that time we played in the rain

so yesterday it rained all day. there wasn't a moment of sunshine & prettiness -- just wet & gloomy.

just before the sun disappeared we had this conversation:

M: "watcha wanna do?"

L: "i don't know.... wanna play in the rain?!"

M: ".....sure!"

& we did!

not photographed is the fight. i pulled M down the hill, where he slipped & bumped his bum. that initiated the chase & him throwing me over his shoulder. he placed me on the ground & rolled me in the mud. in return, i grabbed handfuls of the think georgia red clay & threw them at him. this probably lasted ten minutes before we realized our toes were numb & it was much colder than we imagined. 

so inside we went to get cleaned up.

have you ever played in the rain?

the happiest 5k on the planet

 

it's defined as the world's happiest 5k & i totally agree. i tried signing up last year but it quickly sold out. so when i heard it would be here this spring break, i convinced most of my family to do it with me. a percentage of our money went to children's healthcare of atlanta. M & i don't run 5k unless the money supports some charity. my rockstar sister-in-law, lindsay, beat us all. like i said, she's a rockstar. i would like to say i ran the whole thing, but my little sister, abby, had to walk some & asked me to stick with her. we still managed to finish under 30 minutes, which was my goal. i recommend this for anyone looking to have a bit of fun, run a 5k in style or to simply donate money to support a charity. already signing up for their return in september. let me know if you were there too or plan to run in september!

don't forget! i'm over at my friend chelsea's blog talking about mine & M's 365 project. stop by!!!

now i'm a real blogger

never posted an outfit post before. most {more like all} of my outfits are enough to write about, but i thought my diy-ed heart jeans were worthy enough to be on the blogosphere. in honor of february i made these with a stencil & a white chalk marker. real easy & a fun way to spruce up any outfit -- especially during this month :) oh, but i'm forgetting the most important part of outfit posts:

jeans: F21, sweater: F21 flat: target scarf: gift

hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful day with the ones they love most. 

now to watch last nights episode of the bachelor!!!
