Mountain Retreat

Monday is Veterans' Day - be sure to thank any service members, past or present, this weekend. That also means it's a three-day weekend up in here!

It's been a busy week, and today is no different. Let's get right to the high-fiving.

1. THIS is where we'll be all weekend.
Mammoth Lakes
Ok, I'm not sure if those exact spots are where we'll be, but we'll be pretty darn close.
54 degrees for the day time high. Mountains all around. Just my boys and me. Yep, it's bound to be a good time.

2. THESE beauties came this week.
If you're looking for a good stability running shoe I'd highly recommend the Guide7s.
I've been dying for the Guide7's release. No stores around us had them and I have almost no patience, so I ordered them. Love, love, love 'em. Running up in the mountains this weekend is going to be that much sweet in these kicks.

3. THESE are on their way.
Baby Chucks - the cuteness is almost too much.
We have family pictures coming up and Marcus needed a fresh pair of shoes to complete is outfit. I could not pass on the red Chucks. Getting the little man to sit still long enough to tie these might be interesting though.

4. THIS was last weekend.
The Pumpkin Prix! We actually participated, our pumpkin racer was the Duck Commander. While the Duck Commander didn't win it was fun nonetheless!
Other pumpkin racers who participated.
5. THIS video needs to be watched by all mommas out there.
Shout out to my friend, Jennie (who doesn't have a blog, but should!), for sharing.

Have a great weekend!

  2. What size is Marcus in? I have a pair of Navy Blue chucks- high top with a hidden velcro peice(so no tying and retying) for toddler feet. I will have to check the size, they may be 8 or 9. They are in excellent condition and I will send em to ya if ya want em!
