Today begins week 6 of our couch to 5k workout.  Last Wednesday I ran 21 minutes....without stopping.  The reason it was 21 minutes is because my sister Tracy pushed me to run more than my goal of 20 minutes. The girls conveniently spent the night with Giny to avoid this run.  I am excited to finish up this program and be able to run 3 miles.  I am going to run my very first 5k on Dec. 10th.  The kids are going to do the 1 mile fun run.  Not sure they are as excited as I am :)


We had a good Thanksgiving holiday. We got to see alot of family, do some shopping, and spend alot of time at home being lazy.  I celebrated my 37th birthday on Friday doing some Christmas shopping.  Saturday we spent the day at home watching football. 


Dave and I fly to Houston next Tuesday for his first scans since surgery.  He is already getting a little anxious about it.  I have to not think about it or I could get overwhelmed.  I feel like we are gonna get good results. Please pray for peace.  Stupid Cancer!!  It really changes things.  Even though surgery was a success.....there is always a reminder of cancer.  Whether it be knowing there are scans coming up, pains that make Dave wonder if there is something wrong, or just the memories of the treatment and how sick he was last year.  One positive thing about having to go to Houston every three months for scans is that we get to see Sarah and Ron.  Always have to find something positive in there :)
