russell forest run

I ran in the Russell Forest run this past Saturday with my Mom at Lake Martin. She walked the 10k and I ran the 5k. {I hope to be as in shape and cool as my mom when I'm 58.} :-) This was my first year doing the race {my mom's 3rd}, and I can't wait to do it again next year! I had heard the course was really tough, so I opted for the 5k.

After the race they had a lot of yummy food at the Stables, then we continued the celebration with bloody mary's at Springhouse. Here are some pictures from the morning... Wish I would have gotten more pics, but it's hard to talk and take pictures at the same time. :-)

Who and Libby in the carriage waiting for everyone to finish.
RF, Mr. Roger Mr. Kenneth, Lauren and her hubby walking up from finishing the 10k!
Na-na and I walking up to the Stables after the race.

Libby was not in the mood for pictures! Can you tell?!

On the patio at SpringHouse. Sorry Mom and Dad, it's the only pic I had of all of us!
My mom and I have talked the men into doing it next year with us! Yay. It will be a family affair. :-)

Have a great week!

second annual winter beach trip

Yesterday, we got back from the second- annual- winter- beach- trip with the Lamberths in Blue Mountain beach. We were there for four days, and it was so fun and relaxing! {we just wish Thomas and Amber could have been there... next year!}

We left Saturday afternoon {which was the worst possible time to leave might I add!} It rained the whole way down... Libby was highly annoyed with the loud rain.


I'll just let the pictures speak for themselves.  I took a ton of pictures, so there will be little words. I don't want it to take you an hour to read this post! :-)

SUNDAY

The first thing Libby wanted to do when we got down to the beach was make sand angels!


After lunch these two had fun playing across the road in this patch of gravel. It's true...Kids can have fun anywhere!



this picture cracks me up! henry looks so grown up with his hands behind his back!
this pretty much describes these two. libby leading the way and henry following. it won't be long before he catches up with her!
he's such a big boy now!
it was really windy! can't you tell??




oh, hello grown up libby! can you please stop looking so grown up!?!

day trip

We went on a little day trip Wednesday with our friend Tucker and his mama. We couldn't make it to his birthday party this past weekend, so we thought we would continue the celebration by going to Callaway Gardens. I forget how close we are to C.G. It took no longer than 30-35 minutes. So easy!

Even better, the month of January and February is free. Nice, huh? We went to the butterfly house, feed the geese and walked a few trails. They loved it!

















We lucked out on the weather.... It wasn't too cold or hot, and the sun was out! Next time we will pack our bikes and ride some trails!
