MIA

I'm sorry that I have been somewhat MIA over the past few days.

I've been busy making preparations for our trip to the Dominican Republic!!!

We leave early Saturday morning and there is still much to be done before we go.

It has been difficult to write anything of substance when my mind is on white sandy beaches, sapphire seas, palm trees, suntan lotion, and an unlimited supply of rest and relaxation. 

Relaxation.

Just what I've been needing!

So I hope that you all can withstand my absence for a little while longer...

I promise to take lots of pictures and post them upon our return!

Until then...

have a great week and I'll see you when I get back!

Oh! How Pinteresting

As many of you know, my husband and I are currently training to run our first half marathon in October.

So... I thought that it would be fitting to share with you some of the fitness inspirations that I have found via Pinterest that are assisting me in getting into tip top shape for our upcoming race!
