Strip at Night (The Marathon)

We are quickly approaching Dec 2, which means....My 2nd 1/2 marathon is coming up!! This will be my 2nd half marathon in 6 months I might add...:-) After we ran the Rock N Roll San Diego half in June, I was in a lot of pain, could barely walk for a week, but somehow had a great deal of excitement and eagerness to get my run on again! What better place to do this than Las Vegas?! So Andy and I signed up for the Rock N Roll Las Vegas Marathon series, and will be running our 13.1 miles on the strip...at night!  My Dad ran with us last time and will be running this time again, along with my sister Marisa and my Mom, who just had knee surgery last week...so we're crossing our fingers for her:-) We've officially started training and the countdown has begun!!

 

Can't wait for our next one of these!!

Palm Springs Vacation

We recently enjoyed a very relaxing family vacation in Palm Springs! We planned this last minute vacation mainly because my dear husband has been working his behind off for the past couple of months, extra long days, late nights and early mornings to complete Business Plan. This trip was much needed for him...and a little break from reality was nice for me too!! We stayed in an incredible home for 4 days. By day two, Andy and I seriously wanted to buy it! (It IS on the market!;-) I can definitely see myself retiring in a place like this one day. One entire wall of the house opened up completely to the beautiful backyard with a pool, spa, an outdoor shower and tons of grassy play areas! We spent every day swimming with our little ones and they had SO much fun, it was a perfect family vacation♥
