After the race today I went to visit my mom and Matt. While there we took the perros for a walk. Roxy is the black lab mix on the left. She’s my dog 
I bought her for myself after I begged everyone who would listen that I wanted a dog for Christmas 5 years ago. 
About a year later (while I was still living at my mom’s with the Rox), my brother got a dog, Bailey. 
Bailey and Roxy are best friends, so I didn’t want to separate them when we moved to Maryland.
Now that we’re back I try to visit as much as possible, but I can’t take both dogs (um, one of them isn’t even mine). I’m torn because I miss the Rox, but I think she’s happier there? She has a huge yard (versus my patio) and a boyfriend.
I mean, she looks happy, right?
I taught my mom how to make Spaghetti Squash and then I proceeded to eat 3 bowls of it! There was also a handful of nuts and an apple somewhere in there.
Dinner was random and unpictured– veggie egg rolls and broccoli.
I want to frame this and title it:
“The reason I run…”
Good food, good run, good family. I had a great Sunday.
I HATE squash, but I’ve heard that it doesn’t taste too much like squash with sauce and what not. How do you make it?
You just steam it until it flakes away easily and flavor as desired. I’m going to do a post on it soon because I want more!
I joke around with my husband that the only reason I run is for bagels. For my marathon next year I’m going to make a “will race for bagels” shirt.
I haven’t had spaghetti squash in ages!! Need to get on that!!!
Love the puppy pictures!!!
I know! I haven’t had it in forever either and now I think I’m going to have it every day for a week – love!
Those dogs really do look like a perfect pair
Your dog photos are great. There is something so special and nearly indescribable about the love of a dog. Cats are fine (I do love mine), but in the end, I’m a dog person without a doubt.
I think I’m a dog person more than a cat person too 🙂
When I moved out, my dog stayed with my parents until my hubby and I bought our first house. Now that we are back with my parents, the dog is back to his original home and I think he likes it better this way. 🙂
What cute pups!!! 🙂 🙂
I looove spaghetti squash. I’ve found that just boiling it (the whole thing) is the easiest way. Do you roast it??
Rox looks pretty happy! I think it’s best to leave her where she has more space, and a bf.
fro yo for life!!
WOW I can’t believe you can just knock out a half marathon. NBD. You’re my hero 🙂 I loved the race recap and all the scenic shots in your previous posts. And the kissing pooch photo above 🙂 Have a great week, friend! Love you!
I kind of gave my dog up to my parents too. Love him to death but he is so much happier there with their dogs, and a yard he can run in and a lake he can swim in. I feel like people think I gave him up so I could have more freedom, but Id have him in a heartbeat if I were only thinking about myself.
At least I can see him whenever I want 🙂
Aww doggie love! Leave them together :)!
I’m going to have to try spaghetti squash! Is it really squash tasting or more like pasta?
Your dog is so precious 🙂 I would have a hard time leaving her with you mom, but animals hate being alone. At least you get to visit!
