Lots and lots of yard work Monday

    Memorial Day is usually the start of nice weather “up North”! And what a great weekend for us. As always, we went to the Memorial Day parade in our town, then drove over to the city where I grew up (about 10 minutes away) and placed flags on the graves of our family veterans and said a few prayers. My son’s birthday falls on this weekend so we always have a joint birthday/Memorial day family party – this year was no exception. The solar cover heated the pool water up enough so everyone could swim (definitely NOT always the case!) The past 3 weeks have been incredibly busy as a family – my husband is taking a few night classes at a local university to finish a couple of grad courses up, kids had AP exams, SATS, ACTs (coming up), end of year assignments, basketball tournaments, lacrossse games, track invitationals, etc – so while we “should” have done yard work, we kind of just collapsed around the pool and enjoyed family time. Best weekend in a long time!!

    We did a little car test driving, as I am looking for a new car. Then my mom and I participated in our first 5k yesterday! I’m a new runner, so this was my first race!

    It looks like you had a great 3 day weekend! We took Wyatt on his first boat ride and he didn’t scream. He actually passed out. Success!

    I actually took time and really cleaned my kitchen. My roommates and I have been neglecting it for a while, so it was finally time to get it done. And I must say, it looks GREAT now 🙂

    Ran a 10k…in brutal heat!! I’m glad that race is over! Hard to believe it’s already SO humid and in upper 80s in Southern VA in late May. I’m already dreading my summer training runs. Other than that, normal Memorial Day activities – pool, bbq, etc.
    BTW, your yard looks fabulous – nice work! 🙂

    I love your yard! But I think I love that black dress more! 🙂

    I ran my 1st 10k race Monday-virtual run. I ALMOST died! It was so hot here in Alabama-even at 6pm. Now I’m looking for a “real” 10k to sign up for at the end of this month or July.

The Castaway Cay 5K was hands down one of our favorite memories from our @disneycruiseline cruise, just me and my girl, running along the most beautiful island with that Caribbean breeze and the bluest water cheering us on. It’s such a fun (and free!) way to experience Castaway Cay in a totally different way.

If you’re planning a cruise, this is your sign to do the 5K — even if you walk it! Grab water early, go first thing before it gets too hot, and don’t forget to stop for pictures because you won’t want to forget this one! 🏅 

If you’re ready to book your own Disney cruise, I’d love for you to use my link in my bio and plan through Best Day Ever Vacation. It’s completely free to have the book for you and they have over 1000 5 star reviews! 🤍

🚨 Right now there’s an incredible deal: 20% off select voyage fares PLUS a $250 onboard credit 🙌 
That onboard credit can go toward excursions, specialty dining, souvenirs, or spa time (yes please).

Let me know if you have questions about the 5K or cruising with kids, it truly was the best day ever! (Make sure you use my link in bio to get your free quote so they know that I sent you!!)
