We did it!

Aaron and I ran the Zeitgeist Half Marathon today. The weather was perfect, the course not so perfect, the hills were endless at times. We finished in 2hrs 16 min. All our training paid off, at least for me, this was an easy race for Aaron and he is so wonderful for running it with me. My goal was 2 hrs and 10 min but the hills got the better of me a couple times and we walked for a few minutes. I'm excited I was able to finish strong, although my hips and knees were hurting, the long down hill areas seemed to cause them to hurt more than going up hill. I'm going to continue running, at least until the weather gets too cold. This picture was taken after the race!

Halloween Fun

Poor Seth missed out on Halloween this year. We think he had a 24 hour flu bug. He said he would rather be sick on his birthday than on Halloween. Michelle took the other kids to the trunk-or-treat at the church then went trick-or-treating with some friends and got way too much candy. It's amazing how many people give out full size candy bars around here! Seth didn't miss out on getting candy, he got Lizzy's bucket from the trunk-or-treat and then the other children gave him some of their candy from trick-or-treating. As you can see from the slide show there was plenty of candy, and there is such a thing as too much! Oh and FYI, Aubry was Padme' (made by Michelle and Aubry), Luke was a Vampire, Anna was a princess, of course, Lizzy was a Lady Bug, and Michelle was Princess Leah. Seth was going to be a Jedi.
