Mish-Mash

May 12, 2010 | Uncategorized

I finally uploaded some photos from the 5k we ran and better pics of my new bed, my shutterfly party set up etc. SO I thought I would post some non iphone pictures for a change!

first, here is my set up for my shutterfly photobook party from last night

My oh so comfy tempurpedic bed!

rose pedals leading to the new bed

5k race that was awful and hot at 2 pm!

race shirt

Bobby after the race. I wasmiserable. I don’t know why he was smilng!

and here is a pic I snapped of the first page of “the list” I have to do for the end of the year at school. This is page one of two.

I went to an early dinner with a good friend from college, then Bobby and I ran an easy 3 miles. I am still so sore, so every step was painful so we went pretty slow, but I feel better.
Ok I am off to finish watching Glee I tivoed. Hilarious.

QOTD: What did you think of Glee this week? Or do you have another show you watch that you love?

    The skirt looks great! I also like the race shirt. I’ve never gotten one with purple on it before.

    You’re “to do” list is insane! My mom is a teacher, so I totally understand. Good luck on getting it all done!

      thanks, I love my skirts!
      Yeah when I got my folder with my list and all my forms, etc. I wanted to cry! But, I got it all done before, so I can hopefully do it again!

    I didn’t realize that the bed was tempurpedic! That’s even more exciting than I imagined it could be :). My summer to-do list looks a lot like your end-of-the-year list…ah the life of a teacher …

      yes! we got spoiled. The bed we had been sleeping on was a queen, and it was the basic tempurpedic. We borrowed if from my parents b/c they ahd an extra bed. So, now we are giving their bed back and we have loved that matress so of course we HAD to get another one. We got one form the new cloud line. Bliss!

    I don’t watch Glee or much tv in general but there are two shows I never miss. LOST…which needs to be over already because it’s getting worse and worse.
    Real Housewives (of any city but Atlanta)…I know it’s smutty but I can’t help but watch! I’m excited for Bethenny’s new show too!

Holiday shopping days with my mini me are some of Holiday shopping days with my mini me are some of my favorite traditions. ✨☕ 
From grabbing coffee to wandering through the decorated stores, there’s just something magical about this season. We laughed, made memories, and even managed to cross a few names off our list. 🎄 (ad) 

One of our favorite stops was Reeds at West Town Mall, where I spotted the new Victorinox Air Pro — a watch that’s Swiss-made with incredible craftsmanship, a stainless steel case, shock + water resistance, and even the ability to track 3 time zones at once. 🙌 It’s modern, timeless, and such a meaningful find for the men in my life.

The best part? Ending the day with full shopping bags, full hearts, and a gift I know will be worn and treasured for years. 💫 @victorinoxnorthamerica

🏖️ I’m so thankful my parents took us on tr 🏖️ I’m so thankful my parents took us on trips growing up. When I was young, we didn’t have a lot of money, but they made every weekend getaway or camping trip special, and I have so many great memories. 

We may not have gotten to travel often until I was a teenager, but we still had a blast, and they even took us to a @spectrumresorts  property! (Ad)

As an adult, I am so grateful to be able to return the favor. To see them laugh and play with my daughter like they did with me. It’s one of those special full circle moments, those core memories that will stay with me forever. 🥹

Staying at @turquoiseplaceofficial makes things so easy, too. The condos are huge and we easily all fit without being on top of each other. There’s plenty to do with pools, a waterslide, lazy river, the beach, movie nights, kids activities, food, and more. ✨

It truly is the perfect place for a multigenerational vacation. So if you are looking for a great place to go with your parents, grandkids, aunts, uncles, or cousins, this is it. 💖

And, you can save 10% on your stay by using my code LOOKGLASS in the promo box when you are booking, here or at @thebeachclubresortandspa! 🏖️ 

Have you taken a multigenerational vacation? Where did you go?

We take her on these trips and cruises hoping she’ll soak in the adventure, the beauty, and maybe even the food from places different from where we live… but to her, nothing beats a corn dog and mac & cheese. 🧀 

And honestly, that’s the best reminder for us, that joy doesn’t have to be fancy, it just has to be yours. 🛳✨

YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the kids menu, and singing “Let it Go” with a butter knife while wearing Mickey ears on our Disney cruise. 🚢 

When I was 12, I was worried a lot… worried about failing, scared of what people would think of me, and of not fitting in or being “cool”. 
I turned 40 this year and have been spending time trying to figure out exactly who I really am with all expectations stripped away. I don’t love the term “finding yourself”, but here I feel like it fits. ✨

Maybe finding yourself means going back to being 12.… and being myself without being scared. Heather at 12 would never believe this version of me… but I think she’d be proud. 💛✨

Emma Kate turned 11 last month during our sailing and we did so many birthday things! She got a ton of “happy birthday’s” from crew and guests to make it extra special. ✨
