Five on Friday

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!! 
 Sending lots of LOVE your way today!!

[ONE]

I'm over winter.  It is very much overstaying its welcome this year.  Totally done with it.  I am training for two races right now...and I'm not a happy camper on the treadmill.  At this rate, I'm just hoping there isn't still snow covering the ground when I run the first one in mid-March.  Come out and play, Mr. Sun!  I know you're just dying to melt away all this messiness :)

I was blown away by the presence and confidence of Michael Sam throughout his recent interview with ESPN.  In case you aren't familiar, Michael announced he is gay.  He was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year with the Mizzou Tigers in 2013.  He is projected to be drafted in May.  I can't wait to see where he lands and how he contributes to that team on the field in 2014.  He seems to be a very intelligent young man that knows what he wants and isn't afraid to go get it.  He's also got some great people in his corner based on what I've seen so far.  For one, the timing of his announcement was nothing short of perfect.  And he is a very marketable fellow.  Look forward to following his story this off-season.

I loved getting to see my niece and nephew this past weekend!  They are getting so BIG!  And I just love them so much.  It was awesome to get to spend a bit of time with them...even if it wasn't nearly enough!

Chris and I had to cancel our Vermont trip for the third time due to weather this weekend!  We rescheduled for next weekend so please keep ALL your fingers crossed that we will finally get to go then!  Seriously, we already had to cancel in December AND January.  We'll be having some impromptu Valentine's day fun at our favorite hibachi restuarant tonight instead!

I'm sad to say I haven't too much of the Olympics coverage yet.  Boo!  I need to fix that real soon though.  (Anyone know when the figure skaters take the ice, next??)  Instead, we've been catching up on the last few weeks of the amazing True Detective series.  Are any of you watching?? 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

Andrea :)
