Celebrating: Kevin and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary last month. I can't believe how fast 4 years flew by! We kept it super low-key by just going out to dinner at our favorite Mexican spot. We decided not to do gifts because you know, adulting = bills on bills on bills. But of course, Kevin is a sweetheart and brought me home a gorgeous purple orchid (keep your fingers crossed that I don't kill it).
AND I turn the big 3-0 on Sunday! We're having a cook out to celebrate with all of our friends this weekend and I can't wait.
Training For: Our marathon training officially started a few weeks ago and it's kicking my butt already. The race in in October, so we still have a lot of work to do. I'm so thankful that Kevin and I are doing it together, because it makes getting up at 5:00 am to run just a little bit easier when you have someone else doing it with you. If you've ever run a marathon, I'd love any tips you have! Or if you have any suggestions for great songs to add to my running playlist, let me know.
Watching: Most of the shows I typically watch are on break, so I'm pretty much watching everything on HGTV, baseball, or realty tv (specifically Teen Mom and The Challenge). But I don't watch a whole lot of TV in the summer. It's too nice to spend all that time inside.
Photographing: I mean, if you consider snapping a quick pic on my iphone "photographing," then it would be flowers. I love seeing things grown and bloom. Spring and Summer are great for that! I'm slowly making our yard look a little better with plants, flowers, landscaping, etc.
DIYing: I've been on a role with some quick DIY projects around the house. I plan to share some of those soon. The most recent was a quick makeover of an outdoor light, which you may have seen on my Instagram.
Listening To: I've been to a few concerts this summer (Birthday Bash, Eric Church, and Tim & Faith) and hope to catch a few more before winter gets here.
And that pretty much sums up my life over the past few months: running, yard/house work, and concerts. Now if only I could update on a more regular basis :)
Updating on a regular basis is hard! Haha I always struggle! Happy anniversary, by the way! 4 years is awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhat marathon are you training for?! I'm doing Chicago in October, so my training is in full swing! I'd love an accountability buddy!
Happy Anniversary! I love seeing all of the pictures of your flowers, but they're making me really jealous. It's so hot in Phoenix right now that all of my flowers are drying up and dying.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary AND happy birthday!!! Love your flower photography - beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAww Happy anniversary!! I love that first photo. Also, taking photos of flowers is my favorite - maybe it's because they don't move ;)
