12 Egg Omelet

  While we were in Seattle, we went to a place we saw on Man vs. Food called Beth's Cafe.  On the show, the host was trying to eat the 12 egg omelet...he couldn't finish.  The omelet is so large, they serve it on a pizza pan.  Three of us shared the dish and we still couldn't finish!

Seattle Rock 'N' Roll Half Marathon

  June 22 was our 7th Rock 'N' Roll half marathon for 2013.  My cousin and her husband, who live in the Seattle area, did this run with us.  Well, they ran the same half marathon, but were much faster than we were (by a lot!); so we didn't actually run the half marathon together, but we got to hang out with them before the race.  Also, training together (and tracking each other's work outs) through our Runkeeper app was fun too!


 



 At this race, we got 3 medals.  That's right...3!!!  We got the Seattle Half Marathon medal for finishing, the Pacific Peaks medal for doing the Portland and Seattle Half Marathons, and the Rock Legend medal for doing 7 in one year!  We truly felt like rock stars, clanging around our bling all afternoon.  Hey, all those medals were actually really heavy and my neck started to get stiff!

 We also got to hang out with our friends that do all the runs as well (remember we ran into them in Portland?).  Our friend on the far right, ran the FULL marathon (notice his medal ribbon is red).


  As usual, we had our Geico sponsored massages after the race.  Here I am with my friend, the Geico Gekko.

  Our next scheduled race was for July in Chicago but we decided to skip it to let my knee heal.  Yes, I was still having problems with my knee during this race.  It is much better now and I have started training again for our next race.  3 more to go to become Rock Idols (total of 10 in one year)!!!

Little Asian Birthday Girl

Here is a post I had not published yet...
  

As I mentioned in earlier posts, I have quite a few birthdays in March and April.  The last few cards (turtle, monster, and this one) were made in just a few hours.  I was running out of time and needed to send these cards out before I missed their birthdays.
  I really love my Sister Stamps.  They are so cute!  I also got the pretty washi paper from the $1.50 Japanese store near my house.  I got 20 sheets for only a $1.50!  The store is called Daiso and I would highly recommend stopping by.  I can spend hours in that store looking at all the knick knacks.


Hello again, my friends!

Hi Everyone,

  I apologize that it has been so long since my last post!  Honestly, I didn't think anybody really read my blog until many of you reminded me that I haven't posted anything for some time.  ;-)
   
  Thank you for following my blog!  And I promise I will not let you down again.

  For the past few months, we've still been running and I've still been making cards and working my Rodan+Fields business.  I'll post something every few days to catch up...
