He is also very active, mostly weight training and he has run 2 half marathons as well. He is very fast without training too hard. 1:28 Half Marathon!!! I am working on being able to keep up with him. Someday when are kids are older we look forward to training together.

AP: 8:50

Blessing: "The Nativity Story" movie! SO GOOD!!! We watched it last night and I cried a lot. Ladies can you imagine having a baby in a stable with only your husband there to deliver your baby!? WOW! What a miracle! We each are truly blessed because of the birth of the Christ child. Merry Christmas!!!!!

TM run at 5AM. I don't know the details I just did it as fast as I could so I wouldn't be late for breakfast.

Went to breakfast with new running friends to "Burger Basket". Scary name I know! They all didn't want to run so I woke up early and ran 6 miles before we met at 6AM. So glad I did. I shared a breakfast burrito with one of the other ladies but I still don't care to know how many calories I ate. Super YUMMY!

Blessing: Good Friends.... I have been so very blessed with new friends this last year only to add to my life long friends I already have. Miss you my great Utah friends!!! Love you my new CA friends!
