what a weekend!

my oh my! what a weekend it was.

i went to bed early on friday in order to rest adequately for my big run on saturday. i run with a couple of girls from work, and we decided to reward ourselves for our saturday runs by planning a route that finishes at a delicious breakfast restaurant. it makes a run so much easier if you can see sweet, french toast awaiting you at the finish line.

when i returned home, allison informed me that her parents received last-minute astros tickets & off we went to the 6:05 against milwaukee. while the astros lost terribly, we won wonderfully! one minute i am watching the game, and the next minute i am broadcast on the big screen being asked to guess hunter pence's favorite vacation destination. my answer: cabo. thankfully, hunter's answer was cabo as well, and now me +1 guest (allison!) are researching what time of year we should take our trip to the sunny, western coast of mexico. can you imagine!?!



yesterday, we rode our bikes to the first annual FreePressSummerFest. this acl-inspired concert turned out to be a lovely day of listening to music from the top of the hill, watching the crowd dance, sing & mingle, and enjoying $5.00 beer with friends (which was justified by the fact that we had to purchase the beer with kicky converse tickets).

on weekends like this, i could not think of a better place to live.
