Featured Post- Tri-ing to be Athletic

Greetings *Cutelings!

*Ok, I'm guessing that's not what DAT's so Cute followers are called, but "Claymates" was already taken.  So, please allow me to introduce myself.  I joined the blogoverse (totally a word, right?), in December.  As we all need to take on a superhero identity online, I chose the nom de plume of TriGirl and write over at Tri-ing to be Athletic.

I decided to stick with the French theme there.  Did you guys see that?

I started this site because I've never been what you might call athletic coordinated. I fell on my head when I was 2 (true story, but I digress).  I've been chronicling my often less-than-brilliant attempts to coordinate my little self into doing triathlons.  Why, you ask?  Because I am a sucker for peer pressure and a bunch of people at work were doing it.

My training includes running,

and biking,

and swimming.

(I'm what's known as a back-of-the-packer).

Sometimes I branch out and take a spin class,

go skiing,

or try Pilates.

I also write about my races in all their glory.  Some good,

some, well, not so much.

I have such a great time drawing, blogging and meeting other crazy like-minded people!  And, no matter what, just when I think I don't have anything more to blog about, I go work out and the story writes itself.  Like magic...disturbing, pathetic, graceless magic.

A big THANKS  to Bobbi/BJ for the opportunity to hijack "DAT's so Cute" for a day!

Featured Post- Truly Lovely

Hello lovelies!!! 

I'm Kassi and I blog over at Truly Lovely!!

On my wedding day in July!

I am THRILLED to be here while Miss BJ is taking a break and enjoying her new little man!!!

Truly Lovely is a blog about all things my sister and I consider to be well.... LOVELY.

A lot of those lovely things include crafts... 

Like these Poker Card Tile Coasters!

Or fun recipes like these Reese's Pieces Cupcakes. 

My mister and I were supposed to get married June 18th, but because of the Wallow Fire in Arizona we had to postpone it until July 9th. 

You can read about that here, if you'd like. 

Here's a Truly Lovely button in case you're looking to spice up your sidebar in the meantime... ;)

My sister Kayli shares her lovelies on the blog from time to time as well. 

She just started college in August and as older sisters will do, I shared my advice on things to know before heading off to college. :)

We love featuring other lovelies on our blog!! 

It's a great way to get ideas and meet new bloggie friends. 

Hope you'll stop by our Fancy This Fridays link up over the weekend where you can showcase your projects from the week!
