I got up early to shuttle Terry to the airport, and then returned home just in time to head over to the Sports Park with the kiddos and Brady's pal Jackson to take part in this year's Turkey Burn 5K. While Abby jogged the whole thing and Brady and Jackson did a mix of walking and jogging, Isaac and I took the path of least resistance and walked it from start to finish. He and I completed the race in almost exactly an hour, and I didn't feel like I was going to keel over, so I call it a win.
When we got back home, I fell asleep in the family room for a few hours and awoke just in time to get dressed for 4pm dinner at Adam's parents' house. It was something of a smaller group than usual this year, but it was still a nice event marked by great food and excellent conversation with family.
And now we're back at our house watching "Christmas Vacation" like we do every year on Thanksgiving evening. It's familiar and comfortable and sweet to look around the dimmed room and see my husband and my babies huddled under blankets watching a movie we've seen many times over.
So yes, it was a beautiful, blessed day with (most of -- if only Logan could be here) my favorite people.
