The Day Before Thanksgiving....

This is the first time we have been home for Thanksgiving in 3 years. So, I decided to make something for the neighbors this year. 

(Thanks to Beth for this idea!) 

here is the recipe for this awesome snack mix!

Then, I decided to take some fall pictures...

Leaves, leaves, and more leaves....

Happy Thanksgiving Y'all!!!

I'm Running in the Rain....

(*Warning: Picture Heavy Post!)

Although, I am sure some of us sang! :)

On Monday, our cross country team headed South to run at a Country Club in the middle of nowhere. Literally. 

Then, we went for a warm up/lets-see-what-it-looks-like walk.

After that, the jr. high girls were up first!

And we're off! 

The jr. high boys....

I love this face...haha

The sr. high girls...

After the race, we all gathered in the gym to eat and receive awards...

Jason with the bronze medal...

Ruthie, our gold medalist.

The jr. high boys team - 1st in the state!

The sr. high girls team - 2nd in the state!

The whole team!

Although, I ended up getting sick the next day, I still had fun!  :(
