Thanksgiving in a hot round-up.
Carson and I actually made it to two parties this year, but so far I only have pictures from one. Mainly because our host Kelly uploaded hers by 7 am the next day and I have yet to put mine on my computer 5 days later. Therefore, I did some photoshop effects to hers and am co-opting them until I can get my game face on and upload my own like an adult.
Additionally, this turkey was the best one ever. All I can say is: Carolina Herrerra’s secret recipe. Goldmine. Mom, yo’u’re still totes the best at like, everything else.

Some gems from Slate's "Write like Sarah Palin" contest
Runner-up:
“It was only then, after I had removed the saddle from the moose, that I noticed the sweet sound of the warblers singing while perched on the fence post reminding me that unlike New York, Wasilla would always have my heart which not only pumps red, but also white and blue.”
—Brian Breighner
Second place:
“Here’s a little news flash for your Department of Media: Superman’s parents chose life and he was adopted in small-town USA by real Americans who run our factories, harvest our meat-bearing animals, and wave Old Glory down at the courthouse and the churches, not in Washington D.C. by cynical power-brokers and liberal scientists.”
—Steve Aydt
and finally…
First place:
“One night after a long day of campaigning, when the haters had made my spirits reach a nadir, I looked into Todd’s eyes, which were as blue as the stripes on Old Glory, and too representing truth and loyalty, and he looked back at me with a twinkle of determination which I hadn’t seen since I told him my goal of having another baby in my fifties and naming it Tron, then did I know for sure that I could carry on, like he, and we, have done together all of these years on this long, Iron Dog race of a marriage that is at once grueling and celestial, onerous and majestic.”
—Ann Sensenbrenner
Hilarious. Read the rest here. They are worth it.

Marathoning
I am so excited to cheer on my marathoners this weekend! They have been working so hard to get to this point, and honestly, I am in awe of how hard they have worked to get here. While watching them train has truly destroyed any interest I may have had in ever running one, I think it is great they have all gotten together to run it and have worked so hard at completing such a feat. Not to mention the collective $10,000 + they have raised for their collective charities.
Thus, in no particular order, good luck and congrats to:
1) Lindsay
2) Carson
3) Nick
4) Connor
5) Hunter
Kick some ass kids!
