November

Ok, as you can see, we had more chicks. We just could not keep track of all the chickens. Jim found another chicken with 7 little guys following. Here Brie is enjoying them in the house.

November was kind of a an exciting month for me. I completed the Living History Farm Run in Des Moises. It was a 7 mile obstacle course run and I completed it with 8 other friends. We were the Giggling Gallopers and we had a great time (even though it was FREEZING out there). I had completed this same run 6 years ago when Cassady was 3 months old, but it is crazy how 6 years of age can make such a different. 6 years ago I never trained for it, just talked into it but this time, I had to train before hand. I have tried to sign up for runs this past year so I MAKE me exercise. I am not a very self-motivated person when it comes to exercise so signing up makes me do it. I just wanted to be in semi-shape & healthy. :)


To end our November, we did a our yearly tradition of decorating gingerbread houses with my mom. They girls LOVE it and we have such a good time. Thank you grandma for the tradition. We look forward to it every year.
