Tinkerbell 1/2 Marathon Weekend

It is true!!!  I completed the Tinkerbell 1/2 marathon.  I ran this race a year ago and was getting ready to run the Santa Barbara 1/2 marathon.  But during the Tough Mudder in Vegas, I managed to become one big bruise and hurt my hip.  I tore my right labrum and was told that I may never run again.  I did not like that answer so I went and got a second opinion.  After some physical therapy , and patience I did it!!!  I was very excited.  A little tired but excited.  It also proved to be my best time yet!!! 
I am so lucky to have such a great cheering section behind me to get me through those last couple of miles.  Knowing that I get to great these wonderful faces at the finish line is the best!!!

Nathan asked me if I won the race.  I am trying to teach them that if they want something bad enough they can have it, if they do not give up and are willing to work hard.  So my response to him,  "Did I finish the race?"  He said ,"yes, you did."  "Then Yes, son, I won the race!!!"

It was a fun weekend!!!!

Too Long!!!

It has been way too long since I have been to this blog.  It was a fun way for me to journal and look back at our fun adventures.  However, life then became hectic and a bit overwhelming.  Some of it even just seemed like a big blur.  As we start this new year, I am going to try and get back into the groove. 

Today I  start simple!!!  We love minions at my house.  Mrs. Claus made some of the best hats around!!!  Here's hoping that everyone had a great Christmas season and may the New Year bring much fun and happiness!!!
