quote of the day

I came across this quote at a blog titled "Sweet Tea and Theology"...sounds like a Godly blog to me...

"The question is not, 'Am I good enough to be a Christian?' rather; the question is, 'Am I good enough not to be a Christian?"

26 mile training run

They tell us that after last Saturday we are ready for the marathon. We are just "maintaining" for the next several weeks until the actual race. Here are a couple of pics from the end of 26 miles...notice at this distance I look focused and strong. I'm a runner and I thrive on this stuff...then...the close up...

WHERE IS THE FINISH!!! I'm cold. I'm hungry. My feet hurt. I want to take a nap. I just want to...oooooo look a medal! Pretty!

first of the year

I know we are weeeeell into 2009 and I am off to a slooooow start on the blogging front. I have recently entered the world of facebook and that has taken a chunk of my "online" time lately. Come look for me at yet another site. I will try to do better but here are some updates for now...

We are pregnant again...YEAH!!!
The baby is due Aug. 24th. We are in a mad search for baby names AGAIN. (We are taking suggestions)

Tomorrow I have the longest (and coldest) training run yet for the marathon...26 miles!!!
The wind chill is supposed to be in the teens at 5am when we start. I know some of you are wishing you were that warm right now but this is FLORIDA!!! It's not supposed to be this cold. Oh well...

The marathon is Feb. 15th and right now it is consuming a lot of my thought process. I'm actually a little nervous about it.

I am 35 now and am loving life...I only have 12 months to be this age so it should be fun.

More updates later...
