Jingle Bell Jog

December around Nashville is a time for several fun runs. In years past, Carlos and I have done the Rudolph Run downtown at night, but this year we did a new run. Through Alex's preschool, a team of runners - Step Forward Day School's Stepping Santas - was formed to run in the Jingle Bell Jog in downtown Franklin. It turned out to be not too cold so the whole family could attend. For the run, Carlos, Marisa and myself ran. My mom, Alex, and Wes came to support. Wes rode around in his stroller and looked cute! Before the race, me and the kiddos took a quick photo.

And here we all are after the race! Carlos was several minutes ahead of me and Marisa. She is doing so well with her running. We all also ran a Turkey trot on Thanksgiving morning. Marisa runs the whole time and even took off about a tenth of a mile from the finish. I mean she really took off and suprised me. I think she might have a bit more speed to her than me. I pride myself on being slow and steady =)

Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!!
