Christmas Eve

Ho ho ho, ho ho ho, ho, ho, ho, ho ho....Merry Christmas Eve everyone!!!

I woke up to some horrible sounding weather this morning. I could hear the rain hitting my window and I knew what I was in-for on my run. I bucked up,  got dressed and headed out into the weather. It was just rain and no wind thank goodness!
The road was flooded over in one spot and I had to run through it twice. Obstacles are fun!
The flooding!

WET run!


Workout stats:
4.98 miles, 44.:28 time, 8.56 min mile.
36*. RAIN!
Good run. I kept telling myself how thankful I am that today I can run. And I love it. I love how it makes me feel. I love that I know what it feels like to not be able to run and that I can right now, I appreciate it that much more.
I was freezing when I got home and quickly put on PJs, blanket, heat pack and a cup of Bullet proof coffee.
I worked a few hours this morning. The kids did some chores, I wrapped a few more gifts. Then it was time to get our baking on! Lucy and I made Chocolate Chip cookies 2 ways: Regular and Paleo. Then we made 2 different batches of Cinnamon rolls: Regular and Paleo
I prepped our breakfast egg bake and started in on dinner.
This year I made Pizza Fondue. Pizza bites to dip. The kids and Bob loved it. Yay new tradition!
Pretty much loving every minute with this girl!

Yeah, we are baking.
Happy xmas eve!
Fondue with Pizza. New traditions!
