babysister is now 10 1/2 months old and has started walking! she talks a little and has finally gotten some teeth. :-)

 

 

 

so... this week i started training for a 5K. i tried to start running several months ago, but just wasn't motivated enough. now i am, cause theirs a race in January and i'm going to run it!! does you run?

 

 

fall. don't you love this time of year? the pecans are starting to fall from the tree tops, it actually rained on Sunday, and i wear sweaters and skinny jeans all the time. the next thing i can't wait for: fires in the wood stove!

 

okay, i'm off. happy tuesday!!!!!!!!

princess bowling

last week some of my friends and i were invited by our friend Katie to go bowling with her bible study group. bowling, it sounded innocent enough. :-) well, she said we had to dress as princesses or nerds. fun!!! i went shopping at some thrift stores to try and find a princess dress, but was unsuccessful. i found a pretty dress at Target though! we all had a great time, and went out to ice cream afterwards. thank you Katie for inviting me!

 
mom put my hair in foam curlers. right before i had to leave she took them out. this is my "mom!!! i look like a poodle! i have to leave in five minutes! fix this!!" face. ;-)

 

 
this is me and the princesses and nerd we picked up on the way to the bowling alley. from left to right: Faith, Moriah, Me, and Pansy.

 

 
we found this goofy looking girl (on the left) and her sweet sister (on the right) at the bowling alley. they looked kinda like nerds so we let them bowl with us. just kidding! these are my dear friends Em and Lu. :-)

 

 

i love this photo of Faith!

 

 

 
bowling shoes are awesome! oh, and Pansy bowled bare foot! she is one courageous girl. :-)

Hey, I had planned to

Hey, I had planned to post about going bowling dressed as a princess today but things came up and here we are at the end of another day. So, no photos tonight, but tomorrow for sure!

I'm sorry about the slightly scary photo. I used one of Picnik's halloween effects called "Scary Movie". I thought it looked cool, but I think it weirded some of you out. Sorry!! :-D

Good night!
