Rainy Day, Play Day, Race Day


It hailed really hard and Claire wanted to play in the mud. It made me happy to see her playing in her undies...kids grow up way too fast.


 We have taken advantage of the beautiful fall weather and visited several of the parks nearby our new home. We also found a group of homeschoolers that meet regularly at a park with praying mantises.
 Apple taste-test, our favorites were Snap Dragon and Empire

Tia and I ran another 5K together. This was a blacklight run and was soooo fun. I ran my best time yet, cutting another minute and twenty seconds off my previous fastest time. I'm down to 35:05. The first 5k we ran together on my birthday I nearly died trying to run the entire thing and it took me over 42 minutes. It was really awesome to compare those two races and see how much I have improved!

Awesome Sauce on cutting your time down even more. You inspire me. Not in a "I'm gonna get my fat butt off the couch and run" sort of way, but a "Hey, maybe I'll do that someday!" sort of way:)
