First 10k!! Woohoo

I promise exercise won't be an everyday occurrence on here, but I have to write about my first 10k Saturday night!!

It was the Retro Night Glow road race put on by a local organization called Project Giving. I ran the 10k with Jared (hubby) and 3 other girlfriends. I had my best time yet!!!! I surprised myself. I had fun too. I am a bit sore today, but I actually don't feel that bad. It makes me excited for the half-marathon in November. I better get training!! 

Yay for running together!!!

In Christ,

Adrienne

Monday Musings: Fall Edition

Wow!! How about this weather!! It feels like Fall and it is September in Middle Georgia! Woah!

In honor of the weather, we will talk about all things Fall today, so be prepared.

Porches: We will now be sitting on the porch often, as long as the dog doesn't bark at everyone who walks by. Maybe we'll get to know more neighbors with the cooler weather :)

Boots: Oh boots.....need I say more.

Scarves: So pretty, yet so simple. I didn't get to wear my scarves much last year, cuz it never got that cold, but you can bet that I will make a point to wear them this year. They are so much fun!!

Pumpkin Spice Latte: Totally had one last week, and my day was made. That WILL be happening again:)

Pumpkin bread: The hubby has already requested it, so I'm sure it will appear in the Fincher house in the near future. I might share my recipe (not really mine, but I'll send you in the right direction to find it) Maybe I could make some rounds to the neighbors....I know you want to be my neighbor now!

Leaves: I always try to make a point to notice the leaves changing in the fall. It is so easy to get busy and forget to look, but God creates such beauty that just radiates His own beauty. So thankful for beautiful colors in the Fall.

What do you love about Fall??

In Christ,
Adrienne

Birthday Time!

Let's take a minute to celebrate the man in my life. I know you probably do not care to celebrate him, but you should. He's pretty awesome! Although I try to celebrate him all the time, I especially celebrate him now because he just had a birthday!!

Happy Birthday Jared!

(I know it looks like we're underwater...wouldn't it be cool if we were!)

(Dirt Cake!!!!!Yeah!)

He is the perfect man for me, and I thank God for him everyday. 

Have a great Wednesday!

We have a Birthday Boy!

I know I am so very late, but Jared's birthday was last month. It wasn't anything crazy and exciting, but we did our best:) We had balloons, signs, cake, gifts, and friends! I love Jared so so much! He means the world to me! I'm so blessed to have him as a husband and a friend. I pray that God continues to grow, challenge, and encourage him as he begins another year of life. I pray that I can be his help, his encouragement, and his support. Thank you Lord for blessing Jared with another year of life; I pray that it is used to lift up His name in Macon and in the world.

Happy Birthday Jared!!

I've got some post ideas, so hopefully there will be more to come!

6 Months!

It's hard to believe it's already been 6 months! It has been the best 6 months too! I'm so thankful for Jared and the love he has for me, for people, and for his God. It has been so much fun learning to live together, and just getting to enjoy one another, whether we're taking a spontaneous trip to Atlanta, or sitting on the couch watching Lost episodes. I grow so much more in love with him every day. I am so looking forward to our life together, each day. 

Our 6 months was actually on July 1, so this is a little late but oh well. We were gifted a gift certificate to Natalia's, so we decided to use it to celebrate our 6 months of marriage:) It was fun! We dressed up and ate nice food; then we came home and put on our pajamas and sat on the couch! (I made him take pictures first though)

(our apartment has awful lighting, and I haven't figured it all out on this camera)

That's it! Have a good weekend! It's storming here all weekend. I guess we'll be trying to stay dry, and using our new rain jackets, finally!

Foto Friday

I am going to try this blog thing out, and see where it goes.

We'll start with some fun photos from our week; not exciting, but it is what it is. 

It rained this afternoon. It was pretty. 

 My sad-looking plants are getting some fresh rain 

(if you look hard you can see my two red tomatoes!)

 School is so much fun...not.

 He loves Xbox:)

 These are two very different shirts ( I thought they were the same shirt when I opened the package; I am apparently very wrong).

And that's our week. I think we're going to a movie this weekend! Maybe some X-men....:)
