This was Thanksgiving week and boy do I have a lot to be thankful for! The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, we went to our running workout as normal with our running group, The Speedsters. After the sweaty workout we all walked over to a local restaurant, Ford's Garage, and had our annual holiday party. It was nice and we had over 60 people in attendance! Good thing the restaurant was quite slow that night. We had a great time and got to see many faces that we have missed! 

Next came Thanksgiving morning. It was a fluke weather morning where the weather decided to drop drastically! No one was really prepared for it but it made for a festive day. This picture is one for the memory books! It is the start of the race, 2,500 people facing the start line and my big ole' belly parading right across the front of everyone! It was even on the front page of a section of the newspaper...blown up for all to see. Hysterical...I think...

Other than that, the week was a nice one. We had a few days off for the Thanksgiving holiday and decided to start getting odds and ends for Baby V's nursery. This mobile had my heart instantly and the elephant was something I have wanted for quite a while! So happy we got some time to spend thinking about the future and imagining what will be!
