Happy Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving started early as most of us (except Hannah, Hailey and Steve) got up to go run/walk the Gig Harbor Turkey Trot.  My family has never participated in any 5K races before, but I know that my sister and her family usually do so I found them a race to run.  Of course, I felt guilty about not doing it so I signed Cannon and I up, then London decided to go and at the last minute Emmy decided to also.  What a fun way to start your Thanksgiving!  I did feel a little slow, however, when the first 5K runners were returning before we had rounded the first turn.  To make myself feel better, I told myself it's because I was walking the pace of a 6 year old...  And it turns out that the kids and I took as long to walk a 5K as Nicole took to run a 10K!  I'll try harder next year.

While the turkey was cooking, the adults snuck out for a walk in the woods together.




We did had a lovely Thanksgiving together with Nicole and her family, hanging out, eating lots and watching football.  Poor Hailey, though, had a stomach bug and spent all day in bed. :(
