Race day.....

Way back in the dark of winter, three gals decided on a half marathon.  Heather, Nicole and I signed up for the Maple Grove half marathon on the day before Mother's day.  I was training somewhat reliably, so I thought I could run that far.  Nicole and Heather not so much.  So after bravely surviving a branch to the eye while putting up our back fence, we all agreed to run a shorter distance.  It was still fun to get to run with my gal pals.  Afterwards we got a great breakfast together too!

Maybe next year we will get a half in!

Friends + Fall = the perfect combo

Any time is a super time to get together with gal pals. I had a full week with my girl friends last week.

Dinner on the patio with Marie.

A long overdue get together with Jess. We had been trying for several weeks to get together. It finally worked out, so we spent a couple hours catching up and chatting at George & the Dragon.

Fall girls day of coffee, shopping, wine at 50th and France. It seemed like ages since I had seen Kathleen and Anne. So it was fabulous to catch up with them. ...and find out that K is running Monster dash too. And the both of them will also be at the Madonna concert next month!

It was a busy week, but a fun one.
