Blah Blah Blogging












My children are growing up before my eyes.. crazy. I had to bust out sister to document Beck being turned around in his car seat yesterday and ended up just watching him walk around outside. Yesterday was so fun getting together with some girls. What is it about hanging out with friends and feeling the oneness that we are all going through the same things in life. I love people that are real and aren't afraid to talk about their "ski slopes" or messy houses. Thank you thank you for making all my imperfections seem less perfect and more normal. But at the same time inspiring me to get up so early and train for half marathon. There is a difference between being motivating and being bragful (not a word, until now!) I mean who wants a friend who is always trying to portray perfection and a life that no one would really enjoy or live up to? Not me. I love friends that are real and put true perspective on life. Life is hard and confusing and motivating at times and unmotivating at other times. So I am lucky to have such a vast array of people in my life that help me keep me grounded and also give me something to live up to.

That picture of Piper almost makes you believe how innocent she could be....... MMM.. pictures can sure twist reality. I love you though Pipe, you are hilarious and my peanut is still an angel baby.

P.S. I am way excited for dinner group tonight. Probably too excited, it's been weeks since I have done something on my own without children besides school and pictures. So yeah!! More great gals to converse with.

It's so great to have friends that get up with you and run in the morning, training isn't worth it without that!

Everyone has "ski slopes" girly! Just remember when the ski slope sends ya flying you've got people to catch you :) and then laugh/cry about it with! Hugs!

It was way fun to get together, I am glad that I'm not the only one with "ski slopes" too:) After Brandon got home he told me how cute he thought Piper was!
