so, SO Thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I started my Thanksgiving Day out by running the Turkey Trot 10K, which was hosted at the Broomfield Commons this year instead of Anthem, since its gotten so popular!

I wasn't prepared for the course change, as I didn't realize the change in location until the night before, but it ended up being much easier then the Anthem course - no BIG hill for 2 miles - yeah!

This 10K went much smoother then my last one in June, and I finished the 6.4 miles in 53 minutes!

Probably my proudest moment of the whole event was successfully unpinning my bib, removing my jacket and tying it around my waist, re-binning my bid, re-routing my ear phones through the re-pinned bib and NOT falling flat on my face!  I got VERY hot around mile 2 and HAD to shed some clothes!  Thank GOD they gave us those pumpkin colored running shirts before the race started!

I know, I know I look SO sexy when I run!  I have come to learn that I look like a Hot Mess when I do any type of athletic activity - literally a HOT MESS!

But, Yeah ME! Another 10K under my belt...

 After relaxing a bit after my race, we headed over to my mom's for our Annual Thanksgiving Day Feast!  It was the same ol' thing - lots of drinks, GREAT food, and lots of fun and laughs with the family I love so much!

 Eli LOVES Dr.Pepper and whenever he finds one laying around he will take it for himself and sneak off to drink the rest - Uncle Steve found him happily chugging a Dr.Pepper on the fireplace!

Thanksgiving was VERY low key this year - which is nothing to complain about - actually something to be VERY thankful for!  It was nice to relax before the chaos of December comes our way!

I am so, SO thankful for my awesome, sexy husband who makes life so much fun, my two adorable kids who melt my heart every day with their sweet spirits, and my family who provides all the support and love I need to make it through this crazy life!

Happy Thanksgiving!
