Weekend Must Have: Fun!

omg!  With the craziness of the past week I forgot to share what I did last weekend... I participated in my first ever 5K race! I ran in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Kansas City last Sunday morning and it was amazing! Over 28,000 people showed up and raised over $1 million dollars for this amazing organization! It was such a rush to be apart of such a great cause! I'm happy to report that after several weeks of training I successfully finished the race (without walking!) in just 30 minutes! 

So, tell me... what are you up to this weekend, dear readers? Whatever it is, make it fun!

I think I can, I think I can...

shades, Ralph Lauren; scarf, Target; shirt, Gianni Bini; pants, Old Navy; shoes, so old, I don't remember

This is actually what I wore Tuesday.  Tuesday the weather started out cold and gray and  crappy - much like it had been for most of the weekend.  However, by Tuesday I was tired of wearing layers of knits and trying to stay warm in clothes that should be worn in October, not May.  So, I decided that since the weather could not decide to play nice, I would need to do a little convincing.  I broke out this beautiful floral scarf that I found at Target over the weekend, and what do you know?! By the time I left work the sun was out, the temperature was rising and I needed my shades.  See there Mother Nature, that wasn't so bad, now was it?
