#1The top on the List

My first goal when we first moved was to start running with the Waco Striders. I remember when Scott and I were in Oklahoma and I told my friend Meredith I wanted to run a marathon but I never thought it would be possible. Soon after I moved to Texas and started running, the Waco Striders motivated, encouraged, and pushed me to do something I thought I could never achieve... to run a marathon! It gets better though. Scott started running with me. He signed up to run his first half with his mom while I would run my 2nd marathon. During the race I met up with Scott and his mom around mile 8 and the turn for them and to head back. Scott decided he would just run the FULL Marathon with me. After not running really more than 3 miles ever he turned and joined me in running his FIRST marathon ever. Not only did I get to run a marathon but I also got to run one with my husband and best friend. This definitely is on the top of my bucket list!!!

Things to do before the Lone Star State is in the rear view mirror

Scott and I have been talking lately about how God has blessed us in so many ways by moving us to Texas. Although, I didn't believe that when we first found out we were moving away from my cozy hometown in Louisiana. I was comfortable there. And I really didn't like change. God would eventually show me I would. Now that we are here and LOVING every minute of it, Scott and I decided to create a list of things we must do before we leave Texas and return home. We decided due to our location we needed to take advantage of this opportunity and explore TEXAS and places around it. I thank God for opening my eyes to see things in a whole new different perspective and to see the beauty in His Creation.
