officially registered for the 2011 5 mile turkey trot on Thanksgiving day in Green Bay. ran it last year with one of my awesome sisters and her awesome friend. so this year we shall do it again. my goal this year is to actually train a bit so i don’t feel like death throughout and after the race and hopefully beat my time of 1:06 from last year. to be honest though i question my sanity why i decide to do it because let’s get real, this is wisconsin and in november which equals COLD…. i can do this i can do this! and p.s. this picture pretty much sums it up and describes me to a T…haha and this run is no different but add in freezing cold shivering and you got it. wish me luck!

this AMAZING mother of mine is extraordinary in every way possible and i love her dearly. she’s my rock everyday and i look to her for advice, love, comfort, laughter and everything else that i need. she yells at me when i need to be put in my place and rolls her eyes when i’m being goofy and she tells me i’m beautiful every single day. she is my best friend, simply put…..HOWEVER, she knows my weaknesses too much and last night she made me look like this…
after shutting the tv off (mind you my mom fell asleep) and i went in the bathroom to do my routine getting ready for bed and i thought my mom went to bed…i walk out of the bathroom to find the house dark and as i start walking towards the stairs, my mom yells out scaring me to the bones. here she thought it would be hilarious to climb up on the couch and wait for me and scare me. she rolls over laughing and i try to catch my breath. then she has the guts to say to me…”geez you take a long time getting ready for bed. my knee hurts!” oh how i love this mother of mine.
