Fall Fun...part 2

Well, here are the second half of some Fall pictures, and activities. You'll notice I can rarely get a picture of the rascals both looking at the camera at the same time. Nor do we ever really have a family picture. Anyone want to volunteer to take some for us :) Nolan is always a stinker and either pushing Liv away, trying to pull on her, or poke her with something while I'm sitting them together. I think in one of the pictures he really does have a stick in hand. So we've wrapped up October and most of the festivities that come along...Harvest Party at school, pumpkin patch, and of course pumpkin carving, and Halloween. Hope you've all been having a Happy Fall!
*I forgot to mention, Olivia was Belle(Beauty & the Beast,)and I had to use brown hairspray to change her haircolor. NJP was a cowboy.

Race Day...it was a frigid morning!

So I really haven't consistently worked out in months for lots of reasons. I've missed it, it's such a release for me, and for years it's been a big priority in my life. A good friend of mine asked me to run a race with her and I told there was no way I could, I would only have a few weeks to train, and I wasn't feeling very motivated. A week or so later I decided I really needed to do something for "me." I thought about the run again, and thought that was a perfect thing for me to accomplish. I had about a week and a half to train for the 5 mile run. I went on a few runs with the girls and then a couple on my own. Three and a half miles was about the longest I ran on my own, but figured I could run the extra 2 on race day. Well, I did it! As I've said before, I'm not a runner, it's never come easy to me. I do however like the challenge. What's next? I'm considering training for a half marathon. I've been dabbling with that thought for the last year and feel ready to take this challenge on. I'm super excited to see how this all pans out. Thank you ladies for twisting my arm, and helping me train for the race. I had a lot of fun! Although I could have done without~running over ice patches, freezing cold air, and a drippy nose from the cold. Otherwise, I thought it was great!
