Austin Color Run

Posted by: Sarah on: February 9, 2012

This past weekend, I ran in the Color Run. It rained, for days, before the race. Which left the grass track muddy and wet. And after a week of 70*, Saturday started off frigid. Overall, the race was fun, but there were some definite set backs. Turns out, running in ankle deep thick mud is [...]

Hannah’s First Day of Preschool

Posted by: Sarah on: February 2, 2012

Yesterday was Hannah’s first day of preschool. She started the two-days a week program at the same church where Julia has been going since last fall. Since Julia started “school” Hannah has been talking about going non-stop. While we do educational things at home when Julia is gone, I’ve certainly dropped the teacher ball after [...]

Tomato Bisque Soup

Posted by: Sarah on: January 19, 2012

I don’t know why certain foods seem so complicated and difficult to make. Maybe it’s the fancy smancy name. Or the fact that I’m convinced I can’t make food better than a restaurant. Whatever the case may be, I’ve always wanted to make tomato bisque soup but have been too scared to try it. Jonathan [...]

How I Ended 2011 With a Splash – Literally

Posted by: Sarah on: January 5, 2012

I ended 2011 by jumping, fully dressed, into a pool. It was cold. It was crazy. It was awesome. I’ve realized I’m not going to complete my 30 before 30 list by my birthday in March. Sure, I still have time to knock off a few items, but it won’t be fully completed. And I’m [...]

Crocheted Scarf for the Fall – Try New Adventures

Posted by: Sarah on: September 8, 2011

The temperatures in Austin have dropped, and I’m already bringing out my fall clothes! Ok, not really. The temperatures have dropped, giving us low 90′s instead of 110′s. But, with the exception of two mornings this week {when I went outside and it was still in the low 60′s}, I have not brought out any [...]

Sometimes You Just Need Some Motivation

Posted by: Sarah on: September 1, 2011

Maybe it’s because I had just had a really good workout. Or maybe it’s because I really, really miss running. Or perhaps the crazy heat and pregnancy hormones have finally done me in. Whatever the case may be, last night I signed up for the Austin Half Marathon in mid-February. It’s the same race I [...]

Julia’s First Day of Preschool

Posted by: Sarah on: August 25, 2011

Yesterday was Julia’s first day of preschool outside of our home. We’ve been “homeschooling” since last year. After taking off for the summer, we started back again at the beginning of August. But this week, Julia started preschool at a local church. Technically, it’s a mother’s day out program, but they offer lesson plans and [...]

On Becoming a Vegetarian

Posted by: Sarah on: August 18, 2011

I’ve flirted with vegetarianism since high school. By flirting, I mean, I’d try it out for a while but never fully commit. Over the last few years I’ve given it a lot of consideration. However, Jonathan loves meat and doesn’t find a meal to be complete without chicken/beef/fish. We’ve made some compromises over time with [...]

Flexing My Crafty Skills

Posted by: Sarah on: August 11, 2011

Since making my braided headband, I’ve been trying to really flex my crafty muscles. Be it in the kitchen or something for the house, I am keeping an eye out for what will be a fun little project or adventure. Recently on Pinterest, I came across this cute idea of turning an unused picture frame [...]
