Sorry to those of you who still follow this. Unfortunately, I get sidetracked by talking to the cyberworld via Facebook instead of Blogspot. However, I do have some cute pictures to share, an update on my 5K experience and some funny things about Brenna that make me laugh.
We visited a pumpkin patch/farm earlier in the month and had a great time enjoying the beautiful fall weather. 
Unfortunately, this weekend summer came back for a visit - can't wait to have fall again. Here is B posing with some huge pumpkins! She decorated a small pumpkin with foam stickers, got her face painted, took a hay ride and visited with some farm animals. A fun way to kick off the season!

The following weekend, I ran my very first 5K (the Phoenix Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure). When I say ran I really mean ran - yes, me...running!! I admit that I took a couple of short breaks during the run and fast-walked, but picked back up the running and really, truly ran at least 85% of the time.
I don't claim to be fast - it wasn't a race for me, just something I wanted to do. Although I wouldn't say it is my favorite thing in the world, I have come to truly appreciate running and actually look forward to it now. I don't run a whole 5K every day or anything, but running makes me feel good so I think I'll keep doing it! My friend Jennifer and her hubby Jack ran this one with me and we are planning to do another one in just a few weeks (and hopefully some more throughout the winter). We may even be gearing up to eventually do 10Ks, 1/2 marathons or marathons. Someday.....but for now 5Ks are all I see :)

"Mom, can we do the stuff where you make funny faces or tickle me and make me laugh?"
"My bones are all cracked" (this after having to be carried in an awkward position out of a store for throwing a fit)
"Um..I really need to go shopping so I can have cute clothes for Disneyland. Cuz I wanna wear LIGHT pink pants with my horsey shirt, not regular pink, LIGHT pink. So I can look cute for Disneyland"
Next post is sure to be about Disneyland! My fabuloso parents are taking us soon!! We are SUPER DUPER excited!

congrats on the Run! You go girl! She is going to be a tricky one come teenage years if she is already so picky about what she wears to impress others! I love it!
She is so cute! Good job on your run. I can't wait to hear about Disneyland.
