Turkey Day 5k

HAPPY THANKSGIVING everybody! Hope your having fun on turkey day! The day started out okay and then got great for me. It was only okay because my dad woke me up at 7:30 a.m! I was so not ready to wake up yet. My whole family did a Turkey Day 5k. 5k is 3.1 miles. My dad and I WERE going to run together. I started running at the beginning and we lost each other, I say he left me but he says I left him because I was always in front of him and i told him to catch up. But anyway my goal for today was to break 30 min and get a pr (personal record). I did! My time was 28:59. I'm also going to do the Boulder Bolder.

Here are some of the actual party pictures. We hired Becca, she also came to my birthday party, to come serve.

Hey My mom's birthday party was on Sat. There were about 50 people there and it took so long to set up for. Here are the pictures from setting up.

Veteran's Day- Travis

Hey guys, My cousin Travis was in the Iraq war ( the United States Marine Corp) and got back last February, unharmed! For a school project I decided to write a thank-you note to him for serving our country (Travis is on the left):

Dear Travis,
Thank you for serving our country. It takes a great amount of courage to do what you did. You sacrificed a lot for us; time away from friends and family, home cooked meals, and risked your life. Sometimes I bet it was really scary. I hope to see you soon. THANKS
Love,
Melissa

Halloween

Hey, on Halloween I invited my soccer team over to have dinner and go trick-or-treating. Only part of them came, but it was still fun. The hand is made out of jello (my friends mom made it) nobody wanted to eat it. I was..... I actually don't know what I was because i just went down to our costume closet and put something on an hour before we went trick-or-treating. So it's your choice of what you think I was.
