Can you believe it? I never thought I could do it, but here I am. 12 loooong miles. 2 hours and 20 minutes of running (for those mathmaticians out there calculating my pace…it’s not fast.) I am really sore right now, but so pumped that I did it! The next hurdle is the half marathon on October 29. As sore as I am right now, and as much as I hated life this morning when my alarm went off at 4:20 a.m., I am still really excited about running and training. Only 15 weeks til the Marathon.

I took the kids to get pictures made on Friday, and it went remarkably well! The ones of them together came out really cute. I decided to hold off on Connor’s individuals-he’ll either get them at school or I will take him when he’s four. Logan had a pretty significant meltdown when Connor got to eat a snack and he still had to take pics. Note to self…don’t let Connor eat his snack until Logan is done, too. Logan managed to rip open a baggie of cheerios and the poor photographer had to vacuum after we were done in the room.

I am playing with the idea of setting up a little photo studio in the garage. I’ve been reading online and all I need is some pvc pipe and some fabric. Doesn’t seem to difficult! Maybe I’ll get all that organized for some Christmas pics or something.

Anyway, here are the pics from yesterday. We are off to a birthday party (yum….brisket and cake!)

Noel, I don’t know if you read this still, but I have a post coming up soon that you will really appreciate…so check back!
