13.1 HERE I COME!

Well, so much for keeping up with my posts for 2011 ... From here out, I'm trying again! My new start this time??? I'm going to train for a half-marathon, 13.1 here I come! I downloaded a training schedule and started today. Hopefully I can keep with it and lose some weight in the process. Jason is training for a mini-triathalon so I should at least be able to do this ... right?? The most I have ever done is a 10k (a little over 6 miles) and that was in 2004. I'll keep you posted (I'll try at least!).

What else is new? One of my best friends, Katie (Bob!),

is getting married in 33 days - woo hoo!! She had her first shower last weekend, has another one this coming weekend AND THEN my Mom and I are throwing her a tea party the weekend after that - it's all so exciting. It definitely takes me back to my wedding in 2008, all the fun festivities with friends and family.


ALSO, I have taken on knitting again. My first project? Baby booties ... I have the never-ending scarf I've been working on forever but the newest venture is the booties. It's a little harder than I thought it would be but I would really like to start knitting more and more! Hopefully I get really good and I can sell some to future mommies : )

I've saved the BIGGEST NEWS for last. This past weekend my husband, Jason, decided to join our Church by committing his life to Jesus Christ. He'll be getting baptised some time soon and I could not be more excited! I cannot even begin to explain what a huge blessing this is for our marriage. So happy for you Jason!! We have so many incredible times ahead.
