Hi friends! So great seeing so many of you planning on running Disney races next year!

I have some SERIOUSLY exciting stuff to share with yall…just not yet, but soon, very very soon! Let’s just say the next few weeks are going to be crazy, and I won’t be with Bobby on his birthday. bummer.

So, I will be in Orlando Memorial Day weekend. Any Orlando area bloggers up for a meet up? If so, leave me a comment or e mail me so we can coordinate!

I am really excited about the line up of guest bloggers I have for you while I am gone. In the past, I have just not blogged when gone on vaca for a week, but not this time. You will be thoroughly entertained all week, so keep checking the blog once I am gone in a few days!

So, something random today but fun. Our neighborhood has a beautiful vegetable garden with tons of flowers too, and I went out and took a bunch of pictures, and wanted to share some with you!

Beautiful flowers right? I have more that I will save for a rainy day.

Yesterday I went on a 2 mile run. it was supposed to be three, but I was really sore from my 6 weeks to 6 pack DVD I did Monday. I used to do this video 4-5 times and week and got to the point I was never sore, so I am sad I am already back to getting sore again. Bummer. Anyway, I also didn’t eat enough yesterday before the run or anything really healthy, (nutrition FAIL) so I got weak and shaky and it was just an all around bad run, so I decided to come on back in after 2 miles. better than nothing right?

QOTD: What is your favorite flower?

    Your shaky episode/no food reminded me of marathon 2009 trip in the DtD Christmas store. Remember that crazy lady that wouldn’t stop talking?! lol

    Hey, I live in Orlando! I haven’t ever done a blog meet up, and I don’t write primarily about running, but I’d like to join a meet up in my area if you have one. 🙂

    My favorite flower–I used to have some. I used to help my grandma with her garden in Spring, and my favorites were African violets and marigolds. Then I fell in love with orchids and tulips and snowdrops. I love all the long pretty ones you can put in a wedding bouquet, like Calla Lilies and the white one I can’t remember the name of. I would say my favorite flower of the moment is the orchid.

    I don’t really have a favorite flower, I don’t think. I don’t get flowers very often. Once a year maybe. I do love lily of the valley though. It was one of my sorority flowers but I just think they are pretty. I really wanted them in my wedding bouquet, but they were ridiculously expensive. I LOVED Kate Middleton’s bouquet b/c it was small and simple with lily of the valley! 🙂 I also like orchids. The funky ones (but not the ones that look too insect-y).

    Gorgeous flowers! My favorite flower is the gerbera daisy. They are just so bright and happy, they always make me smile. 🙂

So thankful for God’s faithfulness, provision, and grace through every high, low, and in-between moment. Here’s to closing out 2025 full of gratitude, and stepping into 2026 with hope and  excitement. ✨ 

Happy New Year. Cheers to another one. 🥂

It will be YOU. 🎄 They don’t know it yet. But whe It will be YOU. 🎄

They don’t know it yet. But
when they’re grown and starting
their own Christmas traditions,
it will be you they mirror.
Your family recipes,
the Christmas songs,
the nostalgic smell.

When they think of Christmas,
it will be YOU, not the presents
that they remember.

You are their memories.
You are their magic.
You are their Christmas. ❤️🎄

So slow down. Stop worrying if the presents are wrapped just right, if you baked enough cookies or picked out the right cards to send. It doesn’t matter. They will remember YOU.
