Kiawah Island

This past weekend, David and I traveled to Kiawah Island for a little running. I was registered to run it, but because of my issues with my shins, I bailed out of training several weeks ago. I had started running last week, completing 2 runs semi-successfully. However, after the Marathon festivities the others were in on Saturday, I went out for my run. It. Sucked. When I returned, and after discusstions with the others, it was suggested that I get x-rays. So, I have a Dr. appt tommorrow (to have my facial cheek mole removed), and will get a referrel.

David, however, had a great first Marathon!, at least by my account. Then again, I'm on the sidelines. I think he did terrific!

Kiawah Island is such a beautiful place. Being from SC and having spent a lot of time down in Charleston (living there as well), I had never made it to the Island. David and I stayed in a house with Chris and several others. We had a great time with lots of laughs.

Congrats to all those completing the Half and Full Marathon in Kiawah - David, Chris, Ashley, and Tiffany.



Since I've been gone for so long, you all haven't got to see my sweet little angel (riiighhht), so here are a few of my favorite over the last month. She's quite the little model - I don't ask her to pose these ways.









Ta-ta - off to read your blogs.

Awwwhhh bummer on the shin pain chica :-( I'm glad you're seeing a Dr for it.

YAY to the Mister. I have a hard time believing this will be his last LOL

Grace looks so cute!! At least she doesn't do the Vanna White modeling a $20 toaster pose. That seems to be Keira's theme these days. What tha?!?

Congrats to David, and I'm really sorry you didn't get to run it. However, does this mean you'll do it next year instead? I might get my act together and register before it gets full :)

Also, your pictures of Grace are GORGEOUS!
