For the Love of Running 5k

Saturday was For the Love of Running 5k/Color Run.  We really had a blast. They played music before and after the race. They had door prizes, snacks, smoothies, etc. Plus getting color thrown on you every half miles really broke up the race.

My cousin, Alec, and I made it in just over 40 minutes....our best race time yet! We wanted to be under 40, but there were a lot of hills, so we are giving ourselves a break.


My aunt, Macie, ran hers in 46 minutes! She beat her goal of 48 and her goal of not being last. I think she really enjoyed this race!

Our next race is at the end of March, and I hope to be well under 40 minutes by the time that one comes around.

On another note, Valentines Day was great. Chris and I had Athena's, which is our favorite Greek restaurant (and the only Greek restaurant in town). Chris also got us chocolate covered strawberries that were soooooooo good. Our Anniversary is this Thursday, and we are actually going to go out on a date Friday! We haven't gone out together since Emersyn was born, so this should really be a good time. We are thinking of going to Painting with a twist, but we haven't fully decided. 

Emersyn had her 6 month check up yesterday (even though she is 7 months). She is turning out to be tall and slim! She is in the 90th percentile for height! Also, we have been feeding her fruit in her fresh food feeder and she absolutely LOVES it.

You just put some pieces of fruit in and Pow! she loves it!

I am 27 pounds down!
