The rodeo, speed/race shoes and a little tiny peak at my wedding dress!

Hooray for rodeo! This Texan approves!<3

Deets of my run today = zero miles, with 10 x zero resting intervals.
(it's rest day, derp.)

I mean…I don't have kids, and not sure what the nephs/nieces eat (I don't get updates like you, ugh!), but one of my fifth graders told me about a cheeseball covered in Nutella the other day. And now I want one.

I actually ran last night so today is a rest day. My si joints are irritated so I need to work on that.
My wedding dress was sort of Greek goddess style. It had an empire waist but my favorite part were the buttons that when all the way down the back. It had cap sleeves and a square neckline. If I ever get married again I probably wouldn’t go with square neckline. I was young. Lol.

Any excuse to wear all the shoes is a good excuse so yeah I wear lots of different shoes ;)

I’m guilty of using the same shoes for everything. I know I shouldn’t, but I do.

I once saw my sister put peanut butter and bbq sauce on a salad. On the same salad. It looked gross but I could be wrong, maybe she’s on to something!)

My wedding dress wasn’t what I expected at all. I always said I would never wear a strapless dress and it was strapless and just not what I ever in my head would have picked but I loved it!

My miles yesterday were 0 and instead opted to take my little girls swimming…that was way more fun than running in the 100+ degree heat (it’s hot and humid in South Texas).
I dip french fries in Wendy’s frosty’s which isn’t really that weird as far as i’m concerned since I’ve seen a lot of people do it.
My wedding dress wasn’t a wedding dress at all…it was a short cupcake poofy dress I saw at Macy’s and I got it for $30! I did elope in Vegas though so it kinda fit the scene perfect!

I got to skip wedding dress fittings – my dress was on clearance at Ralph Lauren and was 100% lycra. Left us more time to talk about important wedding stuff, like cake.

I’ve been wondering about the Brooks neuro. It’s one shoe I’m too familiar with, thanks for sharing.

I have been running in Saucony shoes but once I come back from injury I think I’m going to switch back to Asics. I need more cushion and support in my metatarsals.

My wedding dress was a strapless mermaid fit through the knees and then a fun, girly puff for the rest. I ended up going for ivory because my mom, bridesmaids, and I agreed that white washed me out way too much.
No run today. My body needs some extra rest and my goal right now is getting back from injury before I start training for CIM in August.

My wedding was just over 2 years ago and my dress was perfect. It was a sleeveless slight sweetheart neckline with lace on most of it. The bottom was tulle and lace. It had a corseted back which was item #1 on my list of must haves. I originally wanted one with sleeves or a boat neck, but the second I tried this one on I burst into tears. I still have it hanging in my guest room closet. One of my best friends just got married a few weeks ago. We are planning a day in October that a group of us who recently got married are going to have a girls day at home and watch movies in our wedding dresses. It will be fun to put it on again! =)

3 easy miles on the treadmill. Trying to kick a nagging pain in what I think is my Achiles that I’ve had since January so low and slow for me lately.
My wedding gown was strapless, lace bodice, tulle skirt, kind of goldish ivory.
One of my kids adores ketchup and he will even dip his strawberries in any remaining drops of ketchup on his plate. I refuse to actually put the ketchup on his strawberries for him. I bribed him once to try something new and the trade off was I had to try strawberries and ketchup and it was seriously one of the worst things I’ve ever eaten.

I love rodeos!!!! So glad Brooke enjoyed it too! You all need cowboy hats now! Oh my and those strawberries and cream, yummy!!!!

My wedding dress was pretty simple, I’m not good with fashion terms, but it had a sheer overlay with some pearls on the bodice, a small train, but shorter in front(I found it at a breast cancer dress sale, so it may have belonged to a shorter bride), but I liked it because I didn’t trip and it allowed me to show off my turquoise shoes! It also had a lace-up back, and I had a jacket-shrug made that matched the sheer material.

Your lace looks so pretty!! Eek!! Exciting! :)

I honestly don’t do much speed work…….I know, I need to! I just have 2 or 3 pairs of runners at a time. I only use them for running and I keep strict count of the miles on them. Those new Brooks look cool, may have to get some!
My run today is going to be hot………..hopefully 4 miles, but I expect it to be slow……………going to be over 90 degrees!
My wedding dress was a ball gown……..no train, tulle skirt, nothing that could wrinkle, beading on the bodice, and a halter top. I LOVE IT!!! I put it on again about 8 months after we got married and took some photos out on an abandoned horse farm outside Nashville……………those photos came out beautiful!!
And oreo sandwich………that’s weird! My siblings used to put ketchup on their macaroni and cheese…….I thought it sounded disgusting!

My wedding dress was mostly lace too, with sleeves and an open back. It wasn’t at all what I went into the stores looking for but totally had the cliche moment of putting it on and knowing it was the one!

I have to ask….did you and Andrew match intentionally at the Strawberry Days Rodeo? So cute!

My kids love the rodeo too! Brooke might want a horsie now!
My dress was strapless and simple as I’m short and petite I didn’t want to look like I was playing dress up:) but I love lace!

I love talking wedding dresses! I would choose mine all over again! Big princess ball gown bottom, very simple strapless top with satin little roses scattered about the bottom. The bottom was satin with a layer of tulle. Had to describe but so pretty. It was a Lazaro gown and my eyes are still drawn to all Lazaro dresses! Always makes me smile when I see a wedding gown today that I love and then learn its Lazaro. My taste hasn’t changed!

I wear the same shoes for normal runs, speed work, races, etc. but I use different shoes for lifting and cross training

I have been having some leg pain so I am taking a few days off from running. I am worried it’s another stress fracture so I am being very careful before it takes me out for months! I cross trained and did abs today!

My younger cousin used to eat cheetos with EVERYTHING when she was younger! She always had that gross orange cheese on her every time I saw her haha

Sadly, the Neuros were the first miss for me from Brooks. It was mostly the tongue, it was huge and had really rough edges. It ripped up my ankles. Can’t say I’ve ever paid that much attention to a tongue before.

No run today- I am hooked on my Thursday morning Spin class at the gym, so it was a cross-training day.

I rotate Mizuno Wave Riders and PureCadence randomly right now. Love them both.

Beautiful lace on your dress! Mine was strapless, white, a-line with train and satin-covered buttons up the back, and was covered in beaded embroidery. I loved it but man, was it HEAVY. Even with the perfect fit, I still had to pull it up fairly often, which I didn’t love.

I ordered a “Sorry for what I said at mile 20” tank in the first round of orders. It said it would arrive between May 27-June 6 and I still don’t have it :((( Do you know if anyone else had this problem with teespring?

I love the lace! I can’t wait to see your dress. I have always wanted to go to strawberry days so I will totally have to take my kiddos to the rodeo next year :)

I was expecting bucking broncos in those rodeo pics :)

My oldest son would eat green olives with his yogurt. Strange, because he developed into an extreme non food mixer.

Our next son is the mixer. He likes Cheezits in his yogurt. He almost doesn’t not mix everything.

Growing up we had peanut butter and maple syrup sandwiches, or peanut butter and brown sugar (the best!)
