Happy Belated Halloween everyone!
Two Friday nights ago, Patrick and I attended the Laughter for the Children event to benefit Monroe Harding, Inc. This is a great organization that benefits children who are in state custody and children in foster care. We had a fun time and were able to score a night’s stay at Opryland Hotel during the silent auction.
On Saturday, we attended our annual Halloween Party hosted by our friends, Dobber and Nicole. It was a great time and this year, my beau and I decided to go as Popeye and Olive Oyl. We really enjoyed the costume and the best part of it is that I wasn’t uncomfortable all night and I didn’t feel so '”exposed.” Here is a pic:
This weekend was a major yard sale extravaganza! As you have already heard many times, Patrick and I had so much stuff we needed to get rid of. Thank goodness we had the mother of all yard sales because we had an amazing profit of over $1,100. It was such a good feeling to be rid of a lot of our old stuff to make room for the new…it also feels good to have a little extra cash in our pockets!
Another exciting thing I’ve been focusing my time on is running. I ran in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure last weekend and this weekend, Anna Catherine and I ran in the Anything is Possible 5K at 1:50 in the morning…yes, that’s right…at 1:50 AM, we ran a race! It was so fun and in the words of AC, there were some interesting people in attendance. What’s also great about both of these races is that I ran them both without stopping! I’m really proud of myself for how much my endurance has increased recently. I’m currently training for the Women’s Half Marathon in St. Pete, FL in a couple of weeks and I’m really hoping to have a good time…we shall see how the remainder of my training goes…
That’s about all that’s going on with us…we are having a great time with the fall and looking very forward to the holidays coming up soon! How was your weekend!
