AMAZING!

Oh my goodness what an Amazing weekend.  If you have been following my posts you know that Saturday was the BIG Egg Scramble 5k that Melanie and I have been planing since August.  2 1/2 weeks ago we only had 22 people signed up, we were wondering if all our hard work was going to be worth it.  Then by Thursday we had 78 people, and we were feeling a little better.  We continued to pray and we were not disappointed - final racer count after registration closed Saturday at 5pm ....... 138!!!!

It was crazy and awesome and hectic and wonderful! We got a lot of compliments on how organized it was - which is amazing because this was our first year!
We are already planning next years - mark your calendar for April 4th 2015 Egg Scramble 5k!!

Find the links below to see great pictures from the day.  I'm still grinning from ear to ear!

Jocelyn and I wore matching shirts!! Here are those pictures.  She has 3 visits to CHOP this week, and might have to have surgery for her tube, so keep those prayers going for her.

an up and a down

So I awoke today to put on pants that use to be tight fitting normally!!! Wahoo!

Then I went to weigh in .... And to my surprise I gained 2 pounds.

Ugh! So goes my weight loss journey. I am chauking this weeks weigh in to my body adjusting to the changes I'm making.  I am choosing to celebrate my pants fitting better and to my success in speed training this week. 0:20 more seconds off my 1 mile training time.

Non-scale victories are just as important to celebrate.

We are down to 9 days before the egg scramble 5k race I have been helping organize since august! It's crazy that it is finally here.  This next week and a half are going to be crazy busy with details, buy I love it!

Update on Jocelyn (by IRUN4 buddy) - her results from her brain MRI show that her brain tumor is stable, which is good news!!!   She was not able to go in for the overnight EEG because the hospital called and said they had a lot of patients with the Flu.  If Jocelyn gets the flu she has to have a hospital stay, because he immune system cannot fight it.

Happy Thursday, may it be filled with many blessings.

Happy Monday - Tutu pictures

Happy Monday morning to you all!!!  Go a nice run in with my tutu on Saturday.  It was back to being humid in Florida, but its all good, just means I'm strengthening my lungs more.

I promised pictures of the tutu so here is the in process and the finished product of mine and Joceyln's tutu's and our running shirts!!!  Hope you enjoy and much as I did making them.

It says: What makes someone special? I suppose it all depends.  It's what's unique in each of us. - Ariel (Jocelyn's favorite character!!!) 

Please pray for Jocelyn she is having a lot of pain and her tube is bleeding, they go back to CHOP on Tuesday and hopefully the doctors can help.  She also starts intense physical therapy on Tuesday because her vertebraes are smashed up against her ribs and her spine is shaped like a S.

Joy is still in the hospital - she is doing well thought she has grown and inch and after dropping some weight is gaining weight again.  

Happy Monday, may your day be filled with many blessings. 

P.s. If you wouldn't mind could you please help spread the word about the 5k race I'm helping organize - its on April 19th at 5:30 pm.  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Egg-Scramble-5k/382247451904728
