RAIN OR SHINE - Bike the Drive 2015

Let's start the new week with some Marvelous!


Harry and I + Adam and Teri did Bike the Drive yesterday morning.  Rain or shine, it was happening.

And for some reason, I wore a sleeveless jersey.  The only reason I can think of as to why I chose this was because I thought the sun was going to come out from behind the clouds.

But that never happened.

I didn't really mind riding in the rain all that much, especially when we don't have to worry about vehicle traffic.  Adam, Teri and I took off, while Harry hung back.  His right shoulder has been bugging him for a couple of days, so he planned on taking it easy on the ride.

We were pretty much drenched about twenty minutes into the ride.  I don't think that any of us really cared; if anything, it made the ride more enjoyable.

The rain stopped for a little while, and we slowed down a bit.  This gave me a chance to snap some pictures.  Hey, pretty.:)

Oh my gooses, I love that I live here.  I'm never over it.

We all met back up at Teri and Adam's, then went to get breaky at one of their favorite spots in their neighborhood.  After 30.5 miles, we were all pretty much going to dominate any food in front of us, but this place was

And the moment I saw "Nutella" on the menu, I just HAD TO HAVE IT.  My Delighful Crepes.<3

The rest of our Sunday ---------------------------> Being lazy.  Seriously.  We watched "The Simpsons", I napped, we had leftover pizza for dinner, and that was about it.

It feels nice to do that every once in a while.:)

Meanwhile, in Texas...

Many lakes and creeks are flooding, especially in Austin.  Please keep them in your happy thoughts.

As seen on the Facebook.

Start the day off right.

I stopped here for water.

Everything I needed was here!

I just had to get them.

We got started baking early.

Early - before she even showered.

Thankfully, she showered after batch #1.

Clean-up was a breeze.

If blogs could emit smells.

Four bars = one serving, right?

Getting ready to head out.

She had some training to do.

Burpees, push-ups, jumping jacks, sit-ups.

She wanted Harry to run.

Some pre-event carb-loading.

Tell me in five words what you're looking forward to this weekend!

It's Finally Friday!

I didn't even work every single day this week (I took Monday off to get some things taken care of), and it seemed like a SUPER LONG week!  My students (I see approximately 150 students in P.E. throughout the day) are going bananas.  I think they're just as anxious for summer as the teachers are.

But we're moving on to a three-day weekend!  Here are some randoms for Friday -- 

Josi's Froyo on a Thursday evening = sweet dreams.

 I sort of wish we weren't doing anything this weekend, but then I think about Bike the Drive last year, and I'm perfectly happy with going.  However, come Monday, other than running, Harry and I don't have plans.  We are always up for something, but sometimes, I'm excited when we don't have plans...and don't plan on making plans...

I gotta get this t-shirt for Harry.  GOTTA.

Is there a better song to play in P.E. when your first graders are playing Freeze Tag?

They can unfreeze their friends by crawling under their plank!<3

*BRAIN HUG*

GO HERE TO VOTE for which cookies Sophs and I should make this weekend!  A random winner will get a care package full of cookies from us.:)  Harry is picking her up and bringing her home TONIGHT, so voting will end this afternoon!  In other words, GO VOTE, Y'ALL!:)

I'm off for a run now -- oh happy day!
