Relax. Go Nuts.

IMG_5619IMG_5520 IMG_5581IMG_5564

Today a few friends and I ran…well walked….the 5K for Breast Cancer… It was a great experience and something I would definitely do again next year…. there were a lot of people cheering on the sidelines, handing out water…candies etc…and they also sold some stuff to raise money. I got two Revlon nail polishes …my new favourite colour is Plum Attraction…really beautiful and even better that the money goes to charity! Its a win win …

Spent some time with the family…then J and I grabbed some coffee, relaxed and spent about an hour playing with this squirrel in the first picture…haha…I swear, he seemed like the friendliest little squirrel I have ever met! He was actually playing with us..coming closer, running away…coming closer …such a cutie….J wanted to take him home…I think that's against the law…haha…who knows….

This is one of the tops and sequin jackets I picked up at Value Village….I wouldn't normally pay $10 for a used blouse at a thrift shop but I loved the print so I guess there is a first for everything…the jacket was $7 and after removing the massive foot ball player shoulder pads…I can’t complain….trust me, it was nothing close to Balmain! Hope you all had a great weekend! xo

Most amazing photo of squirrel. You should sell that shot :)

PS congrats on the 5 K...they are fun, aren't they? Well I've only done 10 K and that was somewhat fun so I imagine a lesser distance is better haha.
