Our running group took some of us newbies on our first trail run. Perfect day. Hard work! Loved it all!
We found one tree along the trail that was decorated and contained little baskets with packets of ‘Gu’, (fuel for runners). Another tree was decorated with edible food for birds.

A mellow morning at home, then a wonderful dinner at our friend’s, Steve and Mary Britton. Steve is from England, and made a traditional British dinner!

Bayside church puts on an incredible Christmas Eve service that begins earlier in the month. They have between 1-3 service a day, up through Christmas Eve. This year, their special guest artist was William Close, the man who invented the “Earth Harp” and made the finals of ‘America’s Got Talent’. It was a powerful, evening full of worship and a beautiful message of God’s love and grace.

I signed up for a challenge to run at least one mile a day every day from Thanksgiving to New Years. Then, I signed up for another challenge to run at least 1K during the 12 days of Christmas, but upped the ante to run 5K every day during that time.
Happy to say, I met all those challenges! Here is the medal for one of the challenges…

Breakfast of choice: Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles, mango, and Concord grape juice.
Took the boys and a few friends to the opening weekend of “Star Wars” at Studio Movie Grill. Cupcakes back at home. Tons of fun!

The Monterey Bay Aquarium sets aside about five days a year for homeschoolers. The tickets are free and by reservation. I was unable to get tickets, but a friend gave me hers. Another friend of mine had tickets the same day so we made it a road trip together!
…and we’re off, early morning! Bagels and coffee made for perfect road trip food…
Monterey’s aquarium is amazing! I had a hard time picking which photos to post. This is one of those place where you just have to experience it and photos won’t do it justice.
My awesome friend, Julie, watched the boys for almost an hour while I ran along the coast. Perfect day, perfect view for a run!

‘A’ broke his foot and could not run, but ‘R’ joined in and we had a blast! Ran the 5K together and enjoyed hot cocoa after!

It is always a joy to be able to set aside an evening at Christmas time to worship together with friends and other women. I hosted a table again this year and was able to use my holiday table setting. Musician Laura Story graced us with her beautiful music and voice. Precious friends around the table…lovely.
