December, Post 1

Because we are so behind on our posts, and quite a bit has happened in the past month, I'm going to post short little notes from the month of December.

We started the month celebrating Scott's 35th birthday!! As in years past, Scott ran the St. Jude half-marathon in Memphis, TN. Scott really enjoys this run, and although his running is sporadic throughout the year, he seriously trains for the St. Jude run. I've gone to cheer him on in the past, and can honestly say that this is an event that motivates!! I just haven't quite gotten enough motivation to actually run!! This year Scott's sister, Cindi, ran in the race, as well as friends Wendy and Jay. I was also very proud of our friend Glenn who ran the entire marathon! Our good friend, Ian and his girlfriend, Angela, always host our running gang for the race. According to Scott, Ian cooked a fantastic pre-race meal for them!
To officially celebrate Scott's birthday, I surprised him with a delicious dinner at a fancy restaurant in town and then our friends surprised him at home with a dessert party! Scott was totally surprised--he had no clue, which made it great fun for everyone!! Thanks to all that came to the party--it really made Scott feel special to have his friends and their precious children together in his honor! I'll add pictures from that evening to this post soon!
