Pre Christmas Fun 2012

December 23, 2012 | family, holidays, running, Running Skirts

 

Happy Christmas Eve! What is everyone doing today? Today we will do lots of baking, go to church, watch a Christmas movie, and read the Christmas story and ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. I love it.

Yesterday, Bobby and I got up and ran 3.25 miles. We ran 7 on Saturday so we were doing a back to back run to prepare for Goofy. We both feel like we are starting to burn out and get really tight, and don’t want to get injured, so we decided to cut our run short and do lots of stretching instead.  I, of course, was festively dressed.

My dad BBQ’ed and we watched the Saints game my the tree and the fire.

Then my sister came into town, and we all drove about an hour away to my grandmother’s house to visit her and my uncle and have dinner with them. We came home quite tired and just watched some football until bed time. It was nice to spend some quality time with the fam. I hope you all do some unplugging today and spend time with your loved ones.

I leave you with this fun little photo. I apparently did NOT like Santa when I was a baby. He doesn’t seem too thrilled to see me either.

Heh. Merry Christmas eve!

QOTD: Did you love Santa as a baby or were you petrified like me?

    I’m not sure how I responded to Santa as a tiny baby, but I liked him as a little girl! Today’s my birthday, so we will do a little celebrating and go out to lunch and tonight go to my church’s Christmas Eve Service!

    Have a very Merry Christmas!

    There are no pictures of me with Santa before about 12 years old. I was completely terrified. Everyone in the family laughs about how harshly I refused to sit on Santas lap

    I loved Santa when I was younger! Whenever my mom and I were at the mall I’d want to see him every time

Some days, the scoreboard doesn’t look the way we Some days, the scoreboard doesn’t look the way we want it to, but that doesn’t change how proud we are. ❤️

Yesterday we didn’t win the championship, but that didn’t stop us from remembering what really matters, that our daughter is an amazing human who deserves to be celebrated even on the tough days. 🍧

Parents, it’s SO easy to get wrapped up in the game. Let’s always remember that our kids’ worth isn’t measured by a trophy or a score. Celebrate them. Encourage them. Love them unconditionally. ✨

They are enough. Always. 💛
