Another relaxing weekend coming up!

I'm hoping to have another relaxing weekend like we did last weekend! It will be the last one for a while between football, half marathons, beach trips, weddings, etc. Tonight we're going to try out Piccolo, the new tappas lounge at the Hotel, then get some dinner. Tomorrow morning I've got to run 9 miles then I have NOTHING to do the rest of the day. Should be glorious:)

Tomorrow night I'm looking forward to seeing Tim Brantley at The Bar! Mary P and Lyndsay have a little crush on this guy so I'm excited to see him play! I think we're going to do a little girls dinner first:)

I'm kinda hoping it will rain on Sunday. Not for any other reason than it might force me to hang around the house and rest!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Toodles!

Happy to Report...

That we had a relaxing weekend at home!! Not really much to blog about b/c we didn't really do much, and it was fabulous! Dinner and a drink at the bar Friday night, asleep by 10. Saturday morning 12 mile run, haircut, lunch at Amsterdam, nap, dinner at Fukai Manor, asleep by 11. Sunday morning house cleaning bonanza, coffee shop, Target, laundry, nap, dinner at Durango, True Blood. Throw in some biking for Philip and there you have it! A lovely weekend in Opelika. Add in the amazing weather we had yesterday and it was close to perfect. As soon as we woke up yesterday morning, Philip had the AC turned off and all our windows open. I loved it!!

Toodles!

Shoot the Hooch!

We had a great time in Atlanta visiting the Bradford's this weekend! Philip and I got up early Friday morning and did our long run (11 miles!) so we wouldn't have to do it over the weekend. After work, we hit the road to the ATL!

Friday night we ate at JCT Kitchen. It was sooo good!!! After dinner, we went to the bar upstairs and had a drink and listened to the live music. The restaurant is in a neat, warehouse district where a lot of old factories & buildings are being renovated as stores, restaurants, lofts, etc.

Saturday morning, we got up and ran around getting supplies for our Shoot the Hooch adventure! I had never been tubing before and it was a blast! We tried to buy our own floats to use but everywhere was sold out so we had to rent some:( But Beth used her mad negotiating skillz and got us a free tube for our cooler:) It took about 3 hours from start to finish. We stopped at one point and "beached" our tubes to eat our lunch. It was quite a scene. After our river adventure, we were all pretty wiped so we just went back to their house and lounged around for the rest of the evening. Tyler used his grill skillz and cooked us some amazing sausage and a pork tenderloin. It was so yummy!!

Sunday morning we ate a late breakfast at West Egg, ran to Lenox then headed down to Eufaula to pick up Charlie and have dinner with my parents.

We always have such a great time with Beth & Tyler and this weekend was no different!!! Hopefully we'll get to see them soon at the first Auburn game!

Toodles!

My Lame Attempt to Party Like It's 1999:)

The Boyzz Spouses- Leah, Katie and Forrest
Me and Kristin- her class reunion was Saturday night too!
My most favorite boy ever!! Me & David
At our pre-reunion gathering at Dram
Our pre-pre reunion drink at Ross Bridge

What a crazy weekend!!! Friday night, we went to Panera for dinner and to see Funny People with Lynz, Hiro and Mary. It was a pretty good movie. Not what I expected and really long! But good, none the less.

Saturday morning we were up bright and early for another 10 mile run. Damn, I'm starting to get tired of those! Then we hopped in the car and headed to Birmingham.

First stop in Birmingham was, drum roll please, Rojo! We met up with Elmer, Tony, Britney, Scott & Marianne(who just found out they're having a boy!!) for lunch and had a blast. Then I went with Britney to check out our bridesmaid's dresses for the wedding. They are so cute!!! And chocolate brown, my fav!!

Then we headed over to Ross Bridge to check in. We tried to lie by the pool but it started raining so we opted for a daquiri on our balcony followed by a nap!

Saturday night was my 10 year reunion! We met the girls & hubbies at Dram for a pre-reunion drink then we headed over to Workplay for the reunion. It was a blast! There was a good number of people there so it was a little hard to speak to everyone! I'm so glad we went!

Sunday morning treated ourselves to a massage then lounged by the pool! It was a little anniversary present to each other and it was great!!!

We went up to the Fukai's for dinner and True Blood but I didn't make it to TB. I was so tired that we left before the show and I was alseep by 8:30! It was great:)

Hope everyone has a great week!

Toodles!

#2

I've gotta run 10 miles again tomorrow:( But the bright side is that once it's over, I get to go to Birmingham and eat lunch at Rojo!!!! Hooray!!! Then, tomorrow night is my 10 year reunion at Workplay. I guess I am a nerd b/c I'm actually excited about it!

Or maybe I'm excited about spending the night at Ross Bridge and getting a massage on Sunday! Hmmm....could be that too....

Have a great weekend everyone!

Toodles!

Happy Anniversary to Us!

Today is our 3rd anniversary! I can't believe it! It's gone by soooo fast! It's been a great 3 years with lots of change but it's also been so much fun! I love you very much hubbie!!!

Success!

10 mile run on Saturday was a success!! I was mostly worried about my knee but it felt good the whole time, so I was relieved! It's felt pretty good throughout this whole training schedule so far which worries me a little. I feel like it's gonna give me fits at some point. Probably the morning I'm supposed to run 12 or the day of the race! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that doesn't happen!!!
