Running --life--summertime

Running---- I wasn't going to blog about his but I'm going to a little:):).    I've been running since Zach was born 2yrs ago almost 3,  I slowed down a lot while I was pregnant with Adriel but kept running just didn't push myself.... I really never thought I would be a runner and hated it when I first started!!  I kept going and it became a stress reliever and just something I had to do:):) something I could do for exercise since my options are limited at this stage in my life..... And it became my thing it was just running our driveway pretty much because that's all I felt comfortable with ,with the kids at home, so just did what I could,,, beginning of the year I decided I needed to break out of my comfort zone and do some races this yr, didn't think it would be me but needed to get out of my comfortableness ( if that's even a word:) and try it..... I'm kinda a loner, and like that for my alone time,,,,,, anyway Saturday I did my 2nd 5k for this yr:).  I'm getting a little more comfortable with what was uncomfortable and want to keep moving forward,,,,, it can be that way in our spiritual journey as well,some things may feel uncomfortable or scary but sometimes we just need to move forward into more....  I've just been challenged with this lately!! I don't want to settle for just ok I want to keep learning to keep growing stronger!!   I've been thinking of that saying lately that says fall down 6 get up seven, that's true but I don't want to keep falling down, how can you move forward if you keep falling down and getting up?? I want to move forward and at the end of the race I want to hear you've run the race you've kept the faith, well done my faithful servant!,,      Anyway whew was not gonna get into all that:):) here's some pics:).   Blessings!!

Pa trip

Seriously I am so behind in blogging, where do I start or should I even bother??  I started this blog so me and my sister could keep up with each others lives since she got off fb... Then Instagram came along and we started doing it more that way, so now our blogs get so neglected:):) ( seriously hint hint sis time for an update pleeeeze!!! I think u had a baby and all that since your last update:):)))). But I like doing it to look back and read ,it's become almost like a journal for myself:):).   So anyway here's one of mabe many to get updated:):) see how it goes::::::     PA TRIP:::::::    We did the annual boulder ridge with Steve's family for 3 days... We didn't head up until Saturday this time and went to boulder ridge Sunday eve until Wednesday ,,   Thursday we went to the beach for the day,,, Friday me and steve went to market,    Saturday we went down to gap park to the ORI fundraiser... Monday morning I drove steve down to Trenton NJ, he flew back home,    On the way home I stopped at trader joes .... When I came out I realized I had a flat tire:(:( my dad came down with somebody and helped me out:):).  We were up for another week and a half...
