Hi from Charlotte. I arrived home last night around 7 p.m. after spending the last five days with my grandmother in Florida. I’m going to share an overview of my visit today but before I do, I thought it would be fun to tell you how I spilled the beans to her about my pregnancy. [...]

Next time I visit I am going to do a “scenes from my run” tour of Milledgeville so that [...]

A Happy Homecoming + Weekend Part Two

Prayers
June 19, 2011 { 49 comments }Hi friends. How was your weekend? Mine was really nice. Catch up on part one – a yoga teacher training reunion, a 9-mile long run, meeting up with a PBR reader and more. Part two of my weekend was equally as fantastic and involved an Italian dinner, going to see Bridesmaids, teaching yoga, getting an [...]
