biking along the Katy Trail

Three Saturdays ago we had more fun adventures. I trained clients in the morning, then worked out, and then met Brad at Panera for breakfast. We decided we should take our bikes out, considering we still hadn't yet! What better time than a beautiful Saturday in October to go for a ride along the MO River?

We drove up to Rocheport, a quaint historic town along the river, unloaded the bikes from Brad's truck and hit the trail. We biked for a little over an hour, but between the MANY stops for snapping pictures, we probably didn't go too far! We ended with a snack at the little "trail-side" cafe. It was a beautiful day!

taking time out...

Everybody nowadays seems to be crazy busy. Brad and I are, of course, no different. We've been running circles around eachother so much that we have a new goal: every Saturday morning go to Panera and just sit and talk for awhile. I know, it's tough, but somebody has to do it! :)

Three Saturdays ago I had two clients to train in the morning, and the fog was heavy on my way to the gym. I'd been wanting to take pictures of the fall foliage with the fog set in, so I called Brad and shared how upset I was that it was a beautiful morning and I had to spend the next two hours with clients! Sure enough, two hours later he met me at the gym with my camera, and we took off down the trail we run on. By that time, most of the fog had cleared, but there was still a little on the water. After our little hike we headed over to Panera for our Saturday morning ritual... it was a wonderful morning!

our first Mizzou football game

We got some tickets from friends and made it out to the second home football game of the season (MU vs Furman). I was pretty excited because it was my first MU game, and actually, my first big football game ever (no, I don't consider Missouri State football to be "big"!). It was fun to be walking around campus and see all the tailgating along the streets and what not. It wasn't the most riveting game... we creamed them 52-12 (this was back when we were still winning, you see), but it was fun to be in on all the excitement- the MIZ - ZOU cheer and the cannons going off and all that stuff that really adds to the experience. All in all, it was a great first experience. Go Tigers!
