Hello Friends! I hope all of you Mothers had an amazing Mother’s Day! I was only able to text my mom this lame picture…but I will be seeing her soon and hopefully she likes the surprise I’m sending to her work! 🙂 I am still hanging out in the twin cities with Dave and we…

{MIMM #17} Whirlwind
Hello Friends! Not only did I survive this crazy busy weekend…I survived running 13.1 miles in the chilly 40 degree weather. Yes, it is May, but it felt more like a frigid February. That’s the midwest for ya though! For example, last Sunday I ran 10 miles in 70 degree weather and got a little…
{MIMM #16} Blessed
Hello Friends! I am sitting here in my dad’s basement Sunday evening at 11pm, very exhausted, waiting for my laundry to be done and thinking how blessed I am. And how seldom I believe myself to be so. I got to head to my hometown where I was surrounded by people all weekend. While…
{MIMM #15} Birthday {Giveaway} + Chobani Freezing Tips
Hello Friends! Well, the KC trip went a little differently than I had imagined to say the least. It was fun, yes. It was also rough. I was kind of a train wreck of emotions the past five days to tell you the absolute truth. After the chaos of packing and getting the apartment cleaned…
{MIMM #14} Easter 2013 + Excited for MINK
Hello Friends! First of all I hope you all had a wonderful Easter! And I’m not going to get politically correct and say “if you celebrate Easter” like I’ve seen some doing…that’s kind of a given, right? The phrases we use like “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Thanksgiving” are never meant offensively, at least I can’t…
{MIMM #13} What DID I do in KC?
Happy Monday, Friends! MIMM or Marvelous in my Monday is all about positivity on a day that many of us dread….Mondays. I am so happy Katie started this link-up so we can get our weeks off on the right foot! Last week I got to hang out with Dave (the BF) over Spring Break in…
{MIMM #12} Best Laid Plans + Happy Birthday Sister!
Hello Friends! Welp, the weekend sure did not go as I had planned, but I did have fun (and got to see my nephew!!). “And THIS is a CARROT!” The intent was to do my long run Saturday morning with the running group I’m a part of (but haven’t really run with). I was pretty…
{MIMM #11} At Least I had a Good Weekend?
Hello Friends! It’s always something. Does it seem like that to anyone else? Maybe it’s just one of those challenging phases of life.Where I learn a whole lot about myself and what really matters and how to operate under stress and deal with the loneliness that comes from moving to a new city…. Or maybe…
{MIMM #10} It’s Monday BUT
Hello Friends! Sometimes it takes me a bit to recover from the weekend. Specifically the sleeping schedule. I stay up late Sunday evening getting things unpacked (when I go back home..like this weekend) and getting ready for the week…then it takes time to unwind and have my bedtime tea and cereal. As a result, it…
{#MIMM #9} Winning
Happy Monday! It’s another Marvelous Monday! Mondays tend to be a weekend recap as of late, so here was my weekend! Dave (the BF) and I had another fun-food-filled weekend back in my home town. (It’s so weird that I don’t live there anymore! 25 years of my life and I have to visit my…
