Random 5 Friday

It's Random 5 Friday, where you share 5 random facts about you, your day, your pets, your kids, whatever! 


1.This view. 'Nuff said.

2. I'm taking an Essentrics class. Some days it kicks my butt.

3. I participated in another tea cup/mug exchange. This time I chose to give and receive a mug. You can read about it here.



4. My husband and I took a drive down to the Great Dismal Swamp last Sunday afternoon. It isn't dismal at all! Such a gorgeous place to visit. We want to go back when we have plenty of bug repellent though. The black flies are massive in size!!!

5.  I'm seriously going to pray for the rain to hold off until Monday. The Air Show over Hampton Roads celebrating 100 years of Langley is tomorrow and I want to see those fabulous planes up close and personal. Yesterday, the Thunderbirds were practicing and they flew RIGHT OVER OUR CAR!!! They were so low, and it was so COOL, and I started crying because I am SO STINKIN' PROUD to be an AMERICAN and a USAF MOM!!! 
(I did NOT take this picture.)

Yep. I'm a little enthusiastic.  

It's a gorgeous day here and I'm off to get my butt kicked, then on to lunch with some friends. 

I hope each one of you has a blessed day!

  4. Hi Anne! Well, I hope you had fun at your butt-kicking class! What a name, "Great Dismal Swamp". Yikes, it sounds horrid, doesn't it? I'm glad it's not what it sounds like.
    Happy mug! You've had some fun with blogging lately!
    It's been a fun weekend for me, two of my three sisters were/are in town, so lots of family time. I love that.
    Have a good afternoon :)

    1. Hey Ceil, Oh man, I was exhausted after the last class! But it's been good for me. More weight is slowly coming off and I am feeling more energized.
      Family time is great! So glad you've been able to see two of your sisters. Mine is coming to visit me in May and I can't wait!
      Have a blessed week ~
