I love flip-flops, beach days and sundresses. Team Summer all the way.

I enjoy occasionally baking with pumpkin and drinking pumpkin beer–and I love cooler runs–but otherwise, fall is take it or leave it for me.
BUT! I have been waiting for this October all year.
On deck:

Junior League Homecoming this Friday

A friend’s wedding

An ex’s wedding

Army Ten-Miler
AND FINALLY!

MARINE CORPS MARATHON. 24 days from now.
So, time to get some sleep.
What are you excited for in the month of October?









30th Birthday 1st Half Marathon EXTRAVAGANZA THIS SUNDAY! October rocks. Have a great one!!

I’m excited for endless pumpkin patches with my toddler and FINALLY going sub two for a half marathon (she says, hopefully).

Pumpkin ale sounds yummy. Very seasonal!
Looks like you are going to have a great October! I’m loving October because of…pumpkin doughnuts! SOOOO good! SOOOO bad for me! : ) Guess I better get on the running trail for making that comment!

I’m excited for a much deserved trip to Mexico this month!!! I do love the change of seasons but I’m not quite ready for the next one. Winter and I just don’t get along.

@Lauren: FUN!
Hey Theodora! I am not sure if you will recognize me with my new blog but I am Megan and we have met a few times at various blogger events.
Anyway looks like you have lots of fun events coming up. I recently joined The Junior League myself and I have prelim training coming up later this month. I will be in the Wednesday night accelerated class. A few things I volunteered for is the House Tour on the 19th and hanging out sponges at the marathon.
Anyway that was long; have a nice day!
I’m kind of excited for October to be over because we’re going on a 2 week vacation to visit family in Europe in November!
i’m excited because my boyfriend is taking me flying for the first time (he’s a pilot) and I’ve never been up in a small plane before!! Also embarrassingly excited to go to the Harry Potter studio experience!

October will rock because of the cool weather–FINALLY, my favorite race, the Wicked 10k in Virginia Beach, and pumpkin everything. Can’t wait to hear about the MCM–considering that for my first marathon next year!
I bought my husband a pack of pumpkin ale last fall and he wasn’t a big fan BUT I was later told that there are definitely some better ones than others… Suggestions?!

I LOVE October! Normally I’m just like you – a total summer girl – but October has my birthday, the Long Beach Half Marathon (which was my first ever race last year), and a dear friend’s wedding the day before my birthday. And, I absolutely adore all things pumpkin. I can’t wait to bake!

I’ll be looking for you!

This month I am looking forward to… one month closer to spring?
This month is my birthday. I’m kind of dreading it.
