This past weekend Josh and I spent Easter in Virginia. What is ever so nice about Virginia is that my Dad and all of Josh's family live in the same town! We get to see everyone! And when I say nice I actually mean chaotic, fun, loud, busy...an overall good time in my book! One of my favorite things that we did this weekend that I haven't done in years was dye eggs! I had forgotten how much fun that was! I got all excited because I remember that if you put the red and blue together you can make purple eggs! I'm telling you people that it is the little things that make life worth while! I wanted to have a kid of my own right then just so I can have an excuse to dye eggs next year...and then I had a realization that I would just go back to Virginia and dye eggs again with Jenn and Lisa's kids because I am not ready for my own babies yet!
Josh's sister Jenn and I had a great, but exceptionally hot, 12 mile run this weekend too! Don't know what I would do without her as a running buddy sometimes because if I would have been by myself I would have walked my happy ass back to the house! It was soooo hot! My half-marathon is in 2 weeks! The Sunday of easter was spent in church, where I colored and ate banana and dried fruit with my 2 year of niece and nephews! We all went back to the house and had Pollards Chicken (amazing fried chicken from Va Beach!) and enjoyed each others company with the help of squirt guns!
I always wish we had more time to spend with everyone! If I had it my way everyone I know and love would live an hour away! That way I could get to them anytime! This weekend seemed to pass by in a flash! My Dad always say's don't blink, but thats a lot easier said than done! Oh and before I go I cannot forget to mention the amazing basketball this weekend! Go Duke! Butler played amazing and the game was phenomenal! I am so proud of both of the teams, but God it does feel good to be a Duke fan today!
Enjoy reading your blog. I also appreciate the little things in life and agree little things in life make life enjoyable and create memories. "Don't blink", haven't heard that in a long time but it is excellent advice and so true. Love your button art and creations. I also have old collection of buttons, some my grandma and great grandma collected.
