Some Pictures

Here are some pictures from the last month.

Kinsley got to spend the day with Benjamin. They had so much fun. We went to the park and then chick-fil-a for lunch.

My Mom got a book with really cool cupcakes reciepes in it. So I tried to do the corn on the cob one. I think it turned out good. They really did look like corn on the cob.

Kinsley, Eli, and Benjamin(no clue who the other girl is).

I want to run again.

I used to run all of the time. Before I got married I was in the best shape I have ever been in. Due to running. Now 6 years later..... Well lets just say I need to lose a few pounds. So I have been just a little frustrated lately. I have been trying to get back into shape. And nothing is happening. I decided I need to start running again. I want to feel that high again when you are running. I want to feel like I can run forever, like I used to. (Runners out there you know what I am talking about.) So this is the game plan. I need to run in races to help me stay motivated. I have a race scheduled every month starting with June. And the goal is to be able to do a half marathon by November. I am posting this on my blog because I don't want to back down from this. I seem to always find reasons why I need to not take care of me. I think when you get married and have children, women start putting everything ahead of themselves. "We don't want to be selfish." But you know what it is ok to want to do something for yourself. I have an awesome husband that supports me, so NO more excuses from me. The race I am running in June, is the Riverbend 10k. The races that I have done in the past have only been 3-5 miles. So 6.2 miles will be fun. Wish me luck..I can't wait...

A Wife and A Momma

Yesterday I got to celebrate Mother's Day and my 6 year anniversary. I am truly the luckiest person alive. I married my best friend and I have a wonderful daughter. The past 6 years have been what I have always dreamed of. I love Chris with all of my heart. Kinsley has brought so much joy into my life. I love her so much. Yesterday was wonderful.

I am so excited...

For the ones that don't know... We are going to build a house!!!! I can't tell you how happy I am . I think we have been very patient(renting for 6 years). I feel like it was a quick decision. But it is a great one. We are getting a great deal and I am getting everything I want. The floor plan is so cute and big. No pictures yet but I will get them as soon as they start. Which should be in the next 3 weeks. As soon as all of the permits are in order. Yesterday Chris and I signed the contract with the builder. I feel stressed but very happy. So we should be in a house by Thanksgiving at the latest. :) We are building in the neighborhood, White Oak Plantation. For the ones that live out here it is the neighborhood where Ryan and Whitney live in. Love the house and the neighborhood. So I am off to start to look at colors, stones, flooring, and everything eles that needs a decision. That part I think is going to be overwhelming. But it will be worth it. I am so EXCITED!!!!!
