Whoa! I had no idea I hadn't posted since Halloween! I guess life's been pretty busy lately and the whole blog fell by the wayside. Hmm, what's been going on, you ask?
Let's see, I hosted Thanksgiving dinner for my family. Yes folks, I cooked the turkey and everything. (By the way, I did NOT enjoy pulling the "innards" out of the bird. I can completely understand vegetarians now.) It all went well and everyone seemed to enjoy the food.
Christmas in Cedar Falls was very fun. My nieces and nephew give me so much joy, I can't even describe it. I've included some pics. I am so blessed to have them in my life and be able to take any opportunity to be with them.
I also participated in the ever popular "day after Christmas" shopping. My stepmom and I were at Target a little after 7am. It wasn't too crazy and I found a few nice things. The highlight (it doesn't take much) was finding really nice car mats for $19 (all 4!) at Sears.
I met my friend Jen (back in town from MN) for a nice 9 mile run on Sunday. Yes, we ran outside in the winter snow. It was actually pretty nice out and we had a good time.
I need to pick a Spring marathon so I can commit to training. Right now I'm just sort of going with the flow and doing whatever feels good. If I commit to a marathon, I'll need to get my mileage up!
The goal for this marathon is to break through the 4 hour mark. I'm only 5 minutes away and I can taste it!
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
