I busted open a fresh pair of Saucony Kinvara’s.  These will be my Boston Marathon shoes!!

I wore them to pace my Fleet Feet CMM group for 18 miles…felt great!

I didn’t feel like cooking steel-cut oats after my run, so I had the next best option…Umpqua Instant Oats.  They’re SO good!!

It was game day, so I sported my Kentucky blue.  Spoiler alert: they lost, but it was one heck of a season!

I decided that I’m tired of skinny jeans.  Yes, they’re cool.  Yes, they make me feel like a sausage link.  So, I bought a pair of bootcut jeans.  Note: the pair that fits me best is for a curvy body type!

I celebrated my long run with a glass of champagne.  It’s a good tradition.

Were you able to see the blood moon eclipse?

I went for an early morning workout, and came home to my husband!!  He was supposed to be out of town, but managed to come home for the day.  Great surprise!!!!

I see this joke every year and it always cracks me up!

I took advantage of some down time and enjoyed our front porch swing 🙂

If you’ve been reading along for a while, you know that we don’t have any kids.  Easter is one of those days where I wish we did.  It would be so much fun to play Easter bunny.  Plus, I could share their candy.  (NOTE: this is totally not a reason to have a kid!)  But, I didn’t have a single jelly bean, Peep, or Reese’s Egg this year.  Crazy!  Follow me on Twitter HERE!!!

It’s hard to believe that Lent is over.  For 44 days, I gave up sweets and added a daily Joy Jar ritual.  I’m so glad the sweets are back in my life!! However, I do plan to continue with my Joy Jar.  It’s such a nice practice to write down something I’m thankful for every day.  And, I love the physical reminder of seeing my jar accumulate gratitude.

Totally random question: Are you dipper?  I always order my salad dressing, ketchup, syrup, etc…on the side.  I feel like I should have outgrown this practice in kindergarten.

Easter highlight?  unexpectedly getting to spend the day with my husband!

Favorite Easter candy? I like Peeps (preferably the bunnies) and Reese’s Eggs.
