go big blue!

this past weekend was one of those that you hope doesn't end..or at least slows down. there wasn't anything really special going on...just had the whole weekend to do what we wanted and the weather was perfect. so we started by running that 5k. ouch. ouch. but i did alright...esp. for not training and pushing hud plus that stroller. i did run/walk but mostly ran..surprisingly. either way it got us moving bright and early saturday morning.

me and hud pre-race

 

the family post-race..hudson fell asleep after the first mile, but really enjoyed the whole experience..i guess as much as a 5month old could.

the rest of the day was spent relaxing...and then cheering for the CATS at our good friend's house which was entertaining because he is a big vols fan and promised to cheer for uk! sunday was once of my favorite mornings [that we have had in a while] mainly because it reminded me of being at my mimi + popo's house. hudson and i slept in till 9:45am, and i woke up to the smell of fresh hot coffee. mr. b, hudson, and i [ok..not really hudson] enjoyed coffee on our veranda with a perfect breeze and hint of summer. later that day we ate out and ventured to the mall. big mistake. i have been trying really hard, unsuccessfully now, to not shop for clothes that i don't need so i can get some of the bigger projects done around the house. well, i am sorry but all of the bright vibrant colors sucked me in. everything from dresses, jeans, tees, and underarmor workout gear [can i do pilates and yoga in running shorts?seriously there was a pair that about convinced me to become a runner]...i am glad that i really don't like the paducah mall. i imagine our pocketbook would have been in a world of hurt had i been in memphis, lexington, or nashville. the gap is the main store i go to at this mall. i did alright and managed to walk away with these..all at the gap

today, i met a former student for coffee. it was fun catching up and hearing about her success in the field and in life. i am so proud of her! here is melissa with hudson. he was smitten

then after a short trip to see dad and work deliver lunch we headed to lowes to buy the rest of the supplies for the said bench project i had promised yall. i swear it is getting done this week. i am really excited about it. but it will have to wait today/tonight because we are focused on the championship game! go UK!

talk soon friends
