Leyton's First Race

My annual (No) turkey trot but this year, I had a running partner (at least for some of the race).  

Leyton ran with me! 

It was quite a cold morning for a run! 

 Redding was our #1 cheerleader and handled the 28 degree weather like a pro.

Leyton ran the 1-mile race.  

Here he is coming up to the finish line!

He saved a little juice to sprint it out!

After Leyton's 1-mile race, I ran an 8k.

It was cold but everyone survived!

Now time to go and eat some pumpkin pie!

Giving Thanks

We had a different Thanksgiving this year.  Thanksgiving traditionally consisted of traveling, by many parties.  This year, we had to drive only 20 minutes to Mimi and Geeps house!  Fabulous.  While Granny Shipp, Granddaddy Shipp, Dana, Steve, and Taylor did not get to attend (we missed you guys), Laura and James made their way up.  Also in attendance were our neighbors Yogi, Gill, Lilly, and Irene (Yogi's Mom who was visiting from Holland).  We really enjoyed having them and giving them a real, American Thanksgiving!  Fun Times were had by all!

While I didn't take as many pictures as I would have liked (or as many as I thought),

I think you will see that we had a great time!

Leyton's favorite game..."Can't catch me"

Lilly decided to play a game of catch too!
