fries & ketchup, please!


                                                                

Yesterday Clay and I enjoyed the evening going out to event for the Ronald McDonald House "Fries with that Wine" in Riverside at The Garden Club.  It was an AWESOME turn out and they raised a lot of money to support such a great cause.  On our drive downtown we talked about how we really enjoyed being involved in the community and supporting local charities.  We always look forward to a night out to dinner since we try to eat in during the work week but we agreed last night that we actually look forward to something like this more because we know our time or donation is all going to support kids who are sick or injured.  It is such a wonderful feeling and it's even better to connect with other people in the community who are doing the same thing!  Always better to know what your money is going towards and that it will make a difference in someones life.  Our friend Bryan put on the event with the Discovery Circle team and they did a fantastic job! 

The handy dandy floral tunic came into play once again!  But...I knew that coming from work and standing on my feet for 2+ hours was in the works so I opted to switch to my boots (outside my "7") so that my feet weren't screaming at me by the time I arrived home. Starting to see people again in the same clothes is actually becoming quite comical.  I thought I'd feel embarassed, but I'm loving the carefree and state of mind I'm in!

                                                            
                                                             Day  12:  easy does it! 

So just how much McDonalds did I eat?!  The ugly truth is exposed.....2 mini packs of fries, 1/2 of a chicken sandwich, 1/2 of a cheeseburger and a half of a hashbrown patty..........and YES, I enjoyed every bite!  Month 2 & Food are approaching fast!!!!!!!!!!
