Yours Truly

Hi from sunny soCal and six9eleven!!

What is six9eleven?
Well that is the day my life changed forever, for better.

It's the day my beautiful, perfect, amazing
{I have to stop here or this could go on...}
 daughter was born.

nugget's first day

Nugget at 2.5 years

My daughter is referred to as "nugget" when I write since it's a nickname that stuck.

I started to blog for a couple of reasons.

Reason #1

It's a way I can share with family (and YOU if you so choose...) what our little family 

{especially the nugget} is up to.

Reason #2

Be accountable for {some-what} healthy life choices and my running and training. 

{trust, it helps}

I am {so very} fortunate to be a stay-at-home mama, 

thanks to my awesomely handsome husband.

My running story.

It's pretty simple really.

I was asked by a friend [Dec. 2011] to join their Camp Pendleton Mud Run team.

My "yes!"" answer was the perfect kick in the booty I needed.

In the past I had run off and on, 

but we weren't ever to serious about each other.

Running and I dated through January 2012, 

and started going steady after about 7 weeks, 

by following this plan from Active.com.

I accomplished the CPMR in June of 2012.

I am now training for the Triple Crown!

I am a runner, a mother, a wife.

I love to cook and bake.

I'm here to share my stories with you.

Thanks for stopping by!
