From where I left off












Well seeing as my last blog was March 22nd, I figured today April 22nd would be a good place to pick up where I left off.


The past month has been filled with lots of excitement and fun times!

At the end of March Adam and I participated in the Oschner 5k. It was the first race I had done in a long time. I ran with Adam the whole time, something I don't think I have ever done. I was proud of him he did just fine for not having exercised in a really long time.
After the race we hung out with friends and then ended the night in Adrienne's backyard drinking beer and telling fun stories.


The end of March was also exciting because we put an offer on a house!! Yep that's right a real grownup house! After going back and forth a few times we finally came to an agreement and the house went under contract the first week in April. Closing date is April 30th which is just NEXT Friday! I am so excited I can not even express, I'll be going from just under 500 s.f. to 3,000 s.f. .... yipee for space!!!!
The new house!

Of course I'm going to be sad to leave my little apt. after 7 years:( I've got lots of memories there. It will be an adjustment living with Adam full time as well. I'm sure I'll have some stories on that in blogs to come.

The beginning of April also brought the annual Crecent City Classic 10K. This year I was lucky enough to drive some of the elite keynans on a course tour and get to hang out with them. They were a great group and it was so neat to meet such fast runners! On race day Adam and I ran/walked together, we made it through the whole thing and enjoyed lots of Abita beer at the end.






Easter this year was perfect weather. I attended church with my parents at St. Francis on State street then we met up with Corey and Adam for lunch at the Red Fish Grill, it was delicious!




The weekend of April 9th was French Quarter Fest! Andrienne, Andrew and I spent Friday afternoon in the quarter, and along the river front enjoying the food and music. We even took a little ferry ride over to the westbank to check out Algiers Point. Good Day:)


To end things last weekend was the IronMan New Orleans 70.3. It was strange not to be participating this year. Next year hopefully I will be injury free with a new bike and ready to go! I spent all day cheering on all my friends that were participating.
