Wedding #2. It was today, five years ago, that I said ‘I do’ to my best friend. That worked so well, we decided to do it again in a drive-thru in Vegas. Happy Anniversary, my love.

Since the picture above was not taken by me and would therefore be cheating, here is a shot of the other happy event during our trip to Vegas: meeting my DH’s long-lost brother 🙂

Very Narrow Focus Vanilla Chai Tea

Tea #2 from Thyme for Tea/Tearific Spices, a vanilla chai black tea blend. A nice blend with just the right amount of vanilla and spice to make it interesting.

The look of determination

Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing our local running store’s weekly fun run. This is my own dear runner. Although he might disagree with me, I think He’s fast. I know zippedy-squat about lap times, but 6:17 for a mile sounds pretty fast to me.

If you’re in the Miami area and have any desire at all to either run, walk, or support a great local business, check out iRun. Everyone that works there is really passionate about what they do and has tons of knowledge on the subject. iRun sells anything you could possibly want for running, walking, etc. Need new running shoes? Have no idea what you need in an athletic shoe and what the different types of shoes are supposed to do? Go see the guys at iRun. They have knowledge and are more than willing to share!

More run pics coming soon.

Today, I finally at long last finished my #2 batch of baby preparedness bundles for the two upcoming girls in my life. Included: diaper bag with 1 large, 1 medium and 2 small exterior and 1 interior zipper pockets; changing pad with zipper pouch; wipes case; and baby sling. This batch was much harder to get through than last early fall’s bundles for boys. I’m thinking it was a combo of knowing just how much work was ahead, finding time to wedge sewing into my busier schedule, and my sewing machine acting up pretty much continually throughout the project.
