This morning, I had an early wake up call in order to get in 7 miles..... and 7 Looonnnnggg miles they were!!! Ok, it wasn't that bad!!!! But, when you run on the treadmill on a day you would normally run outside, it just isn't the same!!! Usually, I would drive into town to run with other runners, however, couldn't make it today. See, my son and I had breakfast with Santa at 8am sharp!!!! To run in town, I drive 40 minutes EACH way...... there just wouldn't have been enough time to run in town and get back to town for breakfast with Santa!!!! Oooooohhh, the sacrifices we do for our children?!?! OK, OK, I admit, perhaps I too was excited, and wanted to make it to Breakfast with Santa!!!!! :D
Mrs. Claus was there too!!!!!!!! And what a BIG surprise for me!!!!! I recognized Mrs. Claus as a lady who works with me!!!! Who knew?!?! She has never told me that she is secretly Mrs. Claus...........
There were fun Christmas Crafts to do... my son decorated made a little Christmas tree to place on our refrigerator....
My son had a tattoo placed.... which he couldn't wait to show daddy over lunch!
Then, it was home to get daddy and then head to Raisin' Cane in order to pick out a Christmas tree!!!
Caught my son peeking through a couple of trees!! Love this photo! I have one just like it from last year that I posted below it! FUN! But reminds me how fast he is growing up!
Was trying to get a picture of Daddy, he is a bit camera shy! He is always telling me, this better not end up on Facebook!!! So, shhhhhhhh, don't tell him he made it on this blog!! HA! HA! HA! :D
We still haven't decorated the tree as of yet..... but we have it standing in the living room!!! Definitely beginning to look and feel like Christmas!! Now, if I can just tackle getting a Christmas card made!!! :D
Well, I do hope all of you had a FUN day!! Have to run...... tomorrow, I have 15 miles on schedule..... UNTIL LATER.....

REAL TREE or FAKE TREE?!?! Which do you prefer? (I always had a fake tree growing up, but ever since moving out of my parents house, I always love the hunt to pick out a real tree each year!)
Treadmill running?!? Dreadful or do you just see it has a GREAT convenient way to get run in when not able to make a run outdoors? (I pick outdoors anytime over the treadmill, but love that my treadmill helps me not to miss scheduled miles)
Do something fun today? Do Tell!!!!.....
