It's Summer!




Friday Night FunPosted by Picasa
We had a great time with friends last weekend. The local BBQ joint puts up a tent in the parking lot and has live music every Friday night. The weather was rainy, but the band kept on playing. We stayed dry under the big ole' tent.
Now that we are done with the home study process, we are trying to stay busy this summer. We are training for a 5K race that will take place on the Fourth of July. It is taking us about 47 minutes to complete the 3.1 miles. It was pretty hard getting started, but we get better with every run. We hope to be running double that amount by the end of the summer. Then we are going to train for the Outer Banks Half Marathon taking place in November.
Poor Hunter. With all the rain and cool weather, his garden isn't doing too well. We did have a good crop of strawberries which I used to make Strawberry-Jalapeno Pepper Jelly. Should have gone easy on the peppers though. Very hot!!
Finalized our vacations plans, finally. We had thought we might go to the mountains. But we decided to head to the beach in OBX. Found a nice little condo right on the beach. Looking forward to revisiting old haunts and trying some new experiences.
