This morning was amazing! Kindal and I ran the Color Me Rad race in our wedding dresses to raise money for Special Olympics (donations still welcome!!):
I’m happy to report that we raised $705 for the cause!! It was a cold (for South Carolina) morning…but we braved the temperatures (thank you Kindal/Dan for all of the pictures):
It was a great, fun 5K:
I held my dress the majority of the run:
In case you wanted to know what a color bomb looks like:
And the end results:
Goof balls:
Thank you again to everyone who donated! And a HUGE thank you to Kindal for letting me be a part of this effort.
Now, I’m getting ready for a little dinner party at our house (yikes!!). What are you up to?

So fun! I actually signed up for a Color Me Rad race here in July.
oh you are amazing to do this! I love it! Looks like it was a lot of fun! My husband and I were just talking last night how wedding dresses are such a funny thing- we keep moving mine around w/ us, as it sits in a box...but I feel like I can't just get rid of it. I hope I find a good "2nd use" for it!
how fun! somehow i missed the memo that you were running in your wedding dress for a color run! i thought it was a regular 5k. how fun though!!!
How fun! Much better than a dress sitting in a box!
So much fun! I did a Color Run last year and LOVED it! Only better in a wedding dress!
Looks like a lot of fun! :)
Fun! Glad the rain held off!
What an awesome cause, and I love that you wore your wedding dresses. It looks like you had a blast! :)
Woo hoo! I'm glad we finally met!
Love this so much! You ladies rocked it. I adore the picture of you two jumping together and that last one after crossing the finish line - so cute! Hope you had a great rest of your weekend!
This is so fun!!! And what a great cause!
This is so awesome! I love you to bits. Good job. And such a great cause! Yay.
This looks like so much fun! I think I'd be a bit sad to color my dress... but why not?? Not like I'm ever going to wear it again!
Sues
Haha. I think some women thought it was awesome and some women could NOT BELIEVE we were doing this ;)
how fun!!! i love the picture of you two at the end - so cute :) hahah I feel like this is a huge shock factor that you would let your wedding dress get so painted - but so awesome of you! glad you had such a fun weekend!
I'm loving all these pictures! You look so happy :) I think these color runs look like a lot of fun. Too bad I can't run to save my life...haha.
SO fun! I wish I could have run this race with you! :)
