happy new year!

Happy New Year!  

Are you tired of hearing that yet?  We are constantly being reminded on all our social media sites, Facebook, twitter, instagram, but I guarantee I will be writing 2015 for a few months.

How was your 2015?  How was your New Years?  

I have to say my 2015 was pretty spectacular.  My students are wonderful, we adopted 2 beautiful kitties, I got married, and during the last week of 2015 I finally found my running mojo.

It has been so long since I've been here, to be exact it was October so I should catch everyone up on things that went on.

August I had my bachelorette party that my best bridesmaids planned and threw and it was so much fun!  It was great to get to see some friends I don’t get to see too often and wear tutus and party :)

In October, I went up to New York and my aunt threw me a fabulous bridal shower!  it was great to get to see family since many did not come to the wedding.


Not the best but sister, mom, me, and aunt in NY

November,  My mom, sister, and a few bridesmaids threw me my bridal shower and the day was absolutely perfect!  We are so blessed to have so many amazing people in our lives. 

Bridesmaids
Behn and I got married and it was perfect!  Well marrying him was perfect but the actual day was a HOT MESS!  We are still talking to Carnival Cruise lines about so many of the wrongs and all I want is for them to take some responsibility.  Yea, I would not recommend going that route for a wedding but it did come highly recommended to us.    With that we also went on a cruise, it was a blast.

In December, I was accepted to run the NYC Half marathon again and I am so excited about that.  I lost my running mojo back in February after running the Gasprilla challenge and getting into this race was just what I needed to get my up and going.  I hired Abby as my coach and I am looking forward to working with her.  (I'll talk more about that decision on 
another post)



We also celebrated Joey's birthday and tomorrow we will have had him for exactly 1 year






We also adopted our Toby to make us a family of four.

That purse is mine?
I really cannot wait to see what 2016 holds for my little family!

I will certainly go into many more details about all that is gong on but wanted to give you a quick recap of the last few months.

What resolutions or goals have you made this year?  
Mine is to be happy and healthy


How was your 2015?

happy Friday! boy has it been a while

Happy Friday, everyone! hope everyone is having a great holiday season! I am so happy it is Friday of course! I haven't been blogging lately but have been busy reading all your blogs. 

This weekend I am headed up to New York to visit my family, especially my grandma who is not doing so well.  I head up Friday after work and get back Subday afternoon.  Hopefully I will get to see some of my Israel family as well!

now it's time for my Friday letters and get you all caught up on my life! 

Dear Friday, I am so happy to see you of course! I am excited to see my family and there is only one more Friday before winter break.

Dear NYC marathon, even though you were over a Month ago, I still owe you a race recap.  let's just say it didn't go as planned and I hated almost every second of that race. I think my expectations were too high. 

Dear exercise, I miss you and can't wait until you return to my life next week. I am lazy!

Dear "big race", I signed up for a big race  that haven't disclosed yet on the blog and will hopefully get around to telling you about that.  any guesses on what it is?

Dear fiancé, yes! there is one now and I couldn't be more excited to spend the rest of my life with you! if a goes well, we will wed exactly one year from today!
