We LOVE March! First of all, it marks the beginning of Spring
-- and all the beautiful blossoms begin blooming, colorizing up our world bringing life back into it! Both of our birthdays are in March, St. Patty's day-- or "Green Day" (which is both of our favorite colors) and Pi(e) Day on 3.14 ;) Not to mention SPRING BREAK--which I don't really get anymore, but my husband does. . . and so that means he has time to work on projects he's been wanting to and take care of my list of Honey-please-do's;).
Fuzz was gone for my birthday weekend but he made up for it;) I came home from work to find these along with my most favorite present. . . a birthday card from him. Thanks Fuzz!
We celebrated our birthday with our friends and had a double birthday bash for both of us with pizza, cake and cupcakes-- I ate way too much, and was so busy visiting with friends I was a lame-o and didn't snap any pics to document it. O well.. we had fun!
Then it was Fuzz's Birthday!!! I was off that day so we got to partay all day!
We went for the third year in a row to Five Guys for Fuzz's Birthday-- one of our favs!
Then we went to OZ--- it was Ozsome!
Fuzz got to blow out his candles on his Rice Crispy bunt cake I made him (we were caked out for our dbl birthday party, so I thought we'd change it up.)
BIG 29!!!!
We were so excited to find out that the COLOR RUN was coming to Lubbock!! It started in Utah and has caught on like wildfire and has been hugely successful! It's a 5k that you go through like 4 different stations of color and get drenched in colored chalk and then at the very end of the race they have like a concert where they throw out tons of free prizes and color and then have countdowns like every ten min for everyone to throw their chalk up in the air and create a cloud of COLOR!! We signed up with our friends and did it all together-- here's our clean white before pictures:
Lubbock gave the Color Run a permit for 10,000 runners--- but that sold out so quickly that they asked for 5,000 more spots----- here are the apx 15,000 people that showed up for the run!
Here is our Texas Tech Red Raider, and the Color Run Unicorn-- they were shooting out free t-shirts and prizes. Ironically, our friend Ashley that came with us was asked to be there as her other alias, The Masked Rider, but told them that she was actually going to run it as "Ashley" instead.
We arrived shortly after 8:00.
We didn't actually even make it to the actually START of the race until about 10:30.
I got up on Fuzz's shoulders to get an idea of how far we were away from the START. . . unfortunately this picture doesn't even show it. . . . it was so far away! So this is a view of what lie ahead. . . and below is what was behind us. . .
People started handing me their camera to take pictures of them in the crowd, Fuzz began yelling "Who else want picta----$2 two dolla!!" unfortunately we didn't have any more takers;)
After about an hour and a half of standing in line we finally made it to the START!!! We were so excited to finally get running. Our friends lil boy had been the most patient 1 1/2 year old, but he was anxious for us to get moving! He started yelling RACE, RACE, RACE!!!! And was overjoyed when we actually began running!
They had the School of Rock jamming along the route -- Eye of the Tiger BABY!!!
Here are our afters ;)
We decided that this event would make a great TIDE commercial. It took a double cycle to do it. . . however, we were able to get all of our stuff clean again!
