Ridgefield Fun Run

My work sponsored a 5K this weekend here in Ridgefield. Aaron and I have never run in one before so we thought we'd give it to try! I suppose we wouldn't have been doing anything better at 7:30 in the morning... just sleeping. Malia's auntie Laura also came along and was the designated stroller pusher. (Thanks Laura!)

It was freezing cold on Saturday during the run. The roads were still pretty frozen, and there were patches of ice along the way. We had Malia in two pairs of pants (with leggings underneath), a long-sleeved onesie, long sleeved shirt, sweatshirt, AND coat. Then we topped her off with a blanket. I think she survived ok.

Maybe you are wondering how we did? We weren't fast or anything, okay, we weren't fast at all. We placed 69-71 out of 130, and our time was 38min and 22seconds. I am just proud to say I ran in a 5K :)

All Decorated!

Here are a few pics of the finished product. I LOVE decorating for Christmas! It was late Monday night, so Malia was in the process of getting her P.J.'s on... thus the onesie.

I absolutely love this next picture! Malia was having fun posing by the fireplace, and then would scream (in excitement) and run at me so that she could see what the picture looked like on the camera. This one has to be my favorite... too bad she isn't wearing something cute! We could have used it for Christmas cards!
