I really do not have that much content lately. My life is the same ‘ole thing every day. Wake-up, get ready for work, work all day (occasionally meet various friends for lunch or coffee in there), come home and walk Chloe or take her to the park to play fetch, make dinner, go to running or yoga, come home and eat dinner, watch TV or read, bed.

Sleep, rinse, repeat.

I have a few posts rolling around in my head about running and training. but I need to spend some dedicated time on my computer to write them. Hopefully this Saturday morning this will get done!

In the meantime, I’m still regularly taking many, many pictures on my iPhone using instagram so I thought I’d share a few more that I’ve collected over the last couple weeks! Photos are always fun to look at and a photo is worth 1,000 words, right? Right?

Webster has just recently started really camping out in this little house he’s had for over a year. I find it painfully cute and also hilarious when he reaches a little paw out to whack Chloe as she walks by!

I’m in love with my new, super colourful, scarf that I bought off etsy a couple weeks ago! It really brightens up some of my more “boring” outfits!

My new favourite picture of Eric and I. Taken while snowboarding this past weekend!

Here’s Chloe trying to intrude on my bath the other night. She kept sticking her head in the door and then whining when I told her to get out! Lol

I try to make coffee at home as much as possible but I do end up going to Tim Hortons about once a week. Mostly because it’s cheaper and on my way to work. I always get an XL coffee with two cream. Well I went the other day and apparently there XL coffees have practically doubled in size! I took a picture of it next to my 1L water bottle so you could get an idea of how huge this coffee is. Wish they’d told me  before I ordered so I could have got a L! I was definitely a little jittery from the extra caffeine that day.

A fun package the BMO Vancouver Marathon sent me for being a Run Van Blogger. A new running hat, gloves, t-shirt and keychain! Plus some rack cards that I dropped off at the yoga studio. If you’re interested in running the BMO Vancouver Marathon sign up quick, I saw on Twitter they only have about 100 spots left!

And last but not least, the gorgeous flowers Eric sent me at work yesterday for Valentines Day. They also had a really sweet card that made me tear up a little. What a great hubby-to-be

Do you use your phone to take lots of photos? If so, what kinds of pictures do you have on your phone as of late?

I take an absurd amount of photos with my iPhone each week. It’s obnoxious really. One of my latest obsessions is instagram. I’ve had instagram since I first got my iPhone but I’ve only recently become re-obssessed with it after not using it for months.

Since I’m in a bit of a blogging rut lately with not much to say here are a few of the photos I took on my iPhone this week using instagram!

Whenever I run lately I try to tag an extra mile or two on at the end with Chloe in the trails behind our house. I can run in there with her because she can be off-leash and it’s good for my high energy dog before she spends most of the day in the crate! On Thursday’s run we actually got to witness the sunrise too

I was flipping through this book when Eric and I were at Chapters the other day Christmas shopping and it is SO AWESOME. It has every country in the world in it with great, high-res photos. I know I already made my Christmas list but I would love this book too. I just might have to buy it for myself and then go through it with post-its to keep track of all my travel dreams

I ordered new running shoes off of Amazon during the Cyber Monday sales this week and they arrived yesterday. I got them for about $70 cheaper than I would at the local running store. Score! I am saving these babies for when marathon training starts, which is in one month. Eep!

A couple months ago I was going to Starbucks 2-3 times a week which was ridiculous considering a latte costs over $5 right now. I decided I was only going to get Starbucks once during the work week and that would be on Friday’s. Today was my self-imposed “Starbucks Treat Day” and I picked up a non-fat, extra-hot, light-on-the-whip, gingerbread latte this morning. I must say, after a completely hectic morning sipping on this made me feel much better!

Oh, and since I’m talking about instagram today check out this awesome post that just popped up in my reader by Caroline! I starred it and definitely plan on doing something like this with my instagram photos in the new year!

Do you take a lot of photos every week? Do you use instagram?

Happy Friday! XO

I came home to the best mail day EVER on Monday night. First, the new issues of Runners World, second a HUGE box full of SWEET running swag from Aron at Runners Rambles (I won a huge giveaway on her blog last month!) and third a disc with all of our engagement photos on it!!!

Did Aron spoil me with sweet stuff or what?

I am not going to post ALL of the engagement photos on the blog but I have put most of them in an album on the blogs Facebook page. You can CHECK THEM ALL OUT HERE!

I really love all of them so much, though. I can’t stop raving about what a great job my friend Rebekah did! It’s going to be so hard to pick out which one we should use for the Save the Dates!

Of all the amazing photos we got, I think the one below is my absolute favourite. I can’t help but smile huge when I look at it. I have no idea what was so funny but most likely Eric said something ridiculous or silly. Eric makes me laugh so hard every day with just random things he says so I feel like this photo really represents us!

I need to spend a week or so mulling over all the pictures and then I’ll probably come back with a few options asking for advice on which one to use for the save the date!

Happy Wednesday XO
