What's been UP?

We've had some fun life highlights lately! I'll do a brief recap.

1)Bill and Krista ran a 5K prediction race before Thanksgiving. I unofficially walked it. It was a great day. We were all about 30 seconds off our predicted finish time but we had a great time anyway. Krista even got Sis Kneble to run with her.

2)We had a great Thanksgiving in Monroe, UT at the Carter's new house. We had 12 people there. 4 Carters, 5 Roys, 2 Nortons and 1 of Eric's old mission buddies. CJ made us a fabulous dinner. We played many a fun game, even games deemed to intelligent for us lowly types(haha), we went bowling and on Saturday all headed to Provo to see Jamie and LaDon and Ally when they got back from Washington. We enjoyed seeing the lights at Temple square. It was a fun time except for the 5 hours it took to get from DIA to home. We're all looking forward to Christmas when we all gather in Colorado Springs!!!!
The "backseat riders" bored after a few hours decided to sit upside down in the car???

3)Bill began a new decade. Thanks for all you inputs for his great gift. He LOVED it and laughed his head off.Happy Birthday!


4)Today Krista ran a half marathon in Pueblo. It was chilly but a beautiful day and Krista PR'd. She ran a 1:41 and won first place for her age group (19 and younger). It was a GREAT race.You can always tell a good runner by how well they can do a farmer blow. Pretty.
