March 4, 2014 I know this is a little late, but I wanted to document the weekend. Warning: There are lots of pictures! 🙂 The Princess Half Weekend was our first runDisney event last year.

I was worried and nervous since my training hadn’t been the best due to weather and being under the weather some. The morning started off a bit chilly but once the race …

Winter Storm 2014
January 29, 2014 Well, the last time schools shutdown for possible snow, people laughed and criticized the public officials. Last time we got no ice and about 5 individual snowflakes. This time, there are praises and kudos to them. This beats all I’ve ever seen in Northwest Florida. We have ice and lots of it. Schools have been closed since …

Happy 2014!
January 1, 2014 Did 2013 go by in a flash or was it just me? Twinkle Toes tried to stay up until midnight but only made it to 8:50. I managed to stay up to see the ball drop in New York. That’s late for me. In 2013, I decided that I actually enjoyed running. It all started with the …
