friday IPhone dump

written by: cyn knight
happy friday kittens!

yeah, it’s that magical time where i take a bunch of random photos from the past week & make a blog post using them…

if you read my last post, SHARING THE JOY , then you know it has been a whirlwind week or so!
but life goes on — even mid buying a house!

we already had snow — not much, BUT snow nonetheless! SO NOT READY FOR THIS!!!!

skylar got her first ever school pictures this week! this was taken of the pic with my phone — but still cute as hell!

cameron ♥

skylar ♥

did i mention we bought a house?

skylar’ preschool class turkey — each kiddo got to decorate their own feather — sky’s is second from the far right!

got this email from rundisney this week — makes it all SO real and SO close!

my UBER picky eater ate SPAGHETTI this week!!!!

LOVING buying new goodies for our NEW HOUSE!!!

went to pick up skylar from school this week and found this cute pilgrim girl instead!

hey did ya know we bought a HOUSE!?!?!?!

running has kind of taken a backseat the past week or so — but i am still getting out there for longer runs and averaging about 12-15 miles a week!

out for a run♥

once the major hustle and bustle from the whole buying a house process simmers down (hopefully by this weekend) we can breathe for a bit until the closing and i can get back to making running a bigger priority!

wedding wise — the invites go out this weekend! i am going flower girl dress shopping this morning for skylar! i have all my flowers chosen and a centerpiece, bridesmaid bouquets, my bouquet and skylar’s flowers chosen as well! and we have one final cake tasting (GROAN!) hopefully this coming monday!
so minus some details — the wedding is coming together nicely!!!

i admit that i have been slacking with T25 as well as my running — T25 has basically come to standstill sadly! and i hate that i let that slide and have no valid reason for doing so other than i didn’t make it a priority and talked myself out of doing it during the times i could.
SUCKS!
and i am kicking myself for it!
my only option is to restart & i am thinking of doing just that!
i just need an extra hour in the day is all — with my half marathon training reaching it’s peak — most of my runs are at least an hour and only increasing!
(yeah, yeah, yeah — making those excuses again! busier people than me manage to do this!)

oh and i am up a few pounds — about 3 to be exact.
i am not stressing it.
far from it.
with my wedding gown fitting perfectly i am okay with maintaining my current weight within a five pound radius!
feels weird to say that — i feel like all i have done for the past two years is try to get smaller, NOT maintain.
and i thought i might feel *weird* about it — but quite the opposite.
it has me rethinking my overall goals.
life is pretty damn great at this weight — and i get to truly LIVE and what’s not to like about that?
and by *live* that doesn’t mean i have thrown caution to the wind totally — but i am allowing myself some freedom here and there!

thankfully i haven’t had any races last weekend or this upcoming one as well. too much going on! but next week i have TWO turkey trots (on thanksgiving morning and the following saturday!) so i am looking forward to that and plan on amping my runs this week!

my business has suffered the most through all of this. its still where it was months ago and that is ALL on me. i just haven’t had my MoJo in place and sadly it will most likely be like this for awhile. i just have too many other things going on…

BUT i am really happy as of late…
those stressers that seemed SO important just a few short weeks ago seem almost silly.
and oddly you would think buying a house would just put me over the edge — but i am elated and totally okay with what i know will be a HUGE transition for us all.

everything is coming together.
the house.
all of us living in one house.
the joy of making OUR HOME ours.
our wedding ♥♥♥
half marathon training.
our trip to disney.
and of course the princess half marathon itself!

i think once march 1st comes and ALL of this is basically behind us — i am going to take a very long nap!
i think i’ve earned it!

peace, love & margaritas bloggy peeps!
