Lots of cookies and lots of running

This past week I've been baking lots of cookies. I had the cookie exchange party and then made a bunch of christmas cookies. I can't help but eat some every day! :) LOVE LOVE LOVE cookies :) Here's a couple pictures of Jack helping with the standard cut outs I do every year.





This past Sunday I ran in the Toys for Tots 5K race. My friend and I ran together and we really pushed each other along. I ran the 2nd best time I've ever had for 3 miles. The first time was probably a good 8 years ago! My official time was 26:26. My friend was only 30 seconds behind and we finished 5th and 6th for our age group! (out of 25). I'm pretty happy with myself considering I only run 2-3 times a week. We're planning on running in some upcoming races. Here's a picture of us running. Someone was taking pictures of every runner which was pretty cool.



This week I'm trying to stay busy since Mike won't be home much at all, a busy week at work for him. Can't believe next week is Christmas! I have my christmas cards almost done and all my packages mailed. Just have to wrap the boys presents, which we'll do next week.
