My Guilty Pleasure.....

So I have a guilty pleasure.....I will admit it! I watch the New Jersey Housewives.....there I said it!! I love the drama....as long as it is not in my life.
While we were off on vacation I read that Teresa Guidice was doing a book signing about 1.5 hours away.
I got excited, so we decided to head out for the road trip, good time, and memories!
Here are some pictures from the big evening...it was a lot of fun and she was actually very nice!!

All Good Things Must End.....

Well vacation is over as of 8 am tomorrow morning for me and 6am for Rusty......we are very sad!
We went from these happy faces from above to very sad faces laying in bed soaking up our last few hours together of freedom.
We had a great time off, it was nice hanging around the house with the pups, getting stuff done, doing little day trips, and just relaxing!!
Vacation was full of fun memories: decorating our guest room, Hershey park, Teresa Guidice book signing, gettysburg day trip, shopping, lots of food eating, Dexter watching, time with friends, movies to see the new pirates movie, found a new favorite Mexican restaurant, and much more.
I will do more specific posts this week, but for now I must go and enjoy my last few hours of VACATION!!!!

VACATION!!!!!

I am officially on vacation as of 4:30pm. I have enjoyed my first 31 minutes :)
I have the next 9 days off.... I don't know if I am going to know what to do with myself! I am used to working 6 days every week with a crazy on-call schedule and I am TIRED.... I need a break.
We are just staying around the house and doing some stuff around the house (fix up a guest bedroom, garden, etc) and a couple of day trips here and there. We are going to Hershey Park which I am super excited about!!!
I don't know how much I will blog while I am off, but I will be sure to share our fun when I return from VACATION!!!!

C25K



Several weeks ago I added a new program to my workout routine. C25K.....couch to 5k. It is a program that slowly prepares your body to run a 5k in 9 weeks. It takes someone with no running experience and builds their body up to be able to run 3.1 miles.
Prior to starting the program, I had not run in FOREVER.... I mean like at least 5-6 years. I was not sure how I was going to do, but I was determined!!!
I am now finishing my last day of week 6.... about two more weeks to go! I feel great.... there are some days that are really hard, but I push through and it is well worth it in the end. I know to some, 3.1 miles is not a lot but for right now it is to me!
The best part..... I am going to do an actual 5k in September :) I can not wait.... the money raised for the race goes to figh childhood cancer- a true test of my determination and for a good cause!!
I will be sure to share pictures and update as the race gets closer and I finish the C25K program.

Rainbow Magic

Rusty and I saw a double rainbow on the way to Home Depot this evening, it was so beautiful- maybe that means double the luck!? We had to stop and take some pictures, we were not the only dorks who thought it was super pretty since we saw at least 6-7 other cars stopping for pictures too!
I am off to bed, I have to work tomorrow and will be on call the remainder of the weekend :(

Cinco De Mayo!

Rusty and I had our friend Julie over to celebrate Cinco De Mayo.....complete with Mexican food, music, and some yummy dessert!
We made fajitas, rice, peppers, and homemade chips with salsa. Dessert was nothing Mexican style but dill good....angel food cake, jello, yogurt, strawberries, and cool whip- can't go wrong there!
What did you guys do to celebrate the day????

Happy Birthday Hannah!

Last week we celebrated my niece/god-daughters first birthday! I am a little behind on the post, but just look at how cute she is! She didn't know what to think about the sweet taste of the cake at first but she got used to after a few bites!!!
Happy Birthday little Hannah :)
