Tanner's orchestra concert

Tanner has been playing the cello in the 6th grade orchestra this year.  He has learned a ton and really enjoys it.  He is doing really well for only playing the cello for 3 months!

Turkey Trot

So I got this crazy idea the Monday before Thanksgiving that I wanted to do a Turkey Trot Thanksgiving morning. I sent out an email about it to 50 or so friends of mine. There were about 50 people who showed up. There was a 1.5 mile race and a 3 mile race, either 1 loop around the neighborhood or 2. Most people only did the 1.5 mile race. It was fun and the weather was good, so I would say it was a success, especially since the medal for the kids was a ding dong and licorice rope. Who doesn't like candy?

On you mark, get set, go!
