Happy Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving. I had not been feeling well the few days before, but I knew if I could just hold on, Willey would be off of work Thanksgiving morning and I would get a bit of a break. My friend Jessie had signed us up for the Pima Turkey Trot, which was a 5k and I was nervous, ha ha I don't really know why, but I was. So Thanksgiving morning came and my stomach was really not wanting me to run anywhere that morning, but I am pretty determined when it comes to working out, and finishing what I started, so I got dressed, ate some oatmeal and we were off. We had decided to walk at the start, but there were so many people that were running we kind of had to run. Any ways I don't really know what came over me but I was able to just keep running, (I am sorry to Jessie for leaving her), but I just felt like running. I ended up getting 34 mins, which I thought wasn't too bad for not being a runner. It felt so good to get that finish line and it was a great way to start Thanksgiving day!! My family had traveled to Utah for Thanksgiving, so it was just the five of us. We decided to grill up some steaks, and Josh wanted salmon, and it was just so relaxing and fun. We went around the room and said what we were thankful for: Ryan is thankful for food, especially hot dogs, Josh is thankful it was Thanksgiving and we could all share, Zack is also thankful for hot dogs, Willey was thankful for his boys and for me, for his good job and our home, and that heavenly father has blessed us so much. I am thankful for my loving husband and the hard work he does to provide for us, for my rowdy and fun boys, and to have a warm home and food to fill out tummies. We ended the night curled up watching a movie on our bed with the boys. Then willey let me take a nice long hot bath, and that has made me want to start 2 new traditions for me on Thanksgiving, to start with the Turkey Trot and end with a relaxing bath!!
