What a great weekend we had!
Friday it started out with a fundraiser for our battalion. All of the company commanders were being dunked in the dunk tank. Not only was the water freezing but they put the tank in the shade haha. They were all really good sports about it.
That night we picked up our packets for the half marathon and had dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings, food always tastes much better when it's being purchased with a gift card. :)
Saturday morning we got up bright and early for the Fort Bliss Half Marathon. It was awesome! While we weren't shooting for a PR we ended up beating our last half time which was great for us.
Afterwards we had lunch and decided to go shopping for a new bed. We settled on a King size tempur-pedic (we currently have a queen size one). It was delivered yesterday and I'm in love haha.
Saturday night we headed over to a friends house to watch the Colts/Patriots game. It was awesome! 2 of the other commanders that Kyle works with are really really good friends of ours (along with their wives) and we had a blast hanging out with them.
The bottom picture sums up how our friend Tony felt about the Colts losing. lol.
Yesterday was more relaxed, I went grocery shopping and spent the rest of the day working on school work.
I hope you all had a great weekend!
A king sized bed would be lovely…congrats on the half marathon!
ReplyDeleteYou are right about giftcards -- we put one to good use this weekend too, and even though service was slow, we were okay with it, since the meal was paid for!! Good job on the run! Sounds like a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great weekend! My husband and I also got together with a bunch of officers and their wives for the game - it was a good one!
ReplyDeleteIt's so fun to get together with great people! :)
DeleteKing size bed is a lifesaver!!!! I dont know how we every slept in a Queen before. Haha! Congrats on your new PR for the half marathon. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the half marathon! I thought about you as I was taking my run Saturday morning and hoped you were doing well.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new PR! That's so awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhen we moved we bought a king size and I will never go back. I didn't realize how much I love sprawling out and my own space. When we go to my parents they have a full for us and Ryan is ALWAYS right next to me and it's too much. HAHA I love him, but give me some space. ;)
Gah, I am so jealous of the new bed! haha, we have a queen.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Tony on being excited that the Colts lost. I love my hometown, but I am tired of all my Indy friends rubbing their awesome Colts season in this Dolphins girl's face. So, take that, Colts!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the half. I find that people normally break PR's when they aren't even trying! :)
ReplyDeleteYou had a good weekend. Fun for you, love back drop of the mtn range behind you. Memories! I've been down with flu for 4 days now. Called into work, not going. Maybe one more day of rest will help. Feeling icky inside=no work. Happy Monday to you!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what we would do with a king size bed. We normally get a king at hotels, and it just feels like so much space (would be wasted because Mac likes sleeping on my side of the bed).
ReplyDeleteCongrats on beating your PR!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on a new Half PR! That's awesome! You might have to give me mattress recommendations. We have a king bed with a mattress that's about a decade old and we reallllly need one! I just hate forking over like $3K for a new one! :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a great weekend! Congrats on the half marathon!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! King size is the way to go, once you go king you never go queen? is that a saying?? it is now :)
ReplyDeleteYou rocked that half as usual! You will not regret the king-sized bed. I have no idea how we functioned before it! Haha!
ReplyDeleteI can not wait until John gets a company and we can do all of those fun things!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your PR!! Glad you had a great weekend! We might have to look into a temperpedic too. Our queen isn't big enough to fit all of is comfortably.
Looks like you had fun!! I absolutely LOVE your pink running capris!! :)
ReplyDeleteAwww looks like ya'll had a blast!
ReplyDelete:) We definitely did! Thanks!
DeleteOhhh, I can't wait going shopping for a new bedroom set! Congrats on your half marathon, and beating your time from the last race! There's nothing better than a nice night with friends :-) Have a great new week!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, now that the cats sleep with us, we're thinking about a king! Congrats on your half! Did you and Kyle run the whole thing together? If so, that's really cool!
ReplyDeleteAwe man, we want a king size bed so bad but it won't fit in our house! Ugh.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the PR!
Congratulations on the PR!
ReplyDeleteI would love a king bed. That way I could actually stay in bed when the dogs decide they need to sleep there as well. :)
looks like it was a great time by all!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great weekend! xoxo
Sounds like a great weekend! I love when we got a new bed. Queen just didn't fit our family anymore :)
