Turkey Day, Half Marathon and Olympia

So turkey day was here and is now over and gone....sniff sniff! No matter how much we harrassed poor little Cletus he wouldn't come out! He just didn't feel like Thanksgiving was his time to have a birthday. So much for planning to NOT have a baby in December....I guess we can blame that one on the green beer and good times on St. Paddies Day! :)

Thanksgiving was fun and relaxing and it really did go by really fast. The boys cooked us a wonderful feast and I have to say that it was probably one of the best turkeys I have ever tasted. Now I know everyone was thinking I was talking about seafood for turkey day...but I had a traditional feast. The seafood was just a plus for being over on the West (aka Wet) side of the state of Washington. Sad to say that when Jake and I went out for crab....the crazy critters were either really popular or on strike because we couldn't find any. At least the dungeness we were looking for.

We took a little trip back to Olympia and I was so excited to be there. It was just as I had left it...and it made me a little home sick. I love that little city and I have alot of wonderful memories from when I lived there. I think P-nutt really loved it too. We took her to the farmers market and walked downtown and on the pier. It was great to get a sniff of the Puget Sound air....even if it was just for a short while.

We were lucky enough to get a little bit of blue sky and sun that day too.

The half marathon ended up being a nice 10 miler for me. I had to cut it 3 miles short because of time constraint (mainly a 6 hour drive back home) and after 3.5 hours I was ready to eat and rest. I felt really good to have accomplished at least this much...even if it was walking. No screaming crowds and big time clock for me this time around....but I am proud of myself and thats all that matters.

On Friday we will be 26 weeks pregnant....ahhhh the third trimester. Looking forward to all of that...(gulp) :)
