Spring



So few things have happened since my last post. To start off the first weekend of Spring Break I ended up going up to Dallas with mom to watch her do the Inaugural Rock 'n Roll half marathon. Dad was originally supposed to go but this total douche bag/jackass/many other things guy my dad works with told him that he had to work Friday and Monday, the 2 days that he had taken off so they could drive up and back down. Actually the guy originally he needed to be back because he had to work on Monday and that would mean that mom and dad would have to drive back down Sunday afternoon...after my mom had run 13.1 miles, obviously the guy has never done any kind of running like that...my mom was so pissed, I think if the guy was in front of her she would have kicked him in the gonads, I would have like to also! But it was nice going up to Dallas, got some good pictures of the downtown area.
Yesterday Mom, Dad and me went to Enchanted Rock. When the weather man and weather lady said that the weather was going to be good this weekend I figured we had to go and do something. So we went and hiked up to the very top, almost got blown off, and then hiked our way down the round about way. Me and dad took pictures, Dad more than me bc well I wanted to get to the top and rest as fast as possible because DAMN that rock is friggin' steep. Not to mention that when we got to the "smooth" part the wind picked up, it was pretty constant with a few burst to knock you over if you weren't paying attention. When we got to the top and were looking around a guy actually had his hat blown off and went running after it with no hope of actually catching as it flew off the "mountain" top. All in all it was the perfect day, went home and participated in Earth Hour (did you?!) took a nice lock hot shower to help with the first real sunburn of the year (my face/ears/hair part got sunburned when I was waiting for mom to cross the finish line at the marathon but that always happens so it doesn't count and it was only red for the day where as my arms are still fairly red today =p), then applied A LOT of lotion to my arms and legs and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. It was really nice too because lately I haven't been sleeping very well, but last night I slept all through the night and woke up with some good energy and ready to take on the last baking class (='( Every weekend in March was a different baking class, next Sunday starts 'healthy' cooking?)at William-Sonoma this morning!
And now for your view pleasure, a few pics from Dallas and Enchanted Rock.
