My friend (and teammate) Chrisie was there, it was so good to finally see her again! We started the "Trot" together, it didn't take too long though before I was struggling. I can't believe what 4 weeks off will do to you....big surprise, right?!? Chrisie was kind enough to hang with me, even when I was like "I can't believe this, I have to walk" (it's a friggin 5k!!!). Finally as we got close to the end I told her to take off, I finished shortly behind her with a time around 33 minutes. Not awful, pretty much what I expected. I just wanted to have fun, and I did!
After the race I headed home to finish getting ready for the Thanksgiving Feast! The turkey was smelling gooooood in the oven!!! Before I knew it my Brother, Sister-in-Law and niece arrived, then shortly after that my parents. Here is a picture of the table 
The dinner went really well, my family loved everything! We had a lot of fun and played some games after dinner (Uno and this new game Pictureka!).
Friday I worked at the mall (I always work Black Friday) and did some shopping! Lots of good stuff!!! Saturday I got up and headed to the gym for Cardio Kickbox class, definitely a good workout! And then this morning I met up with the TNT Alumni group for a run! I only did 3 miles because I had a baby shower to get to, but I'm still glad that I went.
I hope that everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Food looks great!
Thge good thing about the Turkey Trot's is that it allows you to burn calories before we stuff our faces. Not as guilt-ridden.
Dinner looks great! WEll done.
I am glad you had a nice Thanksgiving. Sounds like you had a perfect day.
Sounds like you had a nice Thanksgiving. We froze our butts off at our Turkey Trot too, but it was still fun. :-)
yum yum, that looks like quite a feast. Glad you had a great holiday, I did too.
Yum, those sweet potatoes look delish!
Congrats on getting back to running. I think a time of 33 is pretty good! And I hate having to walk too, that sounded like me. I always think "It's just a 5K, I can handle that" but then I get out there and just suck it up. NOT say that that's what you did...okay I'm digging myself into a hole here.... What did you add to your sweet potatoes, are those cranberries?
Sounds like you had a great Turkey Day! Glad you had fun with the 5k!
What do you mean you worked at the mall? Did you get a second job?
Glad your thanksgiving was great.

Yum, yum, yum! Those sweet potatoes DO look delicious!
That is a great Thanksgiving!
Megan- You know me and retail! Anything for a discount on clothes!! I just help out at Express on Black Friday, and then they call me during the Holidays if they need extra help, but usually I just end up working 1 or 2 times!
That looks good!!!
Nice work! Your turkey looks fantastic! Mine turned out just so-so.....
Way to sneak in all those runs! Isn't it amazing how quickly we lose stamina with time off from running - it is seriously crazy.
