Turkey Trot!
by Jamie Hinckley on Nov 22, 2012 1
Happy Thanksgiving! It is my favorite time of year and I am loving spending it in beautiful Florida this year! The weather is warm and beautiful and makes us all smile!
This year we did our first Turkey Trot 5k. It is one of our goals to be more active as a family. Today we ran with my big sister and 1st grade niece. We have also signed up our 7 year old to run in his first 5k in Miami in February! He is really excited to get to race with us next time and has committed to practice and train with us for his race.
I wanted to give a shout out to my big sis for her example of getting her family (and mine!) up and out to do fun and active things! She has a new blog that has so many ideas on how to get your family outside and involved in projects together. It is really a pretty awesome and inspiring thing she has going. Check it out at www.littleyellowshack.com
She even has us signed up for paddle boarding next month! It is never to late to make a change in your life and make being active together as a family your lifestyle!
I am especially thankful this year to see measurable progress on our goals from where we were last year at this time! Physically, spiritually, temporally, and financially we have been able to progress and accomplish our family and personal goals! We love each other and have great blessings for fighting through the difficult times together. From paying off the car loan this year to transforming our life into a more active lifestyle we have really made some great changes this year!
I am also thankful for our church for pushing us to set family goals in all of these area at the beginning of this year and pushing us meet them. I love inspiration like that!
Happy Turkey Day!!!!!!!!!!
