My dad misses my blog posts, so here you go, this one is for you and mom!! :):) What a great weekend visiting my parents in Southwest VA. We left on Friday and just got back yesterday. I definitely wanted to stay and enjoy it longer! :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On Saturday, we went to Mabry Mill for Breakfast and then walked around some. :) After that we visited Chateau Morrisette. What a gorgeous winery. I definitely want to go back there. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
After leaving the winery, we drove down to Buffalo Mountain and hiked to the top. It was about a mile hike. It was definitely worth seeing the beautiful view at the end. So pretty!</div>

On Sunday, my mom and I did some shopping down in Hillsville, VA (Flea-Market/Yard Sale shopping). I always enjoy hitting the yard sales! :) Esp. on Memorial day and Labor Day weekend! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we got back from shopping I was determined to get some kayaking in on the New River. </div>

I really can't believe I haven't blogged in about a half a year!!!! Lots has happened in the last 6 months. Here is my attempt to update everyone! :) Ever since google got rid of google reader I stopped blogging and I stopped reading blogs as well. It used to be one of my fav things to do! :) Once I find something to replace "google reader" hopefully my love for blogging will come back!<br />

This past weekend Scott and I drove down to my parents for a weekend of celebration! My sis and her boyfriend Kris came down too! :) My parent's 35th Wedding Anniversary was on Saturday. We started off the day going out to brunch at a place called Draper Mercantile. We skipped lunch and later on that evening we treated my parents to dinner at a new place none of us had ever been to in Radford, VA. The place we went to was called "The River Company and Brewery". I was very pleased with the restaurant and glad we chose it! I snapped this pic of my parents and I love it! :) </div>

Luckily Mother's Day landed on the Sunday after my parent's anniversary so I was able to spend part of the morning with my mama before we had to head back!! :) Hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day Mom! :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I always enjoy visits with my parents, I always wish they could be longer though!! :) Look at this pic I took before we left. I thought it was appropriate that I was able to take a pic like this on Mother's Day! Makes me smile....</div>

Back on April 1st I turned the big 3-0! My husband Scott and my sister Carla helped plan a birthday celebration with some of my closest friends! :) I am finally blogging about it, lol. We got birthday cupcakes from one of my fav grocery stores "Wegmans". Scott got me some Tory Burch Reva Flats (my first pair) and a new Longchamp Purse. I also got some cash/gift cards and wine which are always enjoyable!!!! Can't wait to see what's in store for my next 30 years!</div>

So this whole past month I was thinking I had already published a blog post wishing my wonderful hubby a "Happy 39th Birthday". Well.....yeah, I just realized I had never published the post like I thought I had. That's what happens when you don't blog as often as you used to I guess. We had a great day on his birthday, I surprised him with take-out from one of our fav restaurants "Firebirds Wood-Fired Grill" and we had a nice relaxing evening with each other. </div>

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! :) I was lucky enough to have all my family in town, and had a great time with them!

I made my normal peanut butter chocolate buckeyes that I do every Christmas. They are so yummy. My grandma used to make them every Christmas, and I am glad that I can now carry on her tradition.</div>

First off....don't know why I am in such a blogging funk! :) Haven't been blogging nearly as much as I used to, hopefully it will pass! Can't believe it's already Mid-October! It will be Christmas before you know it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This past weekend I kept myself pretty busy! :) Saturday morning I rode with my high-school friend Lindsey and her mom to my friend Melissa's baby shower! (Linds was in town from NC, it was nice to see her and her fam!) The shower was super cute!! :) Glad I was able to make it...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After I got back home, the hubby and I decided we were going to have a date night....We wanted to go see a movie...It was a toss up between "Sinister" or "Taken 2". We finally decided on Taken 2 and I am glad we did, it was an awesome movie! :) After that we went out to dinner at our favorite restaurant "Firebirds". Yummmm! :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On Sunday, I ran a 5K that was taking place in the county. I gotta say...since running the Half-Marathon back in Sept. I have not had the desire to run...I kind of just wanted a little break...so this run was the 1st one I had signed up for since the half. 3.1 miles was a breeze compared to 13.1. I think I will stick with the 5K's for a while, lol.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Sunday afternoon, I went to the pumpkin patch, needed to spruce up the front porch a little...</div>

Sunday Morning I woke up super early, and made it over to where the race started (about an hour early) which is fine by me, better to be early than late, right?! The race started, and it was definitely tough. The humidity was awful! </div>

This half-marathon was my second one. I decided VERY last minute back in May that I was going to try and do the Marine Corps Historic Half. My finish time for that race was 2:44:12. I really wanted to try and beat my time....and I was sooo close. I was dissapointed that I wasn't able to. The humidity really took a toll. </div>

oh, and after I finished the race, I got to see one of my best friends from college (ZTA Sister and bridesmaid in my wedding) Her and her parents were there at the finish line and I was sooo happy to see them! :) It had been over a year and a half (maybe even longer) since I had last seen them all! <br />
<br />
All in all, it was a great weekend! :) I got to complete my first Rock N Roll Half Marathon! Yay! :) </div>

Can't believe the Rock N Roll Half Marathon in VA Beach is right around the corner....It seems like just yesterday when the girls convinced me to sign up for it! :) I am very anxious/excited for the day to finally get here. It will be my first Rock N Roll Half Marathon. I hear they are a lot of fun! :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So all of us girls have decided we are going to have a "Yellow & Pink" outfit theme.....I have bought all my goodies already....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a pic of my outfit</div>

And of course....why not get a new pair of shoes to match! :) The store didn't have my size, so I had to order them online instead. They should be arriving any day now and I am super excited! :) These are BY FAR my favorite purchase! I can't even remember the last time I bought myself a new pair of running shoes. It's been a while. I love that they are ALL HOT PINK! :)</div>

This was taken last week at my parents house....I am surprised I was able to get a good pic, here lately Roxy realizes that whenever she sees my iPad or my iPhone, a photo-shoot is beginning and she will quickly jump off the couch or turn her head, LOL. :) </div>Simply Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15587311266031517250noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834504483068621945.post-14347808362810774952012-07-23T06:03:00.002-04:002012-07-23T06:03:30.931-04:00Check out our new shed....<div style="text-align: center;">

Wow....I can't believe it's been a WHOLE month since I posted last, wow! Not too many exciting things to blog about this past month I guess, haha...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
...but now that the hubby and I both had off work ALL last week...I have lots to blog about now! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The hubby and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary on July 17th! :) Last year we went to the beach, this year we decided we were going to rent a cabin. We went to Mountain Lake (One of the locations where Dirty Dancing was filmed) Very relaxing.... I joked with Scott that we could even get "private dance lessons". It was a no-go, haha. </div>

The morning before we arrived at Mountain Lake, my parents joined us and we went hiking to a local waterfall (The Cascades). It's about a 2 mile hike out, it's definitely worth the hike! :) I hadn't been there in years, so it was nice to go back. </div>

We had such a relaxing week! It went by WAYYYY to fast! We got to spend a lot of time with my parents too which I always enjoy! :) With them being about 4 1/2 hours away from us...I treasure every minute I get to see them! :) </div>

I keep seeing these "Favorite Things Parties" all over Pinterest, and each time I do, it makes me want to try and organize one of my own! :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it would be an awesome "Girl's Night Idea"</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the idea behind the whole party:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
*You have a hostess, who would be MUAH in this case! :) She would provide lots and lots of fun drinks & martinis ofcourse!<br />
*You invite a bunch of the girls over to the house. (Everyone can bring their favorite dish/appetizer)<br />
*Each girl will bring their favorite item, but they would bring 3 of them. (I have noticed this number can vary depending on what you personally want to do)<br />
*A price limit will be set on your gifts...say $10.00 to $15.00 or so, so each person is looking at spending about $30.00 to $45.00 dollars total. <br />
*The girls will bring over their gifts. I will set up a nice table, where all the gifts can be displayed. I would also pre-make bags for each guest so they have something to put all their favorite items in! <br />
*Each guest will take turns, going to the table and picking out a favorite item they want to take home! Everyone will do this 3 times, so when you leave, you have 3 favorite things you will be able to take home in your bags! :) <br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No matter how many people end of coming, if each person brings 3 items, everyone should be able to go home with 3 items, it will always come out that way! :) The other great thing about this whole party idea is that you can change all the numbers around and it still works. If you have everyone bring 10 gifts each, everyone will go home with 10 gifts. Also, you can lower the cost of the favorite items as well. If you are bringing 10 of the same item, you may want to lower the cost to $5.00 an item, etc... So many different possibilities! </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am thinking this would be a great idea for around the holidays, instead of a Christmas Party, you could just do a party like this! :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The "Sunny Side Up" Blog was where I saw this awesome idea! :) Click <a href="http://www.thesunnysideupblog.com/2011/12/favorite-things-2011.html">HERE</a> to visit her page to read more about the party she threw, I am sharing a pic from her blog too, it helps give you an idea of how everything comes together. :) I am looking forward to when I am able to do this myself! </div>

A few weekends ago, while I was running around the neighborhood (training for the Half Marathon I just signed up for in Sept.) I decided that I was going to try and run 13.1 miles, since it was really nice out on that paticular day. I just wanted to see if I could do it. (My training plan only had me doing around 6 miles on that day) I was so happy when I actually was able to complete those 13.1 miles. It was such a great feeling.....and then that's where THIS race popped into my head. I kept telling myself, I ran 13.1 miles a few weeks ago, I can do it again! </div>

I called up my friend Angie, who had been signed up for this run for a while and I asked her if I could meet up with her so we could ride over together. She said SURE! :) So I woke up bright and early and drove up to her house. Her husband Chad drove us over there and dropped us off. I was super nervous because I had never ever attempted a half marathon before. 5Ks, I had been in plenty, but nothing farther than that. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The race started at 7:00AM, and it took me about 2 hours and 44 minutes to complete it. I was very happy with my time, I would have been happy with any time though, just as long as I could say that I completed the race! :) </div>

I can't stopped staring at my "medal" hehe... I am really looking forward to the Rock N Roll Half Marathon that I am doing in Sept. I have proved to myself that I can accomplish a half and now I am super excited for the next one! :) </div>
