Tuesday is our 19th wedding anniversary but I will be flying to Sacramento for business. Since Mother’s Day is the following weekend I’m not sure when we’ll officially celebrate.
That’s okay because nearly everyday is a celebration of finding the right one. Enough mushiness, let’s get to my favorites from this past week.
Around the Web
Here are some of the best blog posts I read this week.
Curious about foam rollers? Don’t miss the basics of foam rolling at The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans.

Read these 10 life lessons from running (I would say any team sport) from Live from La Quinta.

Thanks for the shout out. I appreciate it very much 🙂

Happy anniversary! Hope you’re able to find some time to celebrate. Thanks for sharing my post. I agree that most sports provide a lot of life lessons, but I still feel that running is something special and adults and children learn so much. As our cross country t-shirts say: Our sport is your sport’s punishment. 🙂 Anything that hard must teach us a lot.
Thanks for featuring us 🙂 Happy Anniversary!
Happy anniversary! Hubby and I will be celebrating 20 years in October. A Las Vegas trip is planned!
Thanks so much for featuring my gift guide! And you’re right — a fitness tracker would be a great addition. Happy (almost) Mother’s Day!
