Fun November!

November was a very eventful month for us!  It started out with me winning third place in the Pecan Festival 10 K and completing my first marathon!!!!  The rest has been just as great! 
 Heyward on the home stretch in his first race, the Turkey Trot 5K! 

 Bop running with the turkeys!

 Heyward loves roasted marshmellows!

 Enjoying fellowship around the campfire with my snuggle bug.

 Turkey Day parties at school.  Here is Rain Cloud (a.k.a. Heyward)
He picked this name for himself.

 Adorable turkey pine cones Heyward and Laurie Beth made with Becee and Bop.  They made great table decorations for Thanksgiving dinner.

 Watching the kids play outside after dinner.  It's so wonderful to have such a loving family who all get along and enjoy being together!

 Cousin Weldon and D.  We missed so many of our other cousins this year and can't wait to see them at Christmas!

On our way to church, admiring the Fall leaves.

Blogging catch up!

Ugggg!  I haven't had time for much lately and keeping up with a blog has definitly fallen wayside.  I have recently started working in the afternoons doing one on one personal training at the Haven.  I love the job!  I am also training for my first marathon next weekend in the Outer Banks.  I have a 2nd marathon in Disney World on January 9th.  Running has really become important to me and allows me to have time for myself and relieve stress.  The new job, training and maintaing the kids activities is all very time consuming and forces D and I to be even more regimented in our daily lives than usual.  I have had quite a time adjusting and am finally getting comfortable in our new life.  Here are some pictures of our busy life from the start of school until Halloween! 
Heyward's first day of 4K!
