7/24/11 Sunday

Sunday, I got the privilege of spending the whole day with Gentri. We did a bit of birthday shoppin for our other sis (Bre) who's birthday was the 28th! Decided to check out this cute little store, Charming Charlie...  We were in heaven haha. I couldn't walk out of that store without buying something haha lets just say that. I bought a fun new hat which is the first thing on my list, and some new shades :). Fyi, buying a fun new hat, definitely ups the mood! G and I spent the whole rest of the day at barnes and noble writing/doing homework. It was a rather productive day!

7/26/11 Tuesday
At work, a student's mom came up to me and asked, "So are you Brooke?"
"My son talks about you at home. Says your really nice and he likes you a lot."
Compliment that made my day, especially because I was not feeling well... Wednesday and Thursday I was at home in bed, sick with Bronchitis, an ear infection, and a cold.

7/29/11 Friday
Friday after work, Jhy came to my inlaws' for dinner, then we went a target trip to find our Warrior Dash outfits. Earlier this week I had mentioned to Josh, if he could get The Brave Little Toaster from his Netflicks, that would be awesome! Surprisingly he was able to ha, so he brought it over to my house and I watched The Brave Little Toaster with Josh and Jhy hahaha. This concludes the last thing on my list. Although I did not go all out and pop popcorn and make a drink, the movie definitely brought me back to home with old childhood memories of watching that movie with my sisters years ago.

Took my antibiotics, some cough syrup, Excedrin back and body= ready for the Warrior Dash!
3.1 hellish miles with 12 crazy obstacles!
Connie, Stephanie, me, Gen, Jenna - Before


Ty and Ryan - Before
Connie, Gen, Ty, Jenna, Stephanie, Ryan, and I all ran at 5:00pm, all FINISHED, and did all of the obstacles. When I came to the last obstacle, Gen and Ty (who had already finished and were watching people cross the finish line) were yellin at me to, "Do a cannon ball!" in this giant mud pit that later had barbed wire for us to crawl through. So..................... I did. Couldn't hardly open my eyes to see where I was crawling. Had mud literally every place you can think of (in my ears, eyes, up my nose, in my mouth, and all up my shorts).
about a mile in. Jenna and me runnin
2nd to last obstacle, jumpin over fire :)
what I looked like right after I crossed the finish line! 



Gen and me - After!


And this looks good... haha
After getting hosed off by the fire hose.

dirty, muddy sneaker donations. Run these through a car wash pretty much, and send them off to 3rd world countries.
After the race, we ordered 5 Large pizzas to eat by the pool while we hung out and listened to music.
Great Day. I am happy and proud to say I did the race, because I DO NOT run hahahaaha. Add this to the list of new experiences here in Kansas!
