Pumpkin and Football!

This morning, I decided to be a bit adventurous. 
I decided to make Pumpkin Oats for breakfast!
I have been reading all of these other blogs and these women are putting Pumpkin in everything! So, I decided to jump on it and try it also! 

Yummy!

In the bowl is:
Dried Oats, Almond Milk, Canned Pumpkin, Cinnamon, and Nutmeg!
I just cooked the oats like the container said to (with Almond Milk instead of water), and then added the rest to taste! I think I added way to much Nutmeg this time. I know better for next time. They are still so yummy though!

I am so glad Fall is starting to hit around this area!
I can't wait to move and be able to have a patio to sit on to enjoy the weather!

Today Cody and I tailgating and going to see the Lamar Cardinals game!
This December will mark 5 years since I graduated college...
This is the first year they have had Football in 21 years!
I always wished I could have gone to a college with football, so now everyone in town is making up for all of those lost years!


This was the very first home game in 21 years on September 11, 2010.

The stadium holds 16,000 people...They sold 20,000 tickets!
It was standing room only and amazing!
They won 21-14!

Tonight will be the second home game playing Sam Houston State...
Can't wait to watch!!!

Pro Compression Giveaway!!!

THANK YOU to everyone who has "liked" my Facebook Page and is now following along with me on my journey!!! And a big, special THANK YOU to everyone who shared my page to help me make it to the big 500!! :) WooHoo!  Now, as I have promised, I have a pair of Compression socks OR sleeves to giveaway from PRO Compression ! This is what PRO Compression has to say about how they work: "PRO Compression socks are designed specifically to deliver both maximum comfort and speedy recovery times. The science is complex, but benefits such as improved blood flow, stability and comfort are universally understood.  The moment you put these socks on your feet and incorporate them into your game, you will feel and understand the difference." I have 4 pairs of PRO Compression Marathon socks and I LOVE them! They have been wonderful for recovery after my last two halfs and after my long training runs! I didn't own any after my first h

Starting over with something new.

Way back in 2012 I started running...for reals... I ran my first Virtual Half Marathon in June and then in the Fall, I started meeting up with a Moms RUN This Town friend 3-4 days a week to walk/run 3-4 miles with our kiddos in the stroller. We started training for the Cowtown Half Marathon and I started dropping weight. By December, I had lost 35 lbs (this was total since having Sophie, not just in 2-3 months) and I looked the best I had looked in a very long while. Then I ran the Cowtown Half in February of 2013, hurt my hip, stopped running, walked the Dallas Rock N Roll Half a month later and then stopped running for good until August of 2013. I then started trying to pick it up a bit here and there while also participating in Stroller Strides.  The thing is...I started gaining weight once I stopped running. Didn't matter if I was doing stroller strides. I just kept getting bigger. First it was just 10 lbs. I kept it at that 10 lb weight gain from August until January

Cowtown Half Recap!

On Sunday, February 24, 2013 I ran my first official Half Marathon!  Before the race started, I met up with these fellow MRTT ladies!  Pic from How My World Runs It was freezing cold (yes 33 degrees is freezing to this Texan! haha) and I was hoping it wouldn't warm up too much because I run so much better in the cold. I ended up wearing my jacket the whole time and was completely comfortable! We had a wind advisory in affect and I think the wind made it even cooler. This was also my first time to run with my new haircut and with my hair down! Didn't bother me at all! Short hair for the win! :) I was in the very last Corral to start. Yes, I know I'm slow. Get Over it!<---Saw that saying on several shirts throughout the race!  Looks like I need one! haha :) I had to post this pic, because I have no idea what I was doing, nor remember even taking it! Haha! About 20 min before the race, I headed to the porta potty's. Yeah, I should have
