This was mile 2 but Blake didn't get the sign :-(
Only 5.2 to go...
I was pretty proud of myself! I made these tshirts and tiaras :-)
So Friday was my birthday....It was a pretty normal day. I went to the gym in the morning, then to work. My work people took me to lunch at Chili's then let me have the rest of the day off so I was able to get all the stuff to make the tshirts and tiaras. Josh took me to dinner at one of my favorite places, Killer Creek. We ate way to much, but it was delicious!! Saturday morning started early (6:00 am), getting up and packed to meet these girls and Blake at Turner Field for the Strong Legs 10k/5k run. It was pretty chilly but warmed up as we were running. It was so much fun, running/taking pictures/talking. It really made it go by fast. We got back in time to see the rest of the girls start the 5k. Well we didn't actually see them start, but we did see them finish! After hanging around and taking some pictures, we all went seperate ways to shower and some people met back up to go to a chili/bluegrass/art festival in Cabbagetown. Jami, Jenny and I went to Lauryn & Ben's to shower. Then we walked a couple blocks to the festival. Unfortunately they were out of chili by the time we got there, but it was beautiful weather, so we had fun walking around and looking at all the booths. After that we headed to Jenny's for our annual November bday party. Jenny & Brandon were fabulous hosts as always. And Jenny really outdid herself with the inflatable boxing ring. Who knew you could have so much fun with oversized boxing gloves. We had a great time!! Sunday, we went to Josh's grandma's for her 75th birthday party. It was great to see everyone. She is such a blessing!!
