See this gorgeous ring…
It now lives on my sister’s hand! SHE GOT ENGAGED ON FRIDAY!!!!!!!!
(Photo taken by the most amazing Niki Martins… check out her blog and she just posted more gorgeous pictures of themHERE!!!!)
If you are a new reader to my blog then you probably don’t know my sister very well yet but if you read my blog when we lived in Utah then you saw her on it all of the time. We hung out at least every other day when I was living in Utah and she is my bestest friend (besides Brilly) and the coolest thing in the whole wide world. I have NEVER EVER seen my sister happier than she is with her now fiancé. Billy and I got to know him over the summer and we both approve and love him so much! Her kiddos adore him and the whole situation is perfect. When my sister is happy then I am happy. Let the wedding festivities begin!
I am sure if enough of you ask for her to share the engagement story in the comments than she will do a post about it:)
—————————————-
We had our normal Sunday activities: sleep in, church, eat delicious foods and hang out with friends.
Billy, I told you to edit out all of the things on the floor so that people would think I know how to clean.
Have you ever had mashed potatoes IN your soup? If you answered no to that question then tonight is the night that you should try it. The other thing you MUST try before you do anything else is pretzel rolls…SO good. My cutest friend made homemade butternut squash soup with mashed potatoes and chives and a beautiful salad and two types of rolls. I think I might go over to their house every night for dinner.
When I was at the store the other day I started getting ingredients for a dessert that I found on pinterest. My cart was full of that dessert’s ingredients when my favorite ice cream happiness appeared in my brain randomly and so I put back everything that was in my cart so I could make this beauty. My friend said it was heaven in her mouth.
Her little girl is the cutest thing ever and so active, makes me excited for Brooke to be running around.
Happy Monday Runday!

Runday Monday!! Bring it on! :D
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! to your sister and her fiance!! They make for an INCREDIBLY attractive couple!! One of my excellent friends from ED treatment (with whom I ran our first half marathon in September) was the last of my friends to get engaged. She’s planning a fall wedding for next year and I could NOT be more excited. Her boyfriend proposed along the edge of the canal after the race. My heart was just SOOO happy when she told me (she wouldn’t have run it without my prodding ;) ).
Also — your desserts have encouraged me to try more and more adventurous and daring treats. I honestly can’t thank you enough!! It looks AMAZING (as usual)!!
Shari
Congratulations to your sister! :)
Also: I LOVE your turquoise necklace in the picture where you’re holding Brooke. So pretty!
Abby @ Change of Pace
A huge congratulations to your beautiful sister!
One of my best girlfriends got married a few weeks ago out of town. A small group of us went to that and then she had a big party at home the next weekend. It was fun to celebrate two weekends in a row!
Nicole@TheKidlessKronicles
Congrats to your sister! That is exciting news.
A friend in NJ and another in Boston are the last ones I can think of that got engaged.
No running today. Did two runs yesterday. Might go sit in the hot tub at the gym though.

Katie @ Peace Love & Oats
Congratulations to your sister!!! That’s wonderful for her and her gorgeous little children! I, sadly, am not having a run day… My IT band is not improving so I’m skipping the first week of half training and not running… I had to watch a girl who had the same running shoes as me run on the treadmill in front of my elliptical. It was so sad.
Amanda @ .running with spoons.
EeeEEeeEE! Congrats to your sister! I would love to hear more about her engagement story! The last person I know who got married was my cousin this summer, but she lives in Europe and I wasn’t able to go. Boo. I love weddings… especially when cake and dancing are involved ;)

HilJo

Ahhh I’m SO happy for your beautiful sister! She and your adorable nieces and nephew deserve the best! I think she should totally share her engagement story. ;) One of my best friends from high school just got engaged, and I am so excited for her. Weddings and getting married is the best! My ring is pretty simple – white gold with a round cut diamond and two little diamonds on either side of it and then just a white gold wedding band. Simple and perfect, I love it.

CONGRATULATIONS Hungry Runner Sister!!! Such a GORGEOUS ring! Please tell the story!!! I love engagement stories!
The last person who got engaged was my friend of 17 years! She’s getting married in 6 weeks. One of my best friends got married in September and I got married in August.
My ring is so beautiful. The stone is a family heirloom on my husband’s side and belonged to his grandmother (I was so touched when I found that out). He had the setting custom made for it. It’s set on a thin band covered in smaller diamonds and my wedding ring matches the engagement ring. It’s white gold.
Sandy
Congratulations to your sister! I would love to hear her wedding story and her ring is beautiful!
Caitlin @ This Bride's Joyride

Blaire @ Just Been Running
Congrats to your sister, that is so exciting! Her ring is absolutely gorgeous!

Zoe
Heck yes we want to hear the engagement story!!!!!!!!!!!
One of my sorority sisters just asked to see who would be interested in running a half marathon and a 5k- I totally thought of you! They’re on different days about a week apart so I might suggest that we do the half for time (or whatever people want to do) and then the 5k a week later in elf costumes and go just for fun and pictures!
Megan D
Yay!! I am so excited and happy for your sister! That’s is awesome. Is this the same guy that I saw running with everyone on Memorial Day?
I went running this morning before wee had to leave AZ and I totally got lost. I didn’t bring my phone with me either (stupid) so I ran to a Starbucks and called my mom to come and get me. Lol. I felt like I was 11 again. ”hi. I am lost. Can I use your phone to call my mommy?’ Probably the most interesting 8 miles I have ran in a while ;) It felt so fabulous to be running outside in the warm weather at the 5am hour though. Had to laugh when I saw a lady walking her dogs with a heavy parka on!!
That pic of you holding Brooke=love. You are so gorgeous, friend! Hope you have a great today and a great run!
Elizabeth @ Southern Color
Congrats to your sister! The ring is gorgeous and so are the pictures!! :)
Suzanne
Congrats to your sister!!
I have a solitaire diamond that I just got back from getting fixed. All my prongs were bent. Probably from football/softball/weight lifting/being generally clumsy with my hands.
My husband’s best friend got engaged in April and is getting married in February. It is going to be a top-of-the-line shindig and I can’t wait for it!
Mallory
CONGRATS to your sister and family Janae! He looks like such a nice guy and your sis looks so happy/glowing! Obviously we saps want to hear the engagement story:) please post about it!
Jenn@ Run It My Way
Congratulations to your sis, they make a beautiful couple!! I miss seeing pics of your little nieces and nephews on the blog. And your sister is absolutely gorgeous!! Vote here for a post on the engagement story, I’m the biggest sucker for hearing other people’s engagement stories!!
RUNDAY for me today!! It’s dreary and rainy today and I know I’ll be procrastinating running after work today so I’m going straight to the gym instead for the treadmill.
Question!! I’m buying a treadmill and the C900 is on my short list. How do you like yours? Would you recommend it?
susette
What exciting news for sure! I am super duper happy for Rachelle and I hope you get to be there for the wedding. You wouldn’t not miss I’m sure right?
Janae
I will definitely be there! We need to do froyo when I am in town for thanksgiving! The pics from your trail marathon are incredible!!!
Kate @ Run with Kate
So, so, so, so happy for your sister!! She seems just as genuinely sweet and kind as you and this is amazing news! I would LOVE to hear the story. Luckily, you get to see her really soon, right??? Yay!!
You have such a beautiful family and your sister’s engagement photos are gorgeous.
All smiles over here. I love love.
Toby B.
I haven’t commented lately (though I’m still a faithful reader), but sister HAS to share the engagement story. She totally deserves to be happy! BIG congratulations! And your still adorable Janae!!
Janae
How are you?!?!? Her girls love your dresses!!! Froyo when I come to town this month?
Krystal
Congrats to your sister!!! How exciting! I vote for her engagement story to be told!
I just got engaged a month ago (exactly) and am getting married in exactly 11 months! My ring is beautiful and he designed it himself – it is oval shaped with three diamonds on each side of it, set in white gold. My wedding band has smaller diamonds on it and fits perfectly underneath my engagement band. I can’t wait to be married :-)
I’m going for a run today! Probably on the treadmill at the gym so I can get in some strength training – just found my wedding dress, so it’s time to get my body in tip-top shape!
Jaeme + Randy
Congratulations to your sister! I actually saw them with her kids at Discovery Park when I was hugely prego with Kate this summer. I thought about going up and telling her I knew you, but then I was sort of embarrassed that I recognized her from your blog so I didn’t. I felt a little stalkerish haha. But they were very cute together! My mom said they looked like barbie and ken :).
I love homemade asphalt pie! That is my birthday cake every year.
Janae
That is so fun you saw them!!! How are you and Kate? When are you going back to utah?
Jaeme + Randy
Kate and I are good. It’s so fun to see your posts about Brooke since they are so close in age :). New York is going okay but is a big adjustment for me. I definitely haven’t made as many close friends as you guys yet, I think that is awesome you guys had basically instant friends there!
I’m flying back to Utah on November 30th and will be there until Jan 7th! I can’t wait! You guys are going back for Thanksgiving, right? Then will you be back for Christmas too?
Rachelle
Major congrats to your sister. She is absolutely beautiful and I am so incredibly happy for her.
natalie @ southern fit foodie
YAYYYYYY for your sister! I know that she is almost as excited as you are. :) I would LOVE to hear the proposal story!
My ring is white gold and has a princess cut diamond with four small diamonds on each side. Daniel designed it himself, and I absolutely LOVE it. Your sister’s ring is amazing!!!!!!!!! It’ll be like weight lifting just showing that thing off to everyone!
Erin
WOOHOO! Congrats to your sister! What a gorgeous ring!!!!!! And YES we need to hear the story. Please and thank you.
Corey @ When We Wander
Congrats to your sister!! Gorgeous ring!! The last person I know that got married was my cousin last winter!!
Maya
That ring is GORGEUS!! Your sister is also a very pretty lady. I would also love to hear the engagement story!
We haven’t had many weddings lately and I’m still waiting to get proposed myself.
I love weddings though, such a fun time for both the couple and the guests!!
No run for me today, I have too much school work to do after working a full day. That reminds me.. got the get back to that!
Have a nice day Janae!
Brittany (Healthy Slice of Life)
Congrats to you sister! Such an exciting time :)
Katherine @ Neon Blonde Runner

Jess
Congrats to your sister (and your whole family)! That’s so exciting. :)
Julie
Congrats to your sis – they make a beautiful couple!!!! I think she should definately share her story on the blog. :)
Chris@ oomf running
Oh my goodness! I know Dave! He is awesome, so funny, and a great guy!
Annette@FitnessPerks
YAY! Congrats to your sister!! I remember my engagement & engagement story quite vividily. It was AWESOME. I should write a post about it, actually….
My ring is a round, clear, diamond. Pretty much the exact Tiffany ring. I LOVE it.
Erica
Guest post engagement story. Do a hopeless romantic a favor??
J- love the church outfit. You are my trend setter for sure!
Kristy B
Yay!! Story time!!!
Kirby
Yay, I totally want to hear the story! The latest person I know to get engaged is… me! I live in CO and last Saturday we were on a winter hike with our pups and he got down on one knee… Woohoo! My ring is so special to us — it’s a setting from the 1940s, an antique that had never ever been set with a diamond! So we picked a diamond, a white gold shank, and the setting of course, and custom made our own ring. It’s historic and has a story (what I wanted) but it’s special to us. We love it!
Whitney
Congrats to your sister, her kids and your family! What exciting news!
Please post the engagement story :)
Nicole V.
Share the story! Share the story! Share the story!
Amanda
Yay for your sister! I got engaged last May and I’m getting married in TWO WEEKS!! My kids had a hard time adjusting at first, but the 1.5 year engagement has got them all set and comfy with having a step dad!! WE NEED ALL OF THE DETAILS!
Janae
Amanda…2 weeks!!!!!! That is so so so exciting! You will have to send me a wedding picture:)
Katie
Yayyyyyyyy congrats to your beautiful sister!!!! That ring is so gorge! :) So happy for her! And, duh, she must share her engagement story, helloooo!!
xo
Kim
So excited for your awesome sister!! That is one lucky guy. :)
I wish I was running today. Just running around work and running the kids all over the place, but tomorrow is a run day!!
Last person I know who got engaged was a good friend who is getting married right before Christmas. So excited for her! Makes me kind of miss wedding planning. I think I am going to plan a vow renewal ceremony at Disney for my 20th anniversary.
Emily @ Perfection Isn't Happy
Congratulations to your sister! Her ring is so pretty! I actually think that I was the last of my friends and family members to get engaged, and I was married in July. I love weddings, so I hope someone else gets engaged soon ;).
Sharon
YAY!!! gorgeous ring! Share the story, Rachelle!!!!!!! :D
XLMIC
Wishing your sister and her beloved every happiness :)
Nicole
Big huge congrats to your sister! That is super exciting!
I love your skirt/outfit in that top pic, too. You always look so happy and beautiful, Janae!
I feel like everyone I know is married now! But my gf Natalie got engaged last Christmas, so I guess that was the last.
My ring is a sapphire, which is his birthstone. We eloped with simple rings (still my favorite ring. We just couldn’t wait to get married, haha!) and then he wanted to get me a more proper ring. Three years this month – November 20th!
Yesterda, had my longest (ok not that long, just 10 miles) since marathon 2 weeks ago. I am back to lifting more again and ran a progressive 2 miler after I did strength training today.
We need to hear from Rachelle about her engagement/wedding plans. :)
mary @ minutes per mile
congrats to her! what a beautiful ring! the only thing more beautiful is that ice cream creation ;)
Kay
Aww, congratulations to your sister!!!!!!
Pretzel rolls are the best!!!
Maria
CONGRATS TO YOUR SISTER!!!!!!!
Katie
That’s so exciting! I’m dying for my friends to get engaged because I really want to go to some weddings. It’s such a good time. My boyfriend’s college roommate was the last person I know that got engaged so I at least have that wedding to go to in February. Can’t wait! Let the dance party begin :)
Jade
But is he a runner?? :)
Janae
Yes thankfully ha!
Emily J
Yes! We want to hear the story! You and your sister are so gorgeous!
liz
SO happy for your sister!! She and her fiance looks so cute together :) and of course share the engagement story!
Stephanie Rigg
share the story!! :)
Alexandrina
Last person was a girl who I coached cheerleading!! It’s crazy. So many people getting married and having babies who are all YOUNGER than me. ha. But 26 isn’t too old!! :O
Runday for me! One day I will not complain about these damn hills!! They’re tough!!!
kelsey
Is it SUPER creepy and weird that I was just thinking last week, “I wonder if Hungryrunnergirl’s sister is dating anyone?” HA. Seriously. Such random thoughts we have when we’re pregnant! Anyways, this is amazing news. Congrats to her and her gorgeous children. The pictures are insanely beautiful, as is that ring!
Lizzi
Okay, I’m going to need FULL details. STAT! How they met, how they started dating, how they got engaged. His favourite food. Their starsigns. Everything. GO GO GO!
Tara
Congrats to your sister – they look so cute together! And I LOVE the ring!!
I’m the last person I know who got engaged!! My ring is an 1930 round brilliant cut diamond with two small diamons flanking the center stone and tiny hand-stamps flowers on the edge. I love it :)
Sonia the Mexigarian
Congrats to your sister!! My sister got engaged just this August :)
Ran just over 7 miles yesterday. planning on doing a short run today.
Sandra
Congratulations to your sister and her fiancé!! What a great pictures!! <3
Sarah
Congratulations to your sister!! I would love to hear the engagement story. That sure is a beautiful ring.
My brother in law is the last person I know to get engaged and I couldn’t be happier. He is like a brother to me (I’ve been with my husband for over 19 years) and she is great. I’m looking forward to their wedding next year.
No run today but tomorrow for sure.
Missy
Spill it please (if you want…lol). I adore this news…so happy for the entire family after …
PS- Are the kids gonna be in the wedding party?
Erin @ The Grass Skirt
That’s very exciting! Congrats to your sister. What a gorgeous ring! :)
Karla @ myhighonlife
I want to hear the story-I’m a sucker for that!
It seems like everyone and their brother is getting engaged around me right now. Just graduating college & being in the Army puts me in two categories where people get engaged young. I am patiently awaiting my turn.. sadly about two more years still with my man since he’s still in school.
That ring is gorgeous! I have my dream ring picked out, call me crazy!… :)
Julie
Congrats to your sister! I am a first time commenter, but I had to let you know that I used to know Dave. He’s a GREAT guy! How random when I got my email and saw a familiar face!
Janae
Hey Julie! That is too funny! He really is so great! Hope you are having an amazing night!
dorry
congrats to your sis!! such wonderful news, and what a gorgeous couple! I’m so close with my sisters and we are only happy if the others are happy – the best friendship in the world. sending so much love to your sis and the rest of the family during this exciting time! xo
Kerr

Tiffany
Congrats to your sister! She looks so happy :)
andrea

Missy
Congratulations to your sister! That ring is beautiful!
Carrie Bradshaw
Awwwww!!! This makes me so happy! Congrats to your beautiful sister and her fiance! What a lucky man! So exciting! Your family is awesome.
As you already know, I got married a month ago on the beach in Bora Bora. I am officially Carrie Bradshaw, and it feels so weird to say that now to people. The reactions I get are hilarious. When people ask for my name…and then my last name, there is usually a pause and then a “Are you kidding?!!”. :)
I’m so happy your back is feeling better now, and that purple Brooks outfit looks so cute on you! Miss you Janae. Thought about you a lot this past weekend during all the NCYM drama. xoxo

Ooh. Share the story, please!
My husband and I designed my ring with a jeweller. The center piece has a pattern that we copied from the stonework on the walls of the Taj Mahal (we visited it before we got engaged), and the outsides are two tiny diamond bands. It’s different, and I love it.
