First but probably not last

While it has been almost 2 months since the last post, we have been busy here in the Wismer household. Tiffany has be semi-training (as much as she could) for a 1/2 marathon in Las Vegas over the last weekend. I ran with a friend from Colorado Springs, Nicole and her friend, Selena. I also had college friends that ran as well, but did not get to see them as much as I would have liked, it was a CRAZY weekend.
We flew in Saturday morning and spent the day picking up packets and getting ready for the race. The race was Sunday morning, and we all happily finished the race. While not a record breaking time, I was happy with my 2 hour 45 minute time since I probably could have trained harder than I did. My original goal was 2 hours 30 minutes, so I was not that far off. I think next time my time should improve at least a little:) It was a chilly morning, but once the running started it was perfect! Here is a pic of the 3 of us after the race
Ben and Jeremy (Nicole's husband) met up with us after the race, it was fun to have them there to support us, knowing they were waiting for us helped a lot. Ben as always is the best husband ever supporting me through the process and being my biggest cheerleader, which I needed at the end.
We spent the rest of the day lounging around and taking it easy. We had WONDERFUL Indian food for dinner, saw Penn and Teller and the crashed. What a great day with great friends!
The rest of the time over the last 2 months has been busy with Thanksgiving, a fun day at Susan and Brian's with both our families. We had the kids Christmas programs and zoolights. We are getting ready to celebrate Christmas, the house is decorated and Ben and I are going shopping on Monday, so that will be done.
I will post video and pics from the last couple months soon, but I have to go get a massage!
Happy Holidays!
