In the midst of insanity!


So, we are in the middle of one crazy month! Every weekend of June shall be spent at some point in the Atlanta airport, which could try a saint's patience! But the destinations are great! The first weekend we spent in Rhode Island visiting with family and meeting the newest addition: my baby cousin, Sarah Elizabeth! Then, on to Philly the following weekend for Mike's cousin's wedding. Fly in Saturday morning, fly back Sunday evening... whew! And now, we are anxiously awaiting our vacation cruise!! Saturday morning we will fly to San Juan, PR and embark on our Southern Caribbean cruise on Sunday for a glorious week of relaxation and fun with good friends! 

Countdown to NYC Triathlon: 5 weeks!!!

Long time no write!




Well, it's been awhile as you can see from when I last posted. We have a had a busy year thus far! Mike and I completed our first marathon in March. If you had asked me at mile 22 if I would ever do another marathon, I would have most likely shot you a dirty look (because I had no energy to talk). But once I finished, I started thinking about the next one I would do... way down the road!! Right now we are focused on training for triathlon season. We've cut back on the quantity of races this year, but definitely not the quality! I am doing the Nautica New York City Triathlon in July, and Mike and I are doing the Chicago Triathlon in August. This will be my second time and Mike's third time doing the Chicago Triathlon. The NYC Tri is going to be my first solitary tri :( Usually I have Mike to compete with or at least cheer with, but he will be doing great things with Camp Horizon that day, and so I am on my own... And Mike is doing his first Half-Ironman in Augusta this September! Oh, yeah, and did I mention that we will be returning from a wedding/vacation in London the weekend before his Half-Ironman?! Ooops! :) 

Well, that's all for now... I will leave you with pictures of us and Maggie at Bark in the Park at Turner Field this past weekend. How cool is it that you can take your dog to Braves game?! Tons of fun and definitely recommend to any other dog lovers out there!
