My Parent’s 37th Anniversary

I didn’t run today, maybe I will later but as it stands I did an hour of yoga and that feels good enough to be considered training.

I did decide at midnight last night that I needed to make my first ever batch of no-bake cookies… uh why did nobody tell me they were the easiest things in the entire world to make? I feel like my life has not even made sense til now.

I WAS DONE IN 10 MINUTES!

And now I have all of these delicious cookies to stare at while I try to eat healthy… bullocks.

Anyway, today is a very exciting day in this household, today is my parent’s 37th Wedding Anniversary!

And the crowd goes willllllddddddddd………..

Yupp these two crazy kids met because my dad had the hiccups and my mom shoved a lemon in his mouth, 6 months later were married, yes they have been married for 37 years after only knowing each other for 6 months, CRAZY!

They have stayed together after creating 4 of the craziest, messiest, humbled (see the sign above our heads) kids known to man.

They have stayed together even when the road became a little bumpy, or in this case bouncy…

They have stayed together even through my emotional train wreck of teenage years, sorry mom and dad, I didn’t know the world wasn’t actually out to get me.

And after all that life has thrown at them… believe me, we threw a lot at them… they can still be caught holding hands at any given moment.

So thank you mom and dad, for showing me that if you work hard enough and believe in each other, absolutely anything is possible. I love you guys more and more every day!
