(1) All of you who linked up with our Virtual Turkey Trot. Here are a couple of additional reports I got in yesterday.
Texas
My Fellow OSU in Aggieland friend ran her 5K while she was in Canyon for the holidays. Turns out, she ran it up and down the hills in Palo Duro Canyon, which was beautiful, but probably a major work out. Way to go!

Illinois
Hometown Friend was our Illinois representative and ran her 5K on Friday at the University of Illinois in Champaign. Just looking at this picture makes me want to go put on gloves and a scarf.
Arizona
Mrs. Arizona did her run at the Turkey Trot held at the Phoenician in Phoenix. A bit warmer than poor Hometown friend in Illinois. And no, they did not run in black tie attire. She forgot to take a picture but had this one from the weekend before. She classes things up a bit!
Texas, Wyoming, Oklahoma, Iowa, Arkansas, Washington, Colorado, Illinois, New Mexico, Arizona, California, and Utah. For those of you counting....that's 12 states! WOO HOO! The donations will be made to the Salvation Army and Toys for Tots this week. Thank you so much for participating!
(2) The fact that this time next week I will be on a plane to Vegas to meet up with my parents and The Boy from Texas at the National Finals Rodeo. My dad and I have wanted to go for years and we're making it happen!
(3) This blog by my friend Little Miss. She wrote about the best advice she ever received from someone that you all know well from this blog, Mrs. Hepburn. It's worth reading and worth thinking about!
(4) This article about the 5 most annoying ways to post you are engaged on Facebook cracked me up. (If you read this, do not pay attention to the fact that I bragged on my boyfriend buying me flowers in #2 above, which is made fun of in #5 of the article...) I laughed for like 10 minutes. My favorite line was the one about it being the Jager talking. Ha! I was relieved, however, to know that my plan to get a billboard was not deemed annoying. Phew. A girl has to keep her options open.

That's great that you guys got 12 states! Well done, everyone who ran!
I - as you noticed I'm sure - did not. I could blame it on my need to use up a bunch of barre class passes before they expire tomorrow, which has occupied the evenings that didn't have social obligations. But frankly, you know me well enough to know that I probably wouldn't have run anyway. :)

Well, I would have loved to run with you guys to represent Montana. HOWEVER...something about 37 weeks pregnant and it being 10 degrees outside just wasn't gonna happen :)
