1. I read this quote on The Single Woman's blog and loved it. "If you really want to find the right one, let go of the jerks and the bad boys and start looking for men you would want to rock it with at Cracker Barrel when you are 80." There's nothing like a good old people love story. Or Cracker Barrel, for that matter. I'm in.
2. The professional pictures came in from BFF's wedding and I absolutely love this one of me and BFF eating pie during the reception. I love that kid.
3. Last weekend I went to take reasons at a FFA judging contest. It was like a flashback to the good ol' days and I really enjoyed it. My favorite part was when someone referred to me as "one of Mr. Franklin's kids." Best compliment that someone could give me. I sure do miss him.
4. This year was the first time that a kid took one of our lambs to Houston, and he made the sale. We were pretty excited for him.
5. The idea behind this blog that God wants us to fail at something. My favorite part? "Be more interested in my vision for you than in your dreams for yourself. It may not look the way you think it should, and you might stumble and trip along this path. You may fail in the eyes of men, but not in mine. I will accomplish my purposes in you."
6. This idea. Made me want to build my own blanket fort. I don't know if that would be on the "staged house" approved list from my realtor...
7. Loud Oklahoma Girl and I are now on Week 6 of our half marathon training plan.....which means that come Saturday, we are halfway there! On Monday night I got in a really good 6 mile run, which I needed after slacking a bit this weekend.

8. I'm torn on whether I should be loving this or horribly offended, but yesterday I was in the elevator with a creepy guy who looked over at me and said, "Nice a**." I said, "Excuse me??" He just nodded and got out of the elevator. Part of me was offended and wanted to punch him in the face. The other part of me just wants to wear this skirt every day from now on. Ha!
9. The Word on Fire updates from Rome. ND Friend works at Word on Fire and I'm seriously loving the updates that Father Barron is sending back from Rome regarding the Papal Conclave. He keeps talking about Cardinal Dolan (who we all know I love) being a potential Pope......I hope he's not just giving me false hope!
10. The fact that these showed up at my office yesterday. On a random Tuesday. For no reason. From a boy. Other than Uncle Black Belt or BFF. Yea. I think that might be the first time that has ever happened. And I like it.

First, can I join you in the blanket fort?
Second, go with the ass comment as a complement and take it as a great thing :) This speaks to all the hard work you have been putting in. You go girl!
Third, I look way rough in that pic. Also, I am questioning the fact that I will be able to finish the half. I am still sore today from my 6 mile run yesterday.
Last love the beautiful flowers!!

Great job on 1/2 training. I considered that I might want to run another one, but then I decided I probably shouldn't, I mean I am 30 now.
