let them know! You go girl. Still three stops and we home by 3! Whirl wind weekend. Not lots of sleep but good time!

Next time I see laur, it will be wedding weekend! What stands between me and that event??
1.finish wedding favors
2.write speech
3.learn how to slow dance [volunteers? Betsy? Why thank you and since I am calling you out on my blog, you best not disappoint my readers of a good story!]

PS: i heart sneaking up behind large men with ochocinco wear!
