no excuses

i have been an awful blogger, i hate people that dont update and i have been one of those people! i wish i had a good excuse, like oh i am so busy working and spending time with my husband...but nope cant use those! so i have no excuse! so here is what i have been up too, my dad and cynthia came for Labor Day Weekend and we had a great time! eating lots, running (did i mention thats all i feel like i do these days, i will be very happy when this marathon is over) shopping and doing yard work! it was great to have a man around the house for a few days to do all the man chores that i hate doing! like mowing, weed whacking, planting grass, changing air filters, etc! A big shout out to my dad for doing all of that! i wish i had some pictures but i dont bc my dad took all of them on his camera!

then last weekend i went home to indiana for my cousin/friend sarah finchs amazing wedding at lake wawasee. it was so much fun and was an absolutely lovely wedding, i do have a few pictures of that.

so now i am back in NC and having been substitute teaching at Camp Lejeune Schools which is fun and working part time for Dynasplint doing fittings. other than that and running thats all i do! this weekend i will be running 15 miles.....eccck and next weekend i will be running my first half marathon at camp lejeune, so i am logging some serious miles this week.

well thats about it from this front..here are some random pictures from the last few weeks!!

PS Aaron still is doing well and staying very very busy! We will have 3 months under our belts next Thursday (not that i am counting) it will be nice to get over the 4 month hump bc once i have hit that its a downhill slope! i have been able to talk to him a lot recently and the email connection has been good too! As always thanks for the continued prayers for him and the blue knight family, keep it up! I cant wait for him to get home and go back to a normal life! AHHH!!
