Thanksgiving Day 2010!!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!
I have so many things to be grateful for. I have a great family, a great job, and a strong faith.
What more could I ask for?

This year I spent Thanksgiving in New Hampshire. First thing we did was go run in a 5K Turkey Trott in Derry, New Hampshire. It was VERY cold. But I am glad that all 9 of us got out and ran.
The starting line.


And we're off!!



I finished in a little over 30 minutes. Wasn't too bad. But I don't think I stressed how cold it was.... it was VERY VERY cold.
Here's Anni, Jake and Marty crossing the finish line.


And Camille, Abbi, and Jacob crossing the finish line.

After the race.... they had chilli, and yummy treats.
Hey, SOMEONE's gotta make this look good. Haha.

Dad taking pictures.

Trying to stay warm after the run.

Post-race picture time!!





And... the results are in. We can be proud of ALL of us... its a great thing to get involved in. Running can be alot of fun if you are doing it with others. Now to train for my marathon in March.
That afternoon we went to the local bowling alley. But this wasn't any old bowling alley. THIS is canddlestick bowling.


The pins are thin, so it is more difficult to make them bounce off the other pins to knock'um down. And, and forget about trying to put a spin on the ball, it doesn't help.



The "bowling balls" are about the same size at a skeeball ball.

















Our scorekeepers... not really. This bowling alley keeps score on its own... its not THAT old.

The results of the first game.


And the results of the second game.... Anni and me tied.

After bowling, he headed back to Dad's. Food was being made for a Thanksgiving dinner. While that was going on. We took the BB gun out back and played around. Jake really liked that. And I think we were all pretty good. But as I remember it correctly, Jacob was the sharpshooter for the day.














For dinner?? Yummy!! Ham!!

Did I mention how much I love being with my family!! You are all so very awesome!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
