As of late...

Lately, we have been super busy. 
Chad is in panic mode with his boards coming up and I have just been busy. 

Last weekend, we ran in the D'Feet Breast Cancer race.
Most of us ran the 10k (6 miles). Chad and his friend ran the 5k (3 miles).
I was so happy to be there and support our teacher who has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
The weather was great, expect for a pretty strong wind on seawall. 
I ran my best time and even placed 3rd in my age group. I didn't even know until I got an e-mail saying I won a prize! It was great to spend time with good friends and support a good cause. :)


Chad and I have been needing to go on a date since it has been forever since we have been on one.
We looked around and found a graveyard tour done by Galveston Historic Foundation.
So we signed up for it!


Here are some of my favorite grave stones.
The tour lasted an hour and a half was very interesting!
We learned a lot of history and stories of some Galveston families.


And it was great just spending some time with Chad!


I really want to read some non-fiction books about Galveston now.
It does have a pretty cool history.

What has kept me busy lately is my quilt.
I have finally finished the quilt top!!


I love how it turned out! I still have one more class and the hard part has yet to come- the actual quilting but I see a light at the end of the tunnel. I am so glad I took the quilting class. It was been really fun and enjoyable. 

Next weekend, we are going on a trip with all our couple friends. I am so excited and can't wait to get away for the weekend. 

Happy Fall to you all!
