"I run my life, or is it running me..."

Well here I am again, another month has gone by and I haven't been very good about keeping my blog updated (I am really sorry Heather). Timmy and I have both been busy with work and it seems like our weekends have defined our off time for the past month as well. I am sorry that I have been bad about updating the blog but here is a brief update of what we have been up to for the past several weeks (mostly weekends).

We enjoyed a weekend trip home the second weekend in March to catch up with family and friends. The best part however was that I finally got to see Wicked! We had been trying to see it for a while it wasn't working out either with our schedule or it would be sold out. So when we were home last summer and Timmy saw it was coming to Richmond in March he got us tickets and we had a great time taking his parents along to go see it! It was amazing and I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it and get the chance to!

The following weekend Kassie and I took seven of our Panhellenic council officers down to Atlanta for a regional conference. It was great spending time with the girls as well as getting to catch up with other friends and colleagues.



Some of you know that the fall after Timmy and I got married we ran in a 5K that benefited the Make-A-Wish Foundation. We spent several months leading up to that little race practicing and preparing. Well we decided that since we now live in Charleston that we needed to participate in their annual Cooper River Bridge Run, which is a 10K. We registered but didn't really spend too much time preparing for this one, just decided we would do the best we could even if we walked. Well we did the race and I am happy to report that despite being out of shape and not really preparing we both completed the race in less than an hour and 15 minutes (beating our goal of trying to do it in at least an hour and half!). We are glad we did it and certainly enjoyed the long nap we took that afternoon afterwards!



We decided to stay in Charleston for Easter since we will be going home at the end of the month for a wedding. In the Easter spirit though we dyed Easter eggs with our friends Melantha and Kassie. Mom also came down to visit and we hosted Easter dinner at our house for all of our friends who were also still in town. We bought a new table for our screened in porch and finally had a chance to use our china (first time ever). We love to host and it was great to have mom here and to celebrate with her and our Charleston family.








This weekend we have been hanging around and resting as the next couple of weeks and weekends will be busy again. We are enjoying that the weather is finally getting nice, Charleston is certainly beautiful this time of year, it makes us both grateful for all of the many blessings we have in our lives!
