It's All About the People

Just a quick update today since I have a game of Hello Kitty Trouble that I must attend! 

I have 2 days back at work under my belt. Like most of my work days they FLEW by. Honestly, it felt great! Not the work part...we could all do without that I suppose but I realized how amazing the people I work with are. I honestly can't remember the last time I laughed so hard or so much. I am so lucky that I work with such a great group of people that make coming to work fun. 

I'm feeling extra blessed about some other people in my life too. I am so thankful that Tyler and I get to spend our weekend mornings with Ava. We are lucky that we have that special family time together where we are not running out the door to work and school. Those mornings are what I always envisioned they'd be for my family. We get real breakfast food like pancakes (with chocolate and/or vanilla chips of course) or cinnamon rolls. Tyler is usually singing in some obnoxiously loud voice to make us giggle (and he always does!) and sometimes we even have dance parties. I know that these moments mean a lot to me and I hope they are some of the things that Ava remembers when she's my age.

In other news, I registered for a half marathon in June. I haven't ran more than 8 miles since college. I am not sure what came over me. A co-worker sent an email around saying he was going to sign up and wondered if anyone else wanted to join. Without too much thought, I registered. WOW are those registration fees expensive! So I'm supposed to PAY someone so that I can train for 12+ weeks and run for 2+ hours?! Well at least my hard earned money will get me excruciatingly sore muscles and a T-shirt. Sarcasm aside, I think this goal will be really good for me. I've needed so sort of motivation so I'm hoping this will do the trick!

Well, game time! Then time to make some goodies for the BIG GAME tomorrow! Can't wait! Go PACK!
