COME ON GRASS!!!

Jerry and I have been battling our backyard for the past year. It seems that it is impossible to grow grass in the backyard. It is really annoying. Jerry decided to till up the entire backyard and put down some grass seeds. I really hope that it takes! GROW GRASS GROW!!!!

Here's a picture of Jerry with the tilling machine. What a handyman!

Claire's New Bedroom!

For Lauren's Birthday, my mom and I chipped in to buy her Claire's bedding. We finally got it in and it is super cute! It's not to girly, but just right! Here's a picture of Claire's crib.

Here's a picture of Lauren's belly this week! She's really starting to get big!


I've been shopping a lot for Claire lately. I just can't help myself, everything that size is so cute! I can't wait for Claire to be here!

COWTOWN 10K!!!!!

On Saturday, February 27, Jerry and I ran the Cowtown 10K. We've been training for the past couple of months for this race. We've always done 5K with no problem, so we decided to go for the 10K. The morning was a little stressful. We left the house at 6:30 thinking that would give us plenty of time to get their by 7:30...we were wrong.... we got stuck in traffic. Here's a picture of me trying to keep it cool (even though I was freaking out because I thought we were going to miss the race.)

I was totally freaking out on the inside and I was trying to hide it from Jerry, but I think he knew. Here's a picture of the awesome traffic.
This is what time it was... keep in mind we were still outside of downtown and our race started at 7:30.
Here's a picture of Jerry driving- calm... cool... collected... as always

So we waited...and drove a few feet... waited some more... and drove a few more feet. It was terrible! We finally found a parking spot... by that time it was 7:23. At this point, Jerry and I were at an all out sprint to the starting line. Shockingly, right as we ran up we heard the gun go off. So we just went for it. Talk about an interesting warm up... by the time we were starting we were already ready for a break. We ran the entire way. I was so proud of us! There were some pretty terrible hills in there, but we got through them! I'm so glad we ran the Cowtown this year! This was the first of many 10K's and hopefully we can add half marathons and maybe marathon to our resume. I really enjoy running with Jerry. He pushes me to run faster and I push him to keep going. I think we make a great team!

After we ran the race, we met up with Andrea and ate at Ole South.
While I was stuffing my face with pancakes, I could see the marathoners running. It kind of made me feel guilty for eating pancakes... but not bad enough to stop eating.

Lauren and Claire!

So you probably heard....LAUREN IS PREGNANT WITH A SWEET BABY GIRL!!!! I'm very excited! Here name is going to be Claire Elizabeth Mazac and she's going to be a precious angel! Lauren is due May 26 and everyone can't wait to meet the new baby!

Chef Point Cafe

Today Me, Jerry, Jane, and Glenn went to Chef Point Cafe. It's a Triple D restuarant, you know from the show Diner, Drive In's, and Dives on Food Network. The restaurant was in a gas station. It sounds weird... I know! It turns out the owner could not get a loan to open a restaurant. Instead, the bank offered him a gas station. As a result, the owner has a groment restuarant in a gas station. It was sooooo good! I got the Seafood Pasta and Jerry got the stuffed chicken. The best part was the bread pudding. It was so tasty! Jerry has a co-worker that went on a road trip with his family and along the way they stopped at a bunch of Triple D restaurants. I think that would be so much fun! Maybe someday we'll do that and I can blog about all the fun restaurants... it would be like the movie Julie and Julia.... but with Triple D restaurants. I think I might be on to something! Here are some pictures!
