Do These Shoes Scream Happy Birthday, or What?

IMG_8459

I didn’t order these shoes for my birthday, but they arrived the day before, and they were the perfect way to celebrate! (They are Saucony Kinvara 3’s. My previous pair were Kinvara 2’s, so I knew I would like them before I ordered them.)

I had a great day, starting with breakfast with a good friend. A good friend, I might add, who was willing to split a breakfast with me! Score–one way to cut the calories a bit!

Went to the gym for a really good workout. I am only doing upper body exercises on the weights, and throwing in a few ‘core’ exercises as well. And I am doing HIIT on the bike now for a better aerobic workout.

Then it was off to the movies, where I saw “Life of Pi.” I will not say much about it, except that it kept me on the edge of my seat, and I have no idea how they got some of those shots with the animals. They looked real, not computer animated, but I don’t know how they did it. Anyway, if you can’t tell, that is two big thumbs up for that movie.

So it was a great day. I ended the day with one pre-planned piece of birthday cake, most worthy.

And today I went right back to my “diet plan.” I am so pleased with that.

  1. Happy Birthday and good job sticking to the one pc of pre-planned cake – in Oct for my b’day, since there is only hubby and me…we bought a very large one serving of my favorite cake to divide between us…it actually sat in the fridge for a few days even after ‘the day’ – I just wanted to savor the idea it was ‘there’…haha.
    And there is no doubt about it … I LOVE THOSE SHOES!!!!!!!

  2. I saw you wearing those shoes all the way over here in Tennessee! Those don’t scream Happy Birthday, they just scream HAPPY!!! Love em. Wish I could treat you to a quite birthday lunch somewhere in you neck of the woods. Maybe someday…….

  3. love the shoes.

    I think I read that there were only two shots with a live animal. The rest was computer. I know, even from the commercials, it looks very, very real.

    Happy Birthday!

  4. I love those shoes!!! So colorful, they must feel like a party on your feet!!!

    Glad you had a wonderful birthday and hurray for friends being willing to split meals with you!

  5. So glad you enjoyed your birthday – you deserve it! Thanks for the “pi” review. We are thinking about going to see that one.

  6. Happy birthday! LoveLOVELove the new kicks! I wanted to try those on when I updated my shoes a few months back, but the running store woman said they weren’t for my feet. So I had to get plain old ordinary white. All this to say, I’m a teensy bit jealous of your happy shoes!
