St Jude Half Marathon
It's that time of year again! One of my favorite times of the year--St Jude race time!! Each year since Grayton has been a patient there, I have run as a hero and raised money for St Jude. This year, the heroes raised over 2.8million dollars for St Jude--now that's amazing!!! I love St Jude so very much, not only for all they have done for us and my son, but for what they do every minute of every day for each of their patients!! It truly is an AWESOME place, and if you have never been there, I suggest you go visit and experience what St Jude is really all about--the children! They do such an amazing job putting the focus on the child and not the cancer or the disease. I salute each person that contributes to that amazing hospital, and I feel so blessed to have them right here, literally, in our back yard!! God bless St Jude and each employee, family, and patient there--you all ROCK!!!

Cookie Swap 2010
Sweet Jennie Sherard does a cookie swap every year for the kiddos, and it has become an event we all really look foward to! The kids have so much fun playing with each other while eating tons of cookies, candies, and cupcakes--what more could a kid ask for? Haha! Santa also takes time from his super busy schedule to stop by!

OUR ADDICTION!!

After the birth of Grayton, Jason and I began running and became highly addicted!! I soon made my first jogging stroller purchase, The Tike Tech all terrain single jogger. It was wonderful until I needed another seat for Riley Kate. I got this Dreamer Design off of ebay, and I love it! I call it my freedom and my sanity because I can load up the kids and go running whenever I feel like it! The kids love to stroll. They usually ask to go. We have run several races just for fun--Delta Jubilee 5K, Juke Joint Festival 5K, St. Jude 1/2 Marathon, Double Decker 10K, 300 Oaks 10K, etc. We love to run and if there is a race we can make it to, we'll run it!! We are running about 4 to 5 miles a day now with long runs of 7 to 12 miles on the weekends!
A LITTLE HOBBY OF MINE

Since Grayton's 1st birthday, I have ventured out a bit and started baking and creating my kid's birthday cakes each year. Also, I am the homeroom mother for Grayton's class, so I am trying to get creative with my baking. I am not very good at it, but it is so much fun!! If anyone has any new cute ideas, share them with me.
