Almost December.

The day after Thanksgiving Lars and I went for a ride. Coming back along the river couldn't have been more beautiful. The same day Mission Ridge opened. We live in an outdoor playground...I love it!

Giving Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends and family. We are thankful for all of you!

Turkey on the Run

We started Thanksgiving off with Turkey on the Run. Lars and I helped put it on, so the whole family got to go down to Rotary Park at 6:30.

Luke ran his first 5k (3.1 miles) in about 24 minutes, with 2 of his buddies!


Lars sprinting to the finish with Ryan and Sarah. Lars was originally going to run the 12k, but then decided to run with Luke. Well then Luke chose friends, too late for Lars to change, so he ran the 5k in 21:26!

Logan ran the kids 2k! She did awesome!

Had to throw the Konrads in here. They brought their son Ben, he was such a good boy, pretty sure he thought this was a great way to start Thanksgiving! He even won wine for his parents!

Two things that make me smile

Luke all dressed up for game day!

Logan and her sense of style. There is no shame in her game.

And then for even more fun..throwing leaves!

November 7th, still riding.

This is such a questionable time of year for outdoor workouts, particularly the month of November. The road bike season is coming to an end, our daylight hours are limited, and the temperature is questionable. We have about a month until the ski season gets going.
Today we set out around noon, it was sunny and 47 degrees, 10 miles into the ride the wind was picking up and bringing with it rain, but it honestly didn't matter, it just feels good to be outside.

I have come to the conclusion I am NOT a gym person. I will run in all conditions other than ice outside. To do so I have invested in essential outdoor workout wear that limits the pain.
However we do resort to spin classes in the winter, and have really found a place we love to do strength training, The Inner Circle Gym.

Halloween Fun

Luke bailed on us and went to a friends, but before he left he got dressed in his "costume" to surprise Lars. He was Lars circa 1995-96!

Logan was a witch! My mom made her beautiful skirt and Logan picked the shirt and the hat was from Kay in the gift shop, she loved it!

Cal got to join us, he LOVED it!

Especially when Logan would walk with him!
