Recently I mentioned that a new Charlie Brown movie will be released next year. Now I may have a conflict next November 6th...Charlie Brown and a new Bond movie! What's a girl to do?!?

santa hustle update

The Christmas season has officially arrived!! I have been excited about Christmas since August, when I first signed up for the Santa Hustle Half Marathon. Now the race is in 20 days!

When Alex hung up his medal after the Port Angeles half, he was done running half marathons. I was sad to think that I'd have to go it alone but, my wonderful friend Alaina wanted to try her hand foot at running a half marathon, so now I have a new running buddy.  It's been fun to get to run and talk (as much as one can talk and run) with her. Alaina has been a great running partner, encourage-r and motivator. Just a few more weeks of training and then it will be time for the most festive, jolly race yet.

Wish us luck!

Don't these runners look so happy, jolly and festive?!

the great debate

It's been a longtime struggle for those who get cold hands during the winter months: mittens vs. gloves. Personally, I prefer gloves for their accessibility to my fingers, but mittens are much cuter. I found this article nestled between an article about Obamacare and the Ferguson updates. It provides a nice solution for those who struggle. Please enjoy all of this useless information...you're welcome.

If you'd like to get me the pictured gloves, I wouldn't turn them down :)

Have a very happy, safe and thankful Thanksgiving. 

1 Chronicles 16:34 (ESV)
Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His steadfast loves endures forever!
