But what struck me the most last night were the fingerless gloves Brad chose to sport in Seattle. FINGERLESS gloves people. Like straight up Burt out of Mary Poppins style of gloves. It was all very confusing and distracting until I saw Chantal O.'s hairstyle at the rose ceremony. Did anyone else happen to
This Saturday is Nick's and my 5K! I realize that 3.2 miles really isn't all that far, but I just have to say- I am really proud of us! Neither one of us are runners, and we have worked hard to get ready for this. We have stuck with our training program and improved a ton since we started a few weeks ago. Go us!
I really enjoyed all of the comments about The Five Love Languages! I cannot believe how many people have read that book!! Man, we were really out of the loop having not read it sooner. I am also reading Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger right now. (She wrote The Time Traveler's Wife.) Has anybody read this? I'm close to being finished with it. I think she is such a great writer! I love to read, but I go through spells where I won't read anything for a while. Then once I start back up again I will read several books back to back.
Oh, so this week my kids at school finally decided it was time to abandon the game of Ray-vees. (Thank goodness!) They have now moved on to playing puppies. I think it's so funny how they do this. They get in these kicks and will just play the same thing every day for weeks at a time. With puppies, they drag each other around on invisible leashes and bark and scratch at the doors of the school. They will also walk up to me and say, "Pretend like I'm white with brown spots, ok?" and then run off. It is so funny and so random!
Speaking of random, does anyone else use a Clairisonic Mia? I bought one about a year ago, and I *LOVE* this thing. Love, love, love it. I was hesitant to buy it because it's a little pricey, but I kept hearing great things about it. For me it has been 100% worth the money. My skin has never been great, but I feel like it is so much better than it was before. I can really tell a difference. Just wondering if anyone else uses one of these? Do you have some other really cool beauty tool or secret I might not be privy to?
I hope everyone has a great week! Apparently today is National Margartia Day according to Facebook??? Obviously, if Facebook says it then it must be true. Strap on your fingerless gloves and go take advantage!

I have the regular Clarisonic & I love it! I've had it for probably 3 years now & it's hands down the best part of my skincare routine! It really does make your skin look & feel so much better.
Okay- The Bachelor. Seriously I was so uncomfortable on Chantal N's date. I mean I would really rather have not know all of those details about embalming and such. Really, could have done without that. And yes, Chantal O wasn't looking so great at the rose cerimony! Not that I am one to judge, but hmmm, she just wasn't looking her best that night.
What is the Clarisonic and where do you get one? Is that through Beauty Control? Hope to see you Saturday if you guys can make it! Forgot it was the same day as the 5K too!
I'm probably the only 20 someodd year old that doesn't watch the Bachelor!
Five year old imaginations never cease to amaze me! Puppies...really (never would've thought of that when I was 5 though)!
Thanks for the tip about the Clarisonic thing! I'm always in the market for great skin care!
Man have I got some good news for you... you will not be running 3.2 miles, more like 3.1! That's one tenth less than you thought!!!
But in all seriousness... I am proud of you guys! I hope you become addicted like I have to races and do them all the time, they are so fun (especially when you train for more than what you actually have to run)!
Ha! How did I miss the fingerless gloves?! I totally didn't notice it. And I have to agree with you about Chantal at the rose ceremony. When I first saw her I was like, she's not doing herself any favors with that hair or dress!
I can't believe I didn't notice the fingerless gloves! I usually notice everything. But yes, her hairdo and her dress. She was looking unfortunate.
Also, I noticed how you said "saturday is nick's and my 5k"
THANK YOU!!!!! for using correct grammar. I am such word nerd and it drives me BATTY when people (ie: everybody on Bachelor) say things like "Brad and I's relationship" ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! There is a possessive form of "I" and it's MY!!!!!
Sorry for the rant...just wanted you to know I appreciate your grammar. :)
Gross dress at the rose ceremony. it looked like a bad bridesmaid's dress from 10 years ago that no longer fits.
What 5K are you running??? once you start, you will be hooked! I will be up in Arlington this weekend for the Cowtown half marathon on Sunday!!
I also have a TON more kindergarten blogs and websites I have been frequenting. Email me if you want the websites!
Good luck on Saturday! You will love it!!!!
I too fixated on the fingerless gloves and slicked hair. I was amazed at how soap opera-ish Chantal's date was! Her mother! WOW! She had the weird long looks down pat!
Your the second blogger I've heard talk about the Clarisonic. I use something similar from Neutrogena. I love, love all Neutrogena products and have been using them forever.
Now,about The Bachelor,was Chantel the one in the red dress?
Anyway, good luck on your race :)
Okay, this post just confirmed why I love your blog! You were thinking the SAME things I was about the Bachelor! So funny! I make my Hubs watch with me and when the Rose ceremony began and we saw Chantal O. we both said "Whoa"-ha! I have never heard of a Clarisonic whatever, but I am definitely googling it right now...my skin needs all the help it can get!
I'm not sure if I've commented before, but I just love your blog! I was a Kindergarten teacher before, and I think "playing puppy" is a phase that all kids go through for some reason or another!! My kids would love indoor recess/free centers b/c they would play puppy all around the classroom. It was always such a hoot! :)
